ABOUT 100 "targeted killings" of terrorists have been carried out by Israeli security and military forces since the Palestinian uprising began - and in no more than six of those cases were civilians killed by mistake.

Israeli officials rushed to reveal that statistic last week in the wake of criticism of the bombing attack that killed Hamas commander Salah Shehada and 15 civilians.

Arafat needs to be on the end of this kind of operation.

It will be hard to kill him. If they would shoot him in the head you would still miss his brain by about 5 feet!

Well, actually, there was a midget suicide bomber stowed away in that 1000 lb. ka-boom, at the last momment. He's whut did it. There now, it's all OK now isn't it? Doesn't everyone feel just a whole lot better? I thought that might do it. Anytime I can be of help now.

Are you part of an operation, Phil, or a just a free lance?

I posted the below comment as a reply to a eariler story!

Since the Muslim Civilians support these monsters, they themselves should not be exempt from military attacks.

"It would appear that a military attack on one of these "FUNERALS" would take care of some senior Hamas, and reduce the gene pool of wannabe Homicide Bombers."

What's the problem?! Why are the Pali's so upset? I thought becoming a "glorious martyr" was the highest level attainable for an Islamic nutcase.... Or that is just the BS fed into young Pali suckers. It never seems like the older Islamic leaders volunteer for ""glorious martyrdom". Maybe they know it’s just a big lie…

The terrorist leaders are cowards. They talk of bravery and martyrdom and etc but have you noticed they're never the ones to put their lives on the line for THEIR ideals? No, their idea of being a warrior is to hide behind the skirts of women and and the patter of little ones. Some warriors. And for all their talk of meeting the enemy head on, as befits their true chicken little reputation, the terrorist leaders are very much afraid of death.

Geez, who would've thought that a 1,000 pound bomb, dropped on an apartment building at night, would cause civilian casualties? I'm shocked, shocked that civilians were in there.

If I was in battle, I would not hide in my home and risk the lives of my family. He chose to risk the lives of the civilians around him and his family. He killed them, Israel simply dropped the bomb on the terrorist.

I am part of an operation, but due to my superior trouble shooting abilities I am given great latitude in my choices and methods of trouble shooting my company's distribution system. To an extent I free lance.

I am a water distribution operator working for a major irrigation/utility in California.

I am a forth generation Californian, phormer pharmer, and US Army veteran ('65-'68 RA19849875)

Are you hiring?

Indeed, if you read their websites one thinks Israel done them a favor by martyring them. Think of all the slaves, eternal virgins and 'boys looking like pearls' they will have. The males that is. According to mohammed 'the majority of woman go to hell', so I don't know what the martyr-deal package has got in store for them.

[AmericaUnited]

True! You'd think Saddam would giving $25,000 to IDF/Shin Bet soldier involved for helping make "Operation Glorious Martyr" a smashing success. LOL!

[knighthawk]

And by giving away all the Iraqi money Saddam also helps martyring his own people too!
