The man who said, "We have only one enemy. They are Jews. We have no other enemy," is dead: IAF kills PRC head Sahamdana, 3 others in Rafah
IDF sources confirmed the attack, claiming that Sahamdana and the other terrorists were in the midst of training a terror attack they planned to perpetrate against Israel when the missiles struck. Earlier in the day, Peretz ordered the IDF to step up the targeted killings of Palestinians involved in Kassam attacks against Israel.
"No terrorist from any of the organizations will be immune if they engage in anti-Israel terror activity," Peretz said during a meeting with security officials in Tel Aviv.
Abu Samhadana was a key player in rocket attacks on Israel and a suspect in the fatal 2003 bombing of a US convoy in the Gaza Strip. His recent appointment as director general of the Hamas-led Interior Ministry infuriated both Israel and Hamas' Fatah rivals, led by Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.
A spokesman for the Popular Resistance Committees vowed revenge.
"The Zionists and Israelis have opened the gates of hell by assassinating Abu Samhadana," spokesman Abu Abir said...
I fear that Mr. Abir may be the subject of a future headline. More on Samhadana here and here.

Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
