She's so beautiful. Such a shame that her life ended due to blind hatred. But Bush says Islam is a religion of peace so we should just shut up and not draw obvious conclusions no?

Sad,sad,sad. I have a daughter her age and just can't imagine. These cowards go out of their way to target innocent women and children. And what's even more sad is that Arab and Islamic groups in this country probably won't condemn this attack and in private will celebrate the killings. Losers. All of them.

We may not be profiling THEM.

But they sure as hell are profiling US.

We in the West are going to have to relearn the utility of good, honest hatred of an enemy. We cannot long afford the folly of tolerating, even esteeming people who wish us the gravest harm.

Airport shooting victims mourned
Daily Telegraph

A LOVING father and a beautiful young woman have been named as the two victims of a crazed Egyptian gunman who opened fire at Los Angeles airport.

The heartbroken families mourned their loss as the FBI launched a worldwide probe into the killer, 41-year-old Hesham Mohamed Hadayet, who also died.

"It appears he went there with the intention of killing," said FBI agent Richard Garcia.

"We are still trying to determine why he did that."

The shooting came amid heightened US security for the first Independence Day holiday since the September 11 attacks on Washington and New York.

Aiport worker Victoria Hen, 25, died after two bullets hit her in the chest at the ticket counter of the Israeli airline El Al.

She was born in Israel and had moved to the US with her parents, Avinoam and Rachel, 12 years ago.

"She was daddy's girl," her uncle told an Israeli newspaper. "The first time her father wasn't next to her, she caught two bullets in the chest."

The second victim, Yaakov Aminov, 46, was taking a friend to the airport for a trip home to Israel.

After he was shot, Aminov collapsed in the arms of his friend, said his brother-in-law, Mark Ezerzer.

The jewellery shop owner was waiting to be a father again. He and his pregnant wife Anat already had five children, aged two to nine.

Aminov migrated from Israel 13 years ago. He has an ex-wife and three other children in Israel.

The FBI said Hadayet used a .45-calibre pistol and 15cm knife in the attack.

He was also armed with a 9mm pistol and extra ammunition and magazines for the guns.

"One security guard was wrestling with him while he was shooting," an FBI spokesman said.

"The El Al security guard left the counter, fired one round at some range, then fired one or more rounds as he closed, because that man continued to fire and also had the knife with a six-inch blade in the other hand.

"While the struggle was happening, the second security guard came in after firing on the subject.

"A third bystander also joined in, trying to wrestle him to the ground.

"While they were in that position on the ground, the subject stabbed the second security guard, who fired on him three times."

Hadayet was not on any FBI watch lists.

He owned a limousine service and held a green card that allowed him to work in the US where he had lived for a decade.

FBI agent Garcia said the investigation had uncovered no anti-Israeli or anti-Jewish sentiments on Hadayet's part. His wife and two children had left last week for a trip to Egypt.

"We don't know whether or not it was a planned trip," Garcia said.

He said investigators had removed a computer from Hadayet's home, and were waiting for a warrant to see what information was on it.
