Hamas Jihadist Killed At Israeli Border - Appears To Be A Suicide Belt Oops


The report is a bit sketchy whether a Hamas suicide bomber's belt went off prematurely killing him and injuring another or if they were in a vehicle that exploded prematurely but no matter...the important thing is the explosives went off just prior to them getting to the Israeli crossing. Now I ask you, if your attempt at martyrdom is foiled by the ineptness of the dude that packed your belt, do you still get the virgins?

Here's a bit from the article here at Yahoo:


A member of the militant group Hamas has been killed in an explosion along Gaza's fence with Israel, the group said Sunday.
The Islamic group's military wing says the member was killed and another injured during a "holy mission." Such language is used when explosives meant for an attack on Israel explode prematurely.

I imagine that Jimmy Carter wasn't available to provide further comment on the exact nature of the foiled plot to kill innocent Israelis.


Hamas militant killed in Gaza explosion

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - A member of the militant group Hamas has been killed in an explosion along Gaza's fence with Israel, the group said Sunday.

The Islamic group's military wing says the member was killed and another injured during a "holy mission." Such language is used when explosives meant for an attack on Israel explode prematurely.
Israel's army said it was not operating in the area at the time of the explosion early Sunday.
Fighting has escalated since an Israeli man was killed in a mortar shell attack on southern Israel on Friday. In retaliation, Israeli forces fired missiles that killed five Hamas militants.
Gazan militants fire rockets and mortars daily. Israel frequently launches airstrikes and ground operations in Gaza against the rocket squads.
