Hamas: Sharon has opened the gates of hell (United States could be a target)
Haaretz ^ | 22/03/2004 10:47 | Arnon Regular, Haaretz Correspondent, News Agencies and Haaretz Service

Top Hamas official Abdel Aziz Rantisi said "Yassin is a man in a nation, and a nation in a man. And the retaliation of this nation, will be of the size of this man. You will see deeds not words." Rantisi himself was wounded in an Israeli airstrike in June 2003, when a helicopter launched missiles at his car.

The group vowed that Islamic groups around the world will join together to retaliate for the assassination and implied that the United States could be a target.

"The Zionists didn't carry out their operation without getting the consent of the terrorist American Administration, and it must take responsibility for this crime," Hamas said in a statement faxed to The Associated Press. "All the Muslims of the world will be honored to join in on the retaliation for this crime," the statement said.

The threat against the United States would represent a change of tactics for the militant group, which has always said its fight was with Israel and not with the United States.

If the gates of hell are opened and HAMAS comes pouring out...at least they finally admit
where they are coming from and that 'Jihad' is not from God or Heaven...

"If anyone dies in Jihad, it is the will of Allah"

So, if we drop a MOAB in the middle of this funeral march, it would be considered the will of 'allah'?

I like it already.

THE ENEMY IS RADICAL MUSLIMS EVERYWHERE!

Their scriptures command them to kill or conquer all non-moslems. Their scriptures command them to lie to non-moslems if that's what it takes to win.

Moslems must be considered either terrorists or sleeper terrorists. Their scriptures leave no other choices

The moslem terrorists will stick to their current policy and avoid any attacks against the US.

You say this so they can get Kerry elected? That's what I think, too.
