1. New Headline? "Palestinian Officer Is Killed After Attacking Three Israeli Soldiers"

I'm wondering if what you posted was the original headline - and if so that's ridiculous.

2. Good catch

From the article:

"A Palestinian policeman shot three Israeli soldiers, seriously wounding two, at a West Bank checkpoint on Sunday before being killed by soldiers, the Israeli military said."

No, actually NY Times got the headline right on this one, fortunately.

Other headlines on same story from Google News:

Palestinian shot dead after alleged gun attack
Another Palestinian shot dead by IOF, under alleged car ramming (Palestine News Network)
West Bank shooting wounds 3 Israeli soldiers, attacker killed (MWC news)
Israeli Forces Shot Palestinian Dead (Capital TV, Pakistan)

Ban-Ki Moon must really feel the terrorist's pain.
