#1 hopefully each of the 377 has a tough leather shoe and a shot at sole-whacking this POS in eternity

#3 So who will the new public affairs director be? If I were Rantissi, I'd have a woman in a burkha with only 1/2 inches of eye slit. This would help get the feminists on Hamas's side (no really - they think like this).

#4 Rantisi would be wise to keep an eye on the front of his shirt, and someone to keep an eye on his back. The sudden appearance of a little red dot means that he is probably about to rejoin his ex-boss.

#5 Can we start the pool for when this guy is called to the boosum of Allah? I give him about a month. IHO we should get in on the 'Whack a (Pal) Mole' game since this idiot has threatened us. Couple of Spec ops teams (with air support) could take this to a whole new level.

#6 Abdel Aziz Rantissi, a hard-liner who rejects all compromise with Israel, was chosen Tuesday as the new Hamas leader

Roadmap to Peace, here we come!

#7 Is he from the political or the military wing and does it still matter?

#8 marek, doesn't matter in the least.
Let's put it this way, would it matter to you if Bin Laden were in the political or military "wing?"
This is more of their evil BS to make it look as if these groups of nasty killers are "civilized."
Islamofascism has both religious and political aims: they want to take over the world for Islam, either subduing or killing non-believers.
Therefore, their "spiritual leaders' like Yassin preach, plan, order and instigate murder of "infidels" through their fatwas and worse.
Is accessory to murder any better than murder itself?

#9 HA! I knew the rat bastard would have to pop up his head. Get a good lock, boys, and fire at will...

#10 At the risk of repeating myself . . .

"Rabbit Season!"
"Duck Season!"
"Rabbit Season!"
"Duck Season!"
"Hamas Season!"
"Fire!"

#11 Right after I posted that last one, my radio started playing a song with this line in it:

". . . and I'm waitin' for my rocket to come."

Wonder if Rantisi's heard that tune?

#12 I wonder if hard line Rantissi can do nuance?

#13 Hopefully this will be chanjed to "Under New MAnagement Daily"

#14 I do hope that Khaled Mashal isn't out of season in Damascus. He still remains the official head of Hamas, despite Rantissi's (brief) claim to the crown today.

#15 Lux - no, I think the "official head of Hamas" was delivered on a (s)platter yesterday. :-)

#16 There was a great quote in my newspaper today that I can't find online from an un-named Israeli general - 'Its not like cutting the head off a snake. Its like cutting the grass. You have to do, but it just grows back.'

#17 Here's an article from the StraitTimes that contains that quote from an unnamed general.

#18 with Yassin in a key role as ~~the brains of~~ the outfit ideologue, spiritual leader and strategist.

I could go there, but I won't :-)

#19 I hear the growth potential in this position ain't all that good...

#20 "I hear the growth potential in this position ain't all that good..."

-------------------

I wouldn't say that. There's plenty of opportunity for a person to rise from their current position in Hamas. It just usually happens to be under the hot swelling gas cloud of a detonation.
