I have heard that Fox reported that the palistinians are already firing mortars at jewish settlements...Anyone seen any articles on this??

A simple solution ... fire up a battery of MLRS launchers and put them on counterbattery duty .... problems like mortars wil get solved really quickly.

And shell this b@st@rd's funeral with a battalion of 155m guns.

West Bank and Gaza sealed off, per FoxNews

Hamas is going to go nuts. I pray that Israelis will be safe.

Oh, I think the Israelis can take care of themselves.
The terrorists of Hamas, on the other hand, are most definitely not safe.

Arafat has already picked out a casket.

"Palestinian general strike after Yassin killed

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - A Palestinian general strike in the West Bank has been declared from mosque loudspeakers after Israel assassinated Hamas leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin in an air attack.

Shops and schools spontaneously closed down earlier in Gaza where Yassin was killed. Street protests were breaking out in cities throughout the two territories, witnesses said.

Israeli helicopter gunships killed Yassin and at least three other people in a missile strike as they left a mosque before dawn in Gaza, witnesses said. A Reuters reporter who rushed to the scene after hearing three loud explosions found the blown-up remains of Yassin's blood-soaked wheel-chair. One witness who lives near the mosque told Reuters what happened moments after the first explosion. "I looked to see where Sheikh Ahmed Yassin was," he said. "He was lying on the ground and his chair was destroyed. People there darted left and right. Then another two missiles landed."

Yassin's body was evacuated to Gaza City's Shifa hospital. The bodies of three other people, at least two of them Yassin's bodyguards, were also at the morgue. At least 10 people were wounded in the attack, including Yassin's two sons who were moderately hurt. "The sheikh is dead. The sheikh is dead," sobbed gunmen and Hamas militants who gathered at the scene.

Israel has said it would step up operations to track and kill Islamic militants after a string of suicide bombings, including one at a strategic port last week in which 10 people were killed.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians, many in tears, poured into Gaza City streets. Gunmen fired into the air and militants threw dozens of pipe-bombs to express their anger. "Sheikh Ahmed Yassin rest in peace. They will never enjoy rest. We will send death to every house, every city, every street in Israel," militants shouted over loudspeakers Palestinian Authority officials condemned the attack.

"This is a crazy and very dangerous act. It opens the door wide to chaos. Yassin is known for his moderation and he was controlling Hamas and therefore this is a dangerous, cowardly act," said Prime Minister Ahmed Qurie.

Yassin, who was about 67 years old, has been confined to a wheelchair since a childhood accident that paralysed him. He is also partially blind. Yassin was sentenced by Israel in 1989 to a life term for founding Hamas and inciting Palestinians to attack Israelis. But Israel released him in 1997 as a goodwill gesture to Jordan's King Hussein after a failed Israeli attempt to assassinate Hamas leader Khaled Mashal in Jordan.

"All of Palestine will turn into a volcano that will burn up the enemies," Sheikh Ismael Haniyah, a"

Question: When people who don't produce anything declare a strike, what exactly does that mean?

In announcing Yassin's death, Hamas said, "(Israeli Prime Minister Ariel) Sharon has opened the gates of hell and nothing will stop us from cutting off his head."

"CNN Intl is showing video of black smoke over Gaza from Palestinians burning tires."

That will teach the Israelis

[Mr. Silverback]

Israeli Army Order: WIPE OUT HAMAS.

Please let it be true. Please let it succeed. Please let us help! USS Cole is in the Med right now, I'll bet she's got a few Tomahawks she can spare...That would be poetic justice and then some!

"Let His enemies be scattered, let them flee from before Him; as smoke is driven away, so drive them away."

That's part of their plan to get cancer from the smoke and have a cause to complain to the UN 12 years from now.

Live by blowing or having people blown up, die by being blown up.

And have you seen the same? More Palestinains are dead than Isaelis in the last 5 years. By almost four to one? All terrorists? I am not saying the pales are right. But it is more complicated.

Is this "complicated" enough for you? Link to gruesome image of suicide bus bombing. Do you feel any less sympathetic after discovering that Hamas has killed Americans, too?

Upon seeing that picture I think of Spike Lee: "It must be the shoes!"

In announcing Yassin's death, Hamas said, "(Israeli Prime Minister Ariel) Sharon has opened the gates of hell and nothing will stop us from cutting off his head."

Now there's a telling admission. They're admitting their religion is OF Hell!
