The woman, a 29-year-old divorcee, was killed by a barrage of gunshots while standing at the entrance to her home.Meanwhile, "militants" are targeting internet cafes. Fundamentalist Islamists in Gaza have begun a campaign of bombing and arson against Internet cafes, pharmacies and pool halls.I guess they have watched "The Music Man" one too many times.
