willing to hide behind and use women and little girls again , as usual . Is it just me ? Or are these truly the pathetic sub-human cowards and cretins presently walking the earth?
When is humanity going to wise up and wholeheartedly reject this ridiculous & heinous cult they try to foist off as a major ‘religion’ ?

Idiot kept explosives in his home.

Perhaps the Israelis are getting some inside help. Could there be some Gazans who don’t like Hamas?

Hamas issued threats on Thursday to Israeli soldiers, and said the group had trained thousands of women and girls to act as suicide bombers and kill any IDF soldiers who entered Gaza.

Ah, yes. This is the way real men defend their country and their families... < /s>

I'm shocked that anybody in their right mind would consider such a statement to be positive propaganda.

It says much about the truly perverted mind of the Muslim fanatic.

There should be a note in the terrorist handbook: “Do not store explosives in your house. Despite the ease and convenience of just picking up a bomb belt, IED, or boobytrapped toy from your spare room and going to jihad, for safety’s sake explosives should be stored in a separate, neutral location, such as a hospital or an elementary school.”

The IAF hit a house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City on Thursday evening. The strike targeted senior Hamas terrorist Nabil Abu el-Amrin. Powerful secondary blasts were seen from the air after Amrin's house was hit, confirming IDF intelligence according to which the building was used to store large quantities of explosives and ammunition. It was not immediately clear if Amrin was killed in the strike.

Secondaries are always very satisfying.

A guy I was in the AF Reserve with had a great "Secondaries" story: He was flying an F-4 somewhere over the soutern end of the Ho Chi Minh Trail, working with a slow FAC. (Forward Air Controller in a propeller aircraft) It was nighttime, and no one could really see much of anything, in those mostly pre-FLIR days. The FAC dropped a "log", a burning marker, and used that as a reference to tell the Phantom drivers where to drop, with the target being a suspected truck park under some trees, where the FAC thought he saw something.

My buddy rolled in for a dive-toss delivery, but had a hung bomb, which finally fell loose somewhat later than it should have, and of course went flying off into the deep dark. The FAC saw the explosion miles away from the desired impact point and thought it was some other team working the area. My buddy owned up to his hung bomb, and then the secondaries started. Lots and lots of secondaries. The FAC called in the clans and they bombed the hidden ammo dump for a couple of days. :)

On Thursday afternoon the IAF hit and killed Nizar Rayyan, making him the most senior Hamas terrorist to be killed by Israel in several years.

This was a good one.

While the IDF says it regrets the loss of innocent life, tactically the ratio is relatively low, considering the urban warfare setting Hamas operates from within and the fact that the terror group uses civilian infrastructure, as well as civilians as human shields.

Despite this, the IAF does the maximum to minimize collateral damage and in many cases calls homes before bombing them to allow the inhabitants several minutes to evacuate before the bombing.

In some cases though the residents decided to climb to the roof of their homes hoping that the IAF would not bomb if it saw people from the air.

In response, the IAF fired nearby the building, showing its determination. The people are then seen fleeing the building which is then bombed, setting off secondary explosions caused by the large weapons cache stored inside.
