IDF targets Hamas training facility in the Gaza Strip; at least 14 terrorists killed, others wounded
NFC ^ | Sept. 7 2004 | Yoah Yitzhak

The IAF struck this night Hamas terrorists, who were concentrating in a building in the Sechiya neighborhood in the Gaza Strip. The attack came close to midnight. IDF helicopters fired a few rockets towards a building, that was being used as a training and instruction facility for the Hamas terror group, under the guise of being a "community center."

Al Jazeera reports, that the building is being used as a "community center" for the Iz Adin A Qassam brigade, the military wing of Hamas. The report says the helicopters fired 5 missiles towards the building, causing the casualties. About 30 people were injured, 14 were killed, mostly Hamas terrorists. Al Jazeera footage shows the killed wearing Iz Adin A Qassam brigade uniforms. Arab emergency crews arriving at the scene moved the injured to hospitals in the city.

The attack on the Hamas men is parallel to the political-security policy of Israel whereas the IDF will increase its counter-terror activities against Hamas, especially due to their terror attack murdering over a dozen Israelis a few days ago. After it was known Hamas members were going to be at the site, helicopters were ordered to take action. This building recruited terrorists, instructed them and trained them on how to murder Israelis.

The Main Stream Media are all reporting the dead as "Palestinians" not saying they were Hamas members, and that the Arabs are victims, bla bla. At least in Iraq they call them insurgents, but when it comes to Israel, they use vague terms making them look like innocent civilians. Many of the times they forget to mention their murderous attack a few days ago in Beer-Sheva. Let's hope the world, including the US (especially as it is doing the same in Iraq), does not condemn Israel for this.

Haaretz already has a Hamas reaction:

Hamas spokesman Mushir al-Masri: This bloody crime is a new wave of aggression committed against our people

If 5 missiles are good, then wouldn't 10 missiles be better?

Main stream media?! INDEED!!! They SUPPORT terrorism! I keep wondering when we are going to send a couple of HARMs into Al-Jazeera's transmitters!

But...shamefully...if Al-Jazeera was off the air, CNN would certainly pick up the "slack".

Vayikra 26:7-8 "You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall before your sword. Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand - your enemies will fall before your sword.

About 30 people were injured, 14 were killed...

Roughly 33% mortality rate. Gotta bring those numbers up...

It's a good start.

If they would repeat it a few hundred times a day over the next couple of years they wouldn't need the wall.

Gotta bring those numbers up. Right on. I would say about 75% should bring them into submission, 85% would have them considering conversion to a less murderous "religion", and if any of those remaining insist on carrying on their demonic, blood-thirsty killing spree, aim for 100%. Problem solved.
