Israeli soldiers have killed six Palestinians, including a Hamas leader, during a large raid into the Gaza Strip.
Israeli troops backed by tanks moved into the Gaza Strip town of Khan Yunis before dawn and surrounded the home of wanted Islamic militant Bassam Kadih.
Soldiers opened fire when the Hamas fighter tried to flee with another person.
The army says the two were blown apart when bullets struck a bomb Mr Kadih was carrying.
The second victim has been identified as the Hamas militant's wife.
Several other Palestinians have also been killed in gun battles with Israeli troops in Gaza.
Among the dead is an armed fighter from Hamas.
A suspected rocket factory was also bulldozed during the raid.

Maybe they went directly to hell.
Maybe it takes a bit of time and they are arriving in hell just now.

Wow, they didn't surround themselves with a bunch of toddlers and infants?
I guess they didn't see it coming...

They keep this up and eventually there will be no more Hamas or Hezbullah left. Then perhaps there can be peace.

Sharon seeks Bush support for Gaza plan to silence critics MARCH 18TH.
http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/front_4.html
Special to World Tribune.com - MIDDLE EAST NEWSLINE Thursday, March 18, 2004 - JERUSALEM – Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has been negotiating with the White House over the extent of U.S. support for unilateral Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.
Israeli officials said Sharon's withdrawal plan has elicited positive feedback from aides of President George Bush. But the White House has refused to commit to formal U.S. support for Sharon's intention to withdraw from the Gaza Strip and parts of the West Bank.
