Conflicting reports emerged Sunday regarding the fate of top Hamas military commander Ahmed Ja'abri, who may have been killed in one of the hundreds of Israeli air strikes against Hamas infrastructure in the Gaza Strip.

Since Operation Cast Lead began on Saturday, the air force has flown over 300 sorties over the Strip, bombing close to 280 different targets. Palestinian and Israeli sources said that Ja'abri, the overall commander of Hamas's armed wing, Izaddin Kassam, may have been killed in an air strike on a mosque which he frequented.

Sources close to Hamas in the Gaza Strip said they could neither confirm nor deny the report. They said that the bodies of many of the victims had yet to be identified and that several bodies were still under the rubbles of demolished buildings.

Killed in a Mosque. It was the will of ALLAH!

"FTA .. ... at least 50 percent of Hamas's underground rocket launchers had been bombed ..."

Tomorrow's another day. Go back and hit the other 50 percent.

"Izaddin Kassam, may have been killed in an air strike on a mosque which he frequented."

I guess he didn't have a prayer.

LOLOL!

My solution is that for every rocket or mortar originating in Gaza, Israel take permanently 10 yards of Gaza, starting in the North, and pushing the populace South. After a few miles have been taken and it gets really crowded, maybe the Pales will stop rocketing Israel. Maybe not. Their problem.

[dr_who]

Poor, poor Rahm Emanuel.

[Colorado Doug]

You two advocate carpet bombing and killing 1.3 million Palestinian civilians in Gaza?

Seriously. Is that your “solution”?

How do you feel about the 5,542,000 Jews that these people want exterminated? The Palestinians could live in peace any time they wanted to.

Seriously, how hard is it to just stop lobbing rockets at Israeli civilians?

[erman]

well he did say earlier last month that he didn't care if he was killed....

IDF just helping him keep his word.

did I forget to add, "too bad, so sad". I only regret that they didn't use 20 megatons and target every mosque that declares a "jihad" against Israel.

I'm so sick of their whining, I wish they would just shut up and die.

There should be a cost.

I don't buy into the "peace when Palis love their children etc."--

We have peace with Germany and Japan but it came after military defeat and unconditional surrender and a half century of occupation.

No peace after a paper which is torn up a la Munich, and the current ongoing roadmap sham.

You attack us, we destroy a piece of you--when you have had enough then we see if it's peace--

[Munz]

now for a moment of silence, long enough?

[Lurker]

I advocate shoving them into Egypt at the point of a bayonet and killing any that resist.

THEN carpet bomb. Then 24 hour artillery strikes. Then nerve gas.

Can't be too careful.

[Uncle Miltie]

I do appreciate your thoroughness.

[Lurker]

I try. These savages have been screaming "death to everybody who isn't us" for a thousand years.

It's time to start giving them more death than they can handle.

[forkinsocket]

F**k him & good riddance.

[Billthedrill]

Well, I'm for sending flowers. To his funeral. A great, big, wailing, ululating Hamas funeral.

I'd wrap 'em around a Daisy Cutter.

[Vinnie_Vidi_Vici]

In the original clip, they got off 3 rounds before the counter battery fire took them out.

[patton]

Ah. Ok, I can believe that.
