(IsraelNN.com) Tens of thousands of PA Gaza residents are taking part in the funeral for senior Hamas terrorist Ismail Shanab. Shanab was killed in an IDF offensive in Gaza on Thursday.

I'd like to drop tens of thousands of mighty bombs on that crows.

My Mother always said you are judged by the crowd you hang with. Even the most liberal would have to say when you are saddened by the death of a terrorist you must be a terrorist yourself. It sems there are not many Palestinians worthy of being called Human.

The funeral is an informal referendum on how some Palestinians feel about the 'roadmap'. It suggests they are not so much ready for peace as for more war -- but if they want to dance, the IDF will oblige.

[Sam Cree]

They are the worst of humanity, it seems. Even worse than the crowds who adored Hitler in the 30's, because the adoring crowds of Germans may not have foreseen the holocaust that was only a few years away. The Palestinians clearly cheer the deaths of thousands of innocents.

The body of Hamas leader Ismail Abu Shanab is carried from his home in Gaza City for his funeral on August 22, 2003. Israel on Friday threatened more attacks on Palestinian militants after its killing of Shanab led major Islamic groups to proclaim the end of a truce crucial for a U.S.-backed peace plan and vow revenge. Faced with the prospect of another vicious cycle of Middle East violence, the United States publicly urged Israel to work with the Palestinian Authority (news - web sites) to crack down on militants -- a call Israeli leaders showed no signs of heeding.

Ugly, ugly, ugly, inside and out.

They are relatively unsophisticated. If Israel can build a nuke, they can easily build a MOAB.

[Joe Brower]

Destroy them all. Before they destroy us. Those are the rules of engagement as defined by them.

[rageaholic]

The Palis are happy about this. They have once again stopped a peace initiative. Peace is the last thing they want. The arabs require rage and conflict in order to keep their complex Hateocracy going.

[Constitutional Patriot]

MOAB.

Masked members of Ezzedine al-Qassam -- the armed wing of Hamas...

There is only one wing of Hamas...and that wing is the Terror wing. Forget this armed/diplomatic crap. They are one organization with one objective - to kill Jews.

In all seriousness, it is just stupid to miss an opportunity like this...

[knighthawk]

Me too.

Strafing runs w/ napalm would go a long way in eliminating the terrorist threat.
