US Woman Loses Eye in Israeli Protest
Newser.com ^ | June 2, 2010 | AP

An American woman lost her eye yesterday during a demonstration in Jerusalem against Israel's naval raid on a Gaza aid flotilla. Maryland college student Emily Henochowicz, 21, was hit in the face by a tear gas canister shot by an Israeli border policeman and underwent surgery in a local hospital, where she is now recuperating.

The young woman was in Jerusalem, not on the ship. We don’t know what she was doing in Jerusalem. She could have been an activist fomenting trouble, or she could have been a tourist, or on a break from volunteering at a kibbutz.

Seriously, it helps to read these articles before posting. Maybe that’s just too much to ask.

Now she has 3 things in common with Mullah Omar.

She hates the U.S., she hates Israel, and she looks like a pirate.

Wish I could say I am sorry for this far left, terrorist facilitator, but I am not.
Sleep with dogs, wake up with fleas. She is lucky she only lost an eye.
Her Palestinian pals usually blow up Israeli women and children into smithereens.

On top of the West Bank
All covered with gas
I lost my poor eyeball
(Some say I’m an ass)

It popped out of its socket
And onto the ground
And then my poor eyeball
Rolled off of the mound

It rolled into the crowd
And under a bush
I lost my poor eyeball
All due to George Bush

In the middle of a recession when most of us have no money to buy food, I'm supposed to have sympathy for some college student who took a trip to Israel to defend terrorists?

Is that where this liberal media report is going?

If so, I can only respond by saying THANK GOD THERE IS OBAMACARE SO WOMAN WILL ONE DAY SEE AGAIN.

No seriously though, this woman can kiss my ass. I'll be thinking about her and all the money she spent on this trip while I'm job hunting....

Don’t beat me up for this if I’m wrong, but a buddy of mine (trusted source) sent a blast email out to our posse today. It said that R. Lee Ermey (Gunny Hartman) died today from complications arising from pneumonia.

D’oh! She could have stayed in College Park and waited for the post-game riots. Saved herself the travel time.

"In this case, it was a tear gas canister for an eye."

Which shows that the Israeli cop has a sense of eyerony.

I was out of line, too. This is an emotional issue to most of us. And I, too, have been “having fun” on another thread on yet another issue.

Fortunately proved to be a hoax.

He was seen at a Memorial Day event.
