Israel kills Jihad leader in Gaza

Posted on 03/01/2006 by SnoopyTheGoon

Says BBC.

A senior leader of the Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad has been killed by an Israeli air strike in Gaza City, Palestinian police said.

Then the article contradicts the headline:

Abu al-Walid al-Dahdouh, the commander of the group’s military wing, the al-Quds Brigades, was hit as he drove past the Palestinian finance ministry.

So here is the real cause. A free advice to the spirit of late Abu al-Walid:

In your next incarnation, pay taxes on time, doofus!

    I’ve read that he hit a speed bump and blew up.

    Man, you gotta take those easy when you have a trunk full of cheap bathtub C-4. Or get better shocks.

    Stupid BBC. The PA itself said there was no evidence of a missile, and Israel denied it. A witness said he thinks it was “booby-trapped”. Ugh. I posted about this earlier – I can’t believe how many news orgs put ‘Israeli Missile Strike’ in their headlines.

    Scratch that – yes I can.

    This was a “work accident.” In other words, no virgins for Abu!
