#1 donkey bombs
Damn hard to toss from the back of a motor scooter.

Come on... "I was a hostage" is the Patty Hearst defense. How much don't I believe this guy?

#3 Model airplanes. DEBKA has a report stating that Yassar has bought around 300 radio controlled model airplanes they purchased in Europe for the poor children in hospital. They are fitting them with small explosive charges and are going to fly them over Israeli territory and then crash them. Supposed range of 1 mile, altitude of 300 meters. Going for a mini version of the V-1, I guess.

#5 Donkey bombs, model airplane bombs, what's next? Flying an RC plane for a mile will be a trick. When one gets way out there one does not know whether it is coming or going without strong lenses. I bet the IDF is setting up a spoofing program to turn 'em around and head 'em back to the transmitters.

#7 Someone should lodge a very strongly worded letter of protest, that'll do it. Or maybe we should have meetings and form committees and write letters and sign petitions.
