Terrorists score hit on aide to Israeli minister

Palestinian Arabs firing from the Gaza Strip Friday moderately wounded an advisor to Israeli Security Minister Avi Dichter who was touring the area with him.

Dichter was unhurt in the attack, which happened while he was showing a group of visiting Canadian Jews how close to Gaza is the Negev town of Sderot - which is regularly targeted by Arab rockets.

A gaggle of "Palestinian" terrorist organizations, who all work together in any case, rushed to take credit for the shooting.

One source said an Al-Qaeda group had been behind the shooting.

For its part Hamas claimed one of its snipers had been aiming for Dichter when it hit the aide, Matti Gill.

Gill, speaking on his way to the hospital, said the "Palestinians" can shoot at Jews all they want. "We'll respond by dedicating more new Torah scrolls," he reportedly said.
