And again: Terrorist shoots 9-year old girl in Psagot

A 'Palestinian' terrorist infiltrated the security fence of the Jewish town of Psagot on Saturday evening, and shot and seriously wounded a 9-year old girl.
"We're attempting to establish whether this was a sniper or a terrorist who entered Psagot," a senior army source said.

The girl was evacuated from the scene in serious condition but conscious, to Shaare Tzedek Hospital in Jerusalem.

West Bank police said the girl had been playing in the yard of her house when she was hit by a shot to the upper body.

The spokesman for Psagot, David Tzviel, said that they know for a fact that the shooter infiltrated the settlement, and that the girl was not shot by a sniper. He said he based this on the testimony of the girl, who told rescue personnel that she saw the man who shot her enter her yard, come up onto the balcony and shoot her.

He added that the settlement is still on lock-down, and that residents have not been told they can leave their houses yet.

Tzviel said that an emergency siren was sounded in the settlement to alert residents of the danger, and that at the moment IDF troops and the settlement emergency response team are still searching for the shooter.

Magen David Adom spokesman Zaki Heller said the girl was shot in the upper chest, adding that paramedics from the Jerusalem district received a report at 9:23 p.m. of an injured minor.

Shlomo Petrobar, who heads MDA's Jerusalem District, lives in Psagot and arrived together with an ambulance at the scene of the shooting.

Petrobar said he realized his neighbor had been shot, and scrambled out of his home with medial equipment, finding the girl in her living room with a gunshot wound in her chest.

"I sat her down and began providing her with medical attention. She was fully conscience and I could communicate with her. Within a short period of time a Magen David Adom ambulance crew arrived and evacuated her," Petrobar said.

A second paramedic on the scene, Yoni Hacohen, said the girl was frightened and in pain. "She spoke to us on the way the whole time. She was a real hero and we told her so," he said.
Israel Radio's midnight news reported that the girl's condition has been upgraded to 'light-to-moderate' and that she remains fully conscious.

The next group of 'Palestinian' terrorists is scheduled to be released from Israeli prisons in the coming days.

The Israeli government could care less about a little girl's life.

The killers of Jewish children must be appeased! Besides that, a Jewish life has never been worth much in Israel.

And the morons who run Israel's government won't learn any lasting lessons from the incident in Psagot.

What could go wrong indeed
