Bye-bye, Rantisi

Apparently I have been too fast to berate Israelis for failing to show up in military helicopters for the inauguration of the new Hamas leader Abdel Aziz Rantisi three weeks ago. Surely they couldn't make it, what with all the preparations for the Passover and all the hangovers thereafter. Today, however, they finally managed to get a chopper in the air and some chaps who were able to shoot straight, and helped Dr. Rantisi to achieve his dream of martyrdom.

I wonder how many Hamas leaders Israel will have to kill before Hamas will experience severe lack of leader candidates?

Wonder who'll be next, too. My guess is Mahmoud Zahar. (That's the next Hamas leader, of course, not the next terrorist killed by Israel. Israel has so many terrorist organizations to take care of that all bets are off here.)
