Israeli airstrike kills IJ commander
2006-05-20
Car swarm!
Israel killed a top militant commander and an unidentified Palestinian on Saturday in an airstrike on their car, medics said.

An Israeli army spokeswoman confirmed the missile strike but would not specify who it targeted. A Palestinian family identified the body of the commander as Mohammed al-Dahdouh, an Islamic Jihad commander. Medics had said earlier that the man belonged to Hamas.

Hey Mohammed, Hell was a real surprise, huh?

#2  If there was ever a time in which Mossad should just go on an utter marathon of playing whack-a-mole with Hamas and Fatah leaders, it is now.

NOT elaborate, high-tech stuff. But down and dirty assassinations that LOOK like they were done by the other side. Make a gang war out of it.

Single gunshots, knife wounds, all sorts of gratuitous injuries that look like the assassin was angry at the target. Leaving testicles in the mouth is a good one.

If you don't want to be too nasty, just pull down their pants and stick something humiliating up their bum. They don't care--it's a message to their friends and family.

You don't want just seething. They do that anyway. You want them to seek revenge. And hopefully to escalate the violence by doing something back that is even more humiliating to the other side.

Keep it at the level of street gangs, for in essence, that is what you are dealing with, here.

The Crips and the Bloods. Hamas and Fatah. The Capone gang and the Moran gang. Much of a muchness. Just give them a reason and they will kill each other.
