| Paleo blows his house up... |
| 2002-10-31 |
| A series of explosions tore through the home of a Palestinian Hamas member in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, killing at least three people and wounding three. The cause of the blasts was not immediately known. "Yasss... We don't know if it was dynamite or C4 or some other substance..." The two-story home belongs to Salah Nassar, a Hamas member whose brother, Wael Nassar, is a senior official in the military wing of the Islamic group, local residents said. Salah Nassar survived the explosions but was burned along with his father. His brother was not in the house at the time. "We heard two big explosions inside the building on the first floor followed by a series of explosions," one witness told Reuters. That was their personal dynamite belts and the stuff they had stored in the closets going off... Thanks, Steve! |

| #1 You know, the IRA had this problem for a long time. There for a while, the IRA had killed more of its own members with bombs than it had killed Brits. Evidently that whole black wire, red wire thing is a little complex for some people. |
