Hamas raids Islamic Jihad mosque in Gaza, arrests prominent cleric
Green on green.
[IsraelTimes] Officers break Sheikh Yahya Mansour’s hand, injure worshipers who tried to defend him; operation reportedly part of strategy to assert control over mosques in Strip

Police in the Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-controlled Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip swarmed a mosque and arrested a prominent religious figure affiliated with the Paleostinian Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
terror group this week.

Sheikh Yahya Mansour’s hand was broken by police during the arrest on Tuesday, while PIJ members and other civilians were maimed in the raid on Rafah’s Al Awda mosque, a PIJ stronghold, the Tazpit Press Service reported, citing eyewitnesses.

Unnamed Gaza sources told TPS that the raid was part of a broader strategy by Hamas to take control of mosques in the enclave and subjugate PIJ.

Mansour later claimed in a video that the Hamas members "wanted to kill me."

"They beat me with chairs and objects that were in the mosque and I miraculously survived," he said.

It was unclear exactly why Mansour was detained.

On Thursday, Hamas activists came to the mosque and hung the group’s flags outside the building, Channel 12 reported.

"What crime did these Zionist dogs get up to?" PIJ said in a statement. "Stealing, drug trafficking, hoarding electricity, and all the crises in Gaza are not enough for them. They also want to kill the military arm of the Islamic Jihad that was on the battlefield for three rounds with the occupation," they added.
Zionist Dogs? That's gotta hurt
PIJ and Hamas both fought Israel in an 11-day conflict in May 2021. Since then, PIJ fought alone in two rounds of fighting, in August 2022 and May 2023.

Hamas, the terror group that has ruled Gaza since 2007, cooperates with PIJ and other Paleostinian terror factions on military matters under the so-called "Joint Operations Room."

However,
a woman is only as old as she admits...
PIJ is also Hamas’s main rival in the Strip. The enclave’s rulers occasionally intervene when PIJ operatives attempt to fire rockets at Israel, to avoid violent mostly peaceful escalations when conflict is not in their interest.

#1 Maybe they will eventually kill each other off.

#2 Hope they didn't accidentally destroy any Korans in their raid on the mosque. Moslems frown on that intently.

#4 Nasreddin sets fire to the B--k;
Like an idol he squats in the nook;
And meeting the P-----t
A-horse, knocks him off it.
"When A---- complains,
Take my ill-gotten gains,
If you find them -- please look! --
And use all that I took
To restore His perfection, ya shnook."

#6 The Mollah, a liar, one day,
In the standard Mohammedan way,
Said he'd heard from A----.
Cried the village, "Huzzah!"

"Whuddy say?"
"'Dude, get outta my way!'"
