| Hamas explosives expert behind armor-piercing rocket |
| 2017-02-13 |
| [JEWISHPRESS] The Izz a-Din al-Qassam military wing of the Hamas terrorist organization has announced that the terrorist killed in last week’s “work accident” in Gaza, 37-year-old Mohammad al-Kuka, was actually a high-ranking explosives expert. Golly. I feel so... apathetic. Al-Kuka, it turns out, was responsible for having developed an armor-piercing missile that was used during the 2014 counter terror war between Israel and Hamas, Operation Protective Edge. With how much success? According to Hamas, the missile is an upgraded version of a Russian anti-tank rocket, similar to an RPG with a tandem charge. It has a 500-meter range. |

| #3 In front of the rocket? too dumb for a Darwin, but perhaps worthy of a nomination for an 'ACME' (with a 'genius' cluster maybe?) |

| #2 FAKE NEWS Apparently, he was in front of the rocket. |

| #1 in 2014 Operation Protective Edge, Israel did not lose any tanks (which have a lot of defensive weapons that intercept anti tank missiles) nor any of their heavy duty APCs. One of the older APCs was hit and destroyed. |
