Israel knows who he is. The Palestinians can't go for a drive without Israel knowing about it. Sooner or leter they will get him too.

Martyrs? They sound more like cowards to me.

I've noted the odd lack of scorch marks on the car. You would've thunk a Hellfire would have made one hell of a fire. Maybe the explosion was so big it blew the flames out.

Unlike the terrorists, Israel doesn't kill the innocent on purpose and they do their best to prevent it.

BTTT

This is the reason they failed to kill him, but only injure him, the first time, because they used a too small of a bomb when they dropped it on an apartment building. The Israeli military is very humane.

I just read an article over on Google News that said, "Israel's Army Radio reported Mahmoud Zahar, second in command to Rantisi, had been appointed to oversee the group in Gaza, . . ."

Zahar. Dead in a month.

The new Hamas leader will be one of the first Islamic men in world history to be compelled to understand how Islamic women feel wearing a burqa when out in public.

LOL, with or without burqa the IDF will find him.

Interesting thought.

I wonder how the Palestinians would handle having Israeli citizens walk into their stores or market places and detonate bomb vests full of ball bearings.

I wonder if they'd even understand it all.

It is a new missile they just developed. It is like a hellfire but you can target a single human target instead of a tank.

It has most of the explosives removed for more electronics. It is fiber-optic wire guided similar to a tow.

They can target one person in a crowd and pick him off without killing everyone, they are even trying to make it better.

I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see this technology used for our own friend Sadr in Iraq.

That would be sweet.

So, is it basically a kinetic energy weapon? It just hits them so hard they crinkle?

You know, you just said what I've been thinking but it looks better in print. Get Al-Sadr with the same kind of missile that will blow just him away. I still remember when Israel sent a missile through the window of an office and blew up just the guy sitting at the desk, and no others (forget who it was now; too many targeted "assassinations" ago). Hope Israel allows us to get our hands on this missile system, like fast, so we can eliminate Al-Sadr quickly.

No it does explode. Yahoo had a graphic of the missile with the Yassim story.

It shows the Apache gunner targeting one person on a street corner.

It talked about how the gunner can redirect the missile to another target or cause the missile to self destruct.

Regisstered, for once I have to say that your work is incomplete. You left out the beard stubble and the pockmarks on the face, and the nose is much too small.

Just damn. The next thing you know, the IDF is going to be using DNA-seeking missles. Hats off to Israeli R&D.

There is a book called White Storm about a virus engineered to attack certain groups of people based upon their DNA.

The only problem was in the book, the virus mutated killing off all humans in Ireland.

When the new leader of Hamas was killed we all cheered, we were driving in our car so I couldn't get online to chat or post.

Anyone who thinks this guy wasn't going to attack Americans is a fool.

Look what he says in his own words:

One should remember he has murdered Americans. The 3 Americans killed in that Convoy attack in Gaza, in addition to the Hebrew University bombing which murdered 5 Americans.

Hamas Chooses New Leader After Slaying
1 minute ago

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - The Palestinian militant group Hamas appointed a replacement for Abdel Aziz Rantisi on Sunday but declined to identify him after losing two leaders in less than a month to assassination by Israel.


Will he wear a burqa?
