Hamas Suspects Jihadists of Placing Explosives at Terror Group’s Security Compound in Gaza
[Breitbart] Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, security forces have uncovered a number of bombs that were planted at the Ansar complex, the major Hamas "military" and security base in the center of Gazoo city, a local security source told Breitbart Jerusalem.Until Hamas’ takeover of the Gazoo Strip, the Ansar center served as the largest security base of the Paleostinian Authority. In addition to bases for most of the Paleostinian security forces, there is also a prison facility in the compound. The site has been controlled by Hamas since the group took over the Strip. The placement of the explosives at the site, said the source, came as a surprise to the heads of Hamas’ security services as the compound is tightly guarded due to the many security prisoners held inside, which include some suspected of cooperating with Israel and jihadist supporters of the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... The Hamas source said that the engineer unit of the compound’s security guards successfully dismantled the explosives, which were likely meant to destroy the center’s walls ahead of a possible raid to release those imprisoned. The source noted that security camera footage of the site did not help in identifying any suspects who could be seen placing the explosives. The source added that suspicions are currently focused on jihadist organizations associated with the Islamic State, dozens of whose members have been imprisoned in the compound after being accused of firing rockets at Israel or trying to infiltrate Sinai to join IS fighters there. The source also noted that the investigation is focusing on the possibility that the jihadists suspected of planting the explosives had help from Hamas security personnel, including employees of the Ansar center, due to ideological support for the jihadists and IS. Meanwhile, ...back at the shootout, Butch shot Black Bart's knife out of his hand...... Hamas has continued to arrest hundreds of jihadists and holds them in its prison facilities. An extensive wave of arrests against the jihadists began last month after the death of a Hamas security officer in an suicide kaboom  as he tried to stop two jihadists from infiltrating Sinai.The discovery of the explosives at Ansar also comes as Hamas makes efforts to talk to senior holy mans and influencers from among the jihadists, including those imprisoned in the group’s facilities. Breitbart Jerusalem reported that Hamas established a special committee comprised of the heads of its military wing and its senior holy mans in an attempt to negotiate with the influential holy mans among the jihadists in order to reach a solution to the crisis between the two sides.
