#1 Shouldn't the title be "dying as mortars".

#2 Does one refer to a female member of Hamas as a Hamiss or Hamette?

#4 "Hamas leaders are ready to die as martyrs and any talk about peaceful good solutions is useless."

Give them what they seek. Declare open season on Hamas leaders, and release the hounds.

#5 Disgustingly, the Sydney Morning Herald put the headline on that homicide-bomber story as:

"Mother's only wish was to die a martyr"

Oh my heart bleeds. I complained to the paper not that it will do any good: the facts are not in dispute, she murdered 5 and maimed 7. She is not a martyr. If you choose to use the word martyr, put it in scare quotes to make it clear it is just her opinion and not widely accepted fact.

a martyr suffers for their cause without causing suffering to others. This bitch is another suicide murderer and nothing more noble than that.
