Hamas ‘Experts’ Kill Foreign Journalist while Neutralizing Tank Shell

Hamas' so-called sappers managed to kill themselves and a foreign journalist Wednesday.

Hamas terrorists accidentally killed at least four and maybe five of their own members and an Italian photo journalist Wednesday when they tried dismantling what apparently was an IDF artillery shell that did not explode.

The Italian civilian was reportedly working for several news agencies, including Associated Press, according to the Greek news service ANSA.

Several others, including a Gaza journalist and medics, were wounded in the blast around 11 a.m. in Beit Lahiya, located in northern Gaza.

The incident occurred in a civilian neighborhood, one of Hamas’ favorite areas for launching rockets and using human shields to attack Israel.

As tragic as the death of the journalist is, the sappers’ bungling parallels the terrorist organization’s military, diplomatic blunders in the war, not to mention its horrendous war crimes that have exposed Hams for what it is.

It remains to be seen if Hamas blames Israel for the death of a civilian because it failed to explode a bomb aimed at terrorists.

Pah. The terrorists are wimps.
If they REALLY believed in their cause they would WILLINGLY be martyrs.

Remember the Buddhist monks who set themselves on fire?
Not to mention those Christians of Roman days.

Bonus points.

Do they still get the 72 virgins?

Given the tone of Italian coverage, the chances that the Italian photographer was not a Hamas fan are small.

Hamas might want to consider that some unexploded ordinance is booby trapped to kill their so-called sappers.
The Germans did that to the English during WW2.

Assuming that the journalist worked for Al Jezeera, that means the shell worked as planned. 4 terrorist plus a terrorist that writes.

"As tragic as the death of the journalist is..."

Maybe in the writer's simplistic and corrupted little mind it's "tragic".

It is a WONDERFUL event, cause for celebration, when any ally of or any of those scum gets whacked...

No loss.
