I Hope Obama or Petreaus Won't Be Blaming Israel For This Tragedy

On the background of the controversy surrounding David Petreaus' remarks, I hopethis tragedy is not blamed on Israel:

Ian Deutch survived a recent tour of duty in Afghanistan, identifying Taliban targets for artillery strikes. But he didn't make it through his second day back on the job as a rural Nevada sheriff's deputy. Deutch was gunned down Monday by a man wielding an assault rifle in a casino parking lot about 60 miles west of Las Vegas...

..."The irony of spending a year overseas in a combat zone and then to come back and have this happen is, you know, tragic," said Lt. Col. Scott Cunningham, a Las Vegas resident and commanding officer of Deutch's guard unit...

...Deutch's mother told the Las Vegas Review-Journal she was devastated by her son's death. "He was finally safe. In our country. And somebody here kills him," Suzy Deutch said.

...DeMeo called the shooting that killed Deutch "an unprovoked attack." "The deputies just pulled up. He was just getting out of the driver's side when the guy opened fire," the sheriff told AP...Deutch was wearing a bulletproof vest, but DeMeo said at least one shot from the assault rifle pierced his body armor. He was flown by medical helicopter to University Medical Center in Las Vegas, where he underwent surgery but died late Monday...
