First Umad Mughniyeh takes the 72-virgin ride with a Bashar Assad Special. Now Ayman Atallah Fayed gets blasted in the most literal sense of the word. Both men were high-ranking members of terrorist groups arrayed against Israel. Coincidence?
A powerful blast went off in the house of a senior Islamic Jihad activist Friday, killing him, his wife and daughter, along with three neighbors, medics and an Islamic Jihad spokesman said. Islamic Jihad claimed Israeli warplanes struck the home of Ayman Atallah Fayed. Israel denied it had launched any airstrike in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza where Fayed lived. Hamas police said the cause of the blast was not clear.
Witnesses reported seeing fragments of what looked like locally produced rockets at the scene, suggesting the house may have been used to store arms
.
Of course, the explosion could have something to do with the fact that Fayed had his family living on a pile of bombs. Perhaps someone was tinkering with one in the house and connected the right wire at the wrong time. That also could have created the huge scope of the blast. With a lot of ordnance inside, a single explosion could have been amplified greatly through the secondary explosions of the other rockets.
It does seem more than a little coincidental, though. Leading members of two of Israel's biggest enemies getting their martyrdom visas stamped within days of each other would be awfully lucky for the Israelis. Unless, of course, the Israelis were the ones stamping those visas in the first place.
Does oxy-clean work on ‘pink mist’ ?
and, I just love hearing it!
What goes around, comes around... Justice is served. Next.
Live by the home-made rocket, die by the home-made rocket. Or the Israelis got another one. Either way, a happy story.
Perhaps that satellite the Indians just lauched for Israel contained more than just some cameras.
These two killings, plus the predator snuffing of Al-Libi in January, and the strike on the Syrian site last September - things are happening! It’s as if Bush and Israel said “Okay, enough is enough, let’s go get ‘em.” I hope this continues, Big Time!
Sounds like a good movie!
Could this have been another “Work Related” accident, or an “On The Job” injury?
With the MSM not reporting on anything in the middle east and with the fairly good chance of a Obama, we may only have about 11 months to take out the trash.
Looks like everyone is getting busy.
Gotta love Israel, even if they didn’t do this one.
Yep, that’s what I’m thinking too.
I hope we did it.
Hope so. God bless our troops & IDF, and grant us swift victory.
You mean like Rods from the Gods?
Okay, bear with my foil hat for just a sec here.
Last count I heard was NINE undersea cables cut.
Were they laying the groundwork as some of us suspected?
Perhaps cutting communication between enemy factions?
At any rate, sounds like a winner! Go garbagemen go!
Who? mwa ha ha ha ha

A million times YES, You da' bomb, man!
bump, bump, bump
That was a weird-looking blast scene, his jeep, looked like something out of Terminator.
Mugniyah and Fayed were both bomb makers. Perhaps the common link is as simple as Hammas/Hezbollah making an unstable batch of High-Ex...or poor quality detonators, etc.
If so, then consider that the above are their A-Team. Now their B-Team gets to handle such inferior materials.
Would the result be any fewer casualties?!
How many #2 and #3 guys do you have to kill before the #4’s and 5’s that move up the chain, just happen to be incompetent?
Cuz according the news, we’ve killed a lot of #2’s........
(Nobody over the age of 13 is permitted to key off of this straight line.)
Cutting the cables was almost assuredly to identify the physical addresses of senders and/or originators of certain enemy signals (by narrowing down available transmission pathways and applying large amounts of computing power and ELINT).
So it's not out of the question to think that the identified enemy sender/receivers will start winding up dead.
PING!
ZOT!
Who got zot?
God only knows! ;^)
Pali go BOOM!
Someone lower in the organization is probably edging for a promotion and is hedging his bet by offing his superiors. He’s probably also counting on being able to blame Israel or the U.S. for the “assassinating” those same superiors.
Probably someone who watched too many “007” movies.
Good news sometimes happens because bad news is coming. Israel may be taking whatever steps they can now because they believe a democrat will be our next president.
I get the feeling Israel is giving the US the brush-off because they feel that the future political leaders coming around the bend are going to clamp down on the Mossad and its hit squad, most likely also delay any new weapons or armament so my guess Israel is right now poised with its hand on the trigger. If they can cull the Hamass right now I am glad they are, they have much better balls than our leadership in the US.
And... If you order now, I will include a second bottle for the low, low price of $19.95.
Little known fact - Cold Warrior / science fiction writer / computer columnist / modern Renaissance man Jerry Pournelle came up with the concept for Rods from Gods in 1964, when it was called it Project Thor. Quite a hammer, no doubt.
Maybe it was a God thing.
Sleeping on a bed of bombs... is bound to have some bugs.
I'm gonna be sorry too, I'm gonna be sorry too, the hell I am. The wive's won't be available to spawn anymore terrorist trash with some other husband, the children won't be available to grow into terrorist trash. They have no compunction about killing our wives and children. People living close to them are terrorists supporters too. They've defined the playing field over and over again. Kill them all and let their vile allah sort it out. Never forget, Bobby Stetham was murdered on Valentine's Day. Never forget, USS Cole, Khobar Towers, 9/11, and on and on.
BTTT
Do you think they didn't know that Daddy was a murderous terrorist or that they were living in a bomb factory?
One report I read on the death of Mugniyah was that he was walking on a sidewalk when a bomb inside a parked car exploded. If that is true, it would make it a little harder for the explosion to have been caused by mishandling one of his own bombs.
If I wasn’t so negative, I’d take this as evidence someone is going to bomb Iran soon.

8 dead, 10 alive. We’ve still got work to do.
And then we have the Russia-China-North Korea-Venezuela-Cuba axis to worry about....
Unfortunately, since they are using the widowed women and the orphaned kids as suicide bombers ("Be a martyr and get back at the Americans who killed your husband/father" I would guess they are told), it sadly probably was for the best that the whole house / building / area go taken out...
