...and our winner is?
The military said the target was Mohammed Namnam, 25, of the Army of Islam group. A military statement asserted that the Army of Islam is tied to al-Qaida and world jihad, but Palestinians said it does not have a direct, operational connection with Osama bin Ladens group.
Namnam go boom boom...
Al Qaeda affiliates do not have direct, operational connections with AQ, they consult, cross-train, and loan personnel. That doesn't make them less connected than if they were in a superior-subordinate relationship. | The military said Namnam was involved in attacks against Israelis, and recently "Namnam was involved with directing a terror attack against American and Israeli targets in the (Egyptian) Sinai Peninsula, in cooperation with Hamas elements in the Gaza Strip." It gave no further details.
Whoops! Hamas is s'posed to have a hudna with Israel, it's just that these little groups are out of their control. It appears that claim is a lie. | The airstrike took place just outside the headquarters of the ruling Hamas police force in Gaza City. Another person was injured, Hamas said.
Mahmoud! Fetch the broom and dust pan! |
