Senior Hamas Leader Is Killed in Blast in Gaza City

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) -- An explosion destroyed a motorcycle in Gaza City early Sunday, killing a founder of Hamas' military wing, his aide and a bystander.
Hamas charged that Israel was responsible for what it called a "dirty assassination crime."
It said the attack killed Wael Nassar, 38, one of the founders of the Hamas military wing Izzedine al-Qassam. His assistant, Mohammed Sarsour, 31; and an unidentified bystander were also killed, Hamas said.
The two Hamas leaders were on the motorcycle when it exploded, witnesses said.
It was not immediately clear what caused the explosion. Witnesses said they saw a flash in the sky and then the motorcycle exploded, indicating an Israeli missile strike. The residents said they did not see any Israeli helicopters in the sky, though they heard an unmanned Israeli plane.
The Israeli military refused to comment.
Hospital officials said seven people were slightly wounded, including a woman and three children.
The explosion was in the Zeitoun neighborhood, scene of heavy fighting between Israeli forces and Palestinians earlier this month. That fighting broke out after Palestinians blew up an Israeli armored personnel carrier, killing six soldiers.
Outside the hospital, angry Palestinians, most of them Hamas supporters, chanted "God is great." Amplified statements from local mosques mourned Nassar.
One of Nassar's brothers was killed when Israeli forces assassinated Hamas leader Abdel Aziz Rantisi on April 17, and seven other relatives were killed in earlier clashes with Israeli forces, Palestinians said.

His so-called "militia" has collapsed like a house of cards with his mouth still running. How much will it accomplish when he has been terminated with prejudice? Not much, I wager.

"Don't you just hate when that happens?"
Well, NO!
I generally don't like to applaud the killing of humans by humans, but when it comes to the likes of the Taliban, Al Qaeda, Hamas and other scum organizations, I celebrate the event. Will those near the graves of these animals, please jump up and down for me.
It was a rice bike.
Ah, one of the truly greats...
