Islamic Jihad Member Killed Israeli, Baby
2003-09-28
A follower of Islamic Jihad carried out a weekend shooting attack on a West Bank settlement at the start of Jewish New Year celebrations that killed an Israeli man and a baby girl, the group said Sunday. Islamic Jihad stop short of claiming responsibility, but group members identified the gunman as Mahmoud Hamdan, 22, a well-known Islamic Jihad tough guy activist recently released from an Israeli jail. Hamdan was killed by Israeli troops in the attack.
Cheeze. Sometimes I'm right on the money...

I'm sure this reassures the Israeli public when talk comes up about prisoner "releases" or exchanges.

One asshole released, TWO people dead.

#4  IJ must have felt disrespected that Hamas leaders were the recipient of more targetted assasinations. Hurt their street cred in the refuge camps. Something had to be done pronto.

Arafish is probably sad that it wasn't the Paleo infant he was holding up a week ago.
