Hamas rocket chief 'killed' in Israeli strike
2009-01-07
(AKI) - An Israeli warplane on Tuesday struck the home of a militant leader from the Islamist group Hamas' rocket division in the Gaza Strip.Ayman Siam is believed to have been killed in the strike against the Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza. The Israel Defense Forces said Siam was at home at the time of the attack.

As well as being the founder of Hamas' rocket launching programme, he headed the group's artillery throughout the territory, the IDF said.
Another damaging loss to the Gaza Space Program...

#8  I heard "Rocket man" slightly differently

It's just my job, I paid a fee.

#4  She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone


Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man


And I think it's gonna be a long long time...

#2  Hamas was able to launch about 30 rockets into Israel on Tues. This is down from the 60 or so at the start of the operation. However, Hamas still had, I think, at least two operational Grad launch teams at the end of the day.

#1  Is there a greater waste of human potential as that which the PLO and now HAMAS has squander? The crap the the toddler Paleos have been feed in cartoons and other indoctrination programs will be the death nail to these people.
