GAZA - Wounded Hamas leader Abdel-Aziz al-Rantissi vowed from his hospital bed that Israel and its "pig" leader Ariel Sharon would never be safe, after he survived an Israeli attempt to kill him Tuesday. "This pig Sharon will not enjoy security (because) the Palestine is a land of jihad (holy struggle)," Rantissi was shown saying on al-Jazeera television following the helicopter missile attack on his car in Gaza. "The gun will reach every inch of Palestine if they (Israelis) don't stop targeting Palestinian children, women and old people, destroying homes, blockading and detaining people," Rantissi said.
Actually I think they were just targetting you. Doesn't that make you feel "special"?
The term "pig" is deeply insulting to both Jews and Muslims who consider the animal unclean. The extent of Rantissi's injuries was not apparent in the footage. Rantissi said earlier he had jumped out of the car after the first missile strike. He said he was wounded in the leg and chest. Rantissi, 56, is a senior political aide to Hamas founder and leader ~~and blind druid~~ Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and has taken the informal role of spokesman for the Islamic group.

He's a member of Hamas' politburo, probably the real head of the organization, at least in Paleostine.

#2 "He called me a pig! Just for that, I'll call him an airstrike!"
"Sir, don't you mean, 'call in an airstrike?'"
"Whatever. Make it so."
