| Gunmen fire on Hamas lawmaker's car in Nablus |
| 2008-09-04 |
| No suspects yet, but my money's on the "unknown gunmen"... Nablus -- Ma'an -- Gunmen opened fire on Wednesday evening on a car belonging to Shiekh Hamid Al-Bitawi, a Hamas-affiliated member of the Palestinian Legislative Council, just after he entered a local mosque for prayer. Hope he prayed real good because now he appears to have a reason to... Ahmad Al-Bitawi, Sheikh Bitawi's son told Ma'an that his father parked his Volkwagon in front of the Roujib Mosque, in the east of Nablus. Moments after he went inside the building, armed men fired 15 bullets into the car, then fled the scene. No one was injured. Maybe they don't like Volkswagens... Al-Bitawi asked the Palestinian Security forces to investigate the incident. Investigate this incident! Right away, Shiekh! Mahmoud, run "guys shooting at Hamas big shots cars" through the computer. You serious, sarge? The Hamas-run de facto government in Gaza denounced the attack, calling it an "assassination attempt." Guess they'll have to shootup some Fatah big shot's car in retaliation. |

| #4 Sounds more like insurance fraud than an assassination attempt. |
