In a new threat, the Islamic [terrorist] group Hamas said Thursday it has ordered "all military cells" to take immediate action and carry out more attacks on Israelis.
The group also urged foreigners to leave Israel for their own safety.
Hamas has threatened bloody revenge for Israel's attempt earlier this week to kill one of its leaders, Abdel Aziz Rantisi. The Hamas co-founder and pediatrician escaped with minor injuries from an Israeli helicopter missile strike.
On Wednesday, a Hamas bomber blew himself up on a Jerusalem bus, killing 16 people and wounding more than 70.
Hamas said in a statement Thursday that more attacks would follow.
The bus bombing "is the beginning of a new series of attacks and part of a bill the Zionists must pay," a Hamas statement said.
"We call upon all foreigners to evacuate the Zionist entity immediately in order to protect their lives," Hamas said. "We call on all military cells to act immediately and act like an earthquake to blow up the Zionist entity and tear it to pieces."

Its time for Israel to EXTERMINATE Hamas. They are a plague and should be dealt with as such. The deaths of the two Hamas butchers by Israel this morning were a good start...I hope they FINISH the job!

Well we (the collective we of the New Alliance fighting the Axis of Evil) need to position OURSELVES so that we need to warn innocent bystanders to leave the whole of the territory of the PA. Then, let her rip. Screw the roadmap.
