Hamas explodes U.S. vehicles in massive attack

Largest terror op in 3 years was to 'execute mass killings and abductions'

JAFFA, Israel – Hamas used two seized U.S. military vehicles to carry out a large-scale attack this weekend against a major Israeli border crossing, Hamas leaders told WND.

The vehicles were captured when Hamas last June took complete control of the Gaza Strip, overtaking all U.S.-backed security compounds in the territory associated with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party. The U.S. provided Fatah with weapons, vehicles and large sums of financial and military aid.

Israeli defense officials called yesterday's border attack the largest, most sophisticated Hamas terrorist operation since Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005.

"We utilized two American armored Jeep vehicles in the heroic operation at Kerem Shalom," said Abu Abdullah, who is considered one of the most important operational members of Hamas' so-called military wing. "We obtained the vehicles last June."

Hamas knows Israel will wait for US elections to be over.

War is inevitable...

Paging Jimmy Carter...

Does this mean that Arabs will start liking us now that Israelis are being killed with US weapons?

If a Democrat is elected you can bank on it. Two reasons. Count on natural instability during a transition, and our enemies side with Democrats and will immediately test how much they will be able to get away with. With Obama it won't be a pretty picture and I hope Israel grasps this and prepares accordingly.

Hamas: "All those in favor of pushing the Jews into the sea, say 'Aye'..."
AYE!
Carter: "Democracy, isn't it magnificent?"

Perhaps they feel a bit embolden by Jimmah’s visit.

What a nice send off for him.
