#1 ""The Zionists didn’t carry out their operation without getting the consent of the terrorist American administration, and it must take responsibility for this crime." -- Hamas statement to The Associated Press."

I do believe that's a declaration of war against us.

#2 DPA -- they've said the same thing a hundred times, and no administration has ever taken them on their word. Until we flush out the State Department and get rid of the current crop of Democrats, I don't think we'll be able to act on threats like that.

#3 RC - I happily agree with the idea that this wouldn't have happened had the US not tacitly approved of Yassin whacking quite a while back.

#6 Its pretty obvious that Egypt and Jordan both gave tacit approval of this otherwise they would have organized some nice street riots and done some frothing of their own. Mubarak said it was 'regrettable...' which is pretty weak and Yassir has only sent his mouthpieces out to speak which is even weaker.

#10 "This is one of the biggest crimes that the Israeli government has committed." -- Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia.

I'm surprised that the press still keeps track of this clown. Isn't he sort of irrelevant? He's not even wacky enough to play the Kucinich comic relief role.

#11 Mirable dictu, the State Department did not condemn the wack job on the wack job out of hand.

#12 "The Zionists didn’t carry out their operation without getting the consent of the terrorist American administration, and it must take responsibility for this crime."

Yassin is one person. Three Americans diplomats died last October in Gaza. The Palestinians are still ahead, so why complain?

"This is one of the biggest crimes that the Israeli government has committed."

If intentionally killing terrorists is a crime, then intentionally killing civilians is an even bigger crime.

"Words cannot describe the emotion of anger and hate inside our hearts."

Not necessary. Reasonable people know precisely what's inside their hearts.

"Yassin is a man in a nation, and a nation in a man. And the retaliation of this nation will be of the size of this man. ... You will see deeds not words."

Rantisi, you're next.

#13 Napalm the funeral parade. That'd get half of the Hamas boomers, right there.

#14 I'm pretty damned tired of all this seething and whining coming from the Arabs in the Middle East. If they can't understand that other people don't like it when they kill their children, maybe we should show them just how mean, evil, wicked, bad, nasty, cruel and heartless we really can be and totally destroy both the West Bank and Gaza for Israel. Too bad we don't still have a Missouri-class battleship or two that could stand twenty miles offshore and slam them until the barrels melted, or until there wasn't anything left to blow up.

IF the Arab world ever uses any weapon of mass destruction on the United States, we need to make sure there are no inhabitable cities left in that area.

#16 "He (Yasser Arafat) is like a man who was hit on the head because they killed Yassin and now they could kill him. He feels his turn is next and he is sad and worried." -- an aide to Arafat, describing the Palestinian leader’s reaction.

Got your attention, did it?
Good.
