Israeli commandos storm aid flotilla; 9 killed By AMY TEIBEL and TIA GOLDENBERG, Associated Press Writers     JERUSALEM – Israeli naval commandos stormed a flotilla of ships carrying aid and hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists to the blockaded  Gaza Strip  on Monday, killing nine passengers in a botched raid that provoked international outrage and a diplomatic crisis. Dozens of activists and six Israeli soldiers were wounded in the bloody predawn confrontation in  international waters . The violent takeover dealt yet another blow to Israel's international image, already tarnished by war crimes accusations in  Gaza  and its 3-year-old blockade of the impoverished Palestinian territory. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanhayu  canceled a much-anticipated meeting with  President Barack Obama  in Washington on Tuesday in a sign of just how

Little Rock school security supervisor arrested  Little Rock Ark May 9 2010 Fox news A Little Rock school supervisor is in trouble with the law.

Cops Kill a Child While Filming a Reality Show Posted on 19 May 2010 by DoctorQ  on Cop Block... In one of the most disturbing police-related stories I’ve read about in a long time, a member of a SWAT team gunned down a seven year-old girl named Aiyana Jones in the early hours of the morning as she slept on a couch with her grandmother. The police were conducting a raid on the Detroit apartment she lived in to serve an arrest warrant for a murder suspect.
