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.

If I adjusted for windage and drop, I’d still hit it.

Her profile says she is a student in New York. What is she doing in the West Bank? Who paid for her trip there?

I consider the humor surrounding this horrible injury to be vitreous.

Somewhat ironic, this image seems to be on her site:
She may want to take special care of the other one since she seems to be an artist.

The IDF member who shot this woman should be sternly reprimanded for the following reason:
Nazis should be shot in the eye until one of two things happen:
1) They stop being Nazis
2) You run out of ammo.
She's still a Nazi and he didn't run out of ammo.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I have seen this before. Either you look at the incoming object or the person who is real close picks the eye as a target. Now she has the red badge of -——————————.
