Explosion rocks Gaza in apparent assassination attempt
[IsraelTimes] Vehicle of senior Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, official blown up by Paleostinian assailants in sign of increasing instability in the StripThe vehicle of a senior Hamas official went kaboom!Friday in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gazoo Strip, injuring a civilian. The official, Sami al-Hams, was not maimed in the incident, the Paleostinian al-Quds news station reported. Initial reports suggested that Paleostinian assailants deliberately targeted al-Hams and that they placed explosive charges beneath his car. In late January, person or persons unknown blew up the car of a Hamas security official in Gazoo, in a sign of increasing instability in the Paleostinian enclave. Witnesses said the car belonged to Helmi Khalaf, administrative and financial manager of the Hamas-run military police. It was unclear who carried out that alleged attack. A series of kabooms in November targeted officials from Fatah, Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... 's own political party, but caused no injuries. Observers have warned of the dangers of Hamas losing control inside Gazoo to more radical Islamists including Salafists ...Salafists are ostentatiously devout Moslems who figure the ostentation of their piety gives them the right to tell others how to do it and to kill those who don't listen to them... with whom it has clashed in the past.
