ANATOMY OF A HIT
Posted by Patriot on Thursday, February 18, 2010 (11:17:26) (58 reads)
Mahmoud al-Mabhouh took no notice of the two men who joined him in the lift of his hotel in Dubai during the short ride to the second floor on the afternoon of January 20.
One was short and portly with a moustache, the other tall. Dressed in sports gear and carrying tennis rackets, they looked like any other European tourists visiting the Gulf state for some winter sun.
He did not realise that the two men were part of an 11-strong team that had come to kill him. In just over five hours he would be dead.
Stepping out of the lift, al-Mabhouh was escorted to room 230 by a member of staff at the Al Bustan Rotana hotel, near Dubai airport. Unnoticed, the taller man followed him down the corridor, clocking his room number and that of the room opposite, 237. In the hours that followed, room 237 became the staging post for the audacious murder of the senior Hamas official.
Note: I question the accuracy of this story as the writer sure was able to gather quite a bit of 'intel' in short order. Everyone is going to point at Mossad, which another agency may have used to their benefit, it could be anyone. Maybe al-Mabhouh stiffed someone on an arms deal. But at the end of the day who cares and why would anyone waste their time investigating? I say whoever did it, good job. Oh, and for the record, I am NOT 'burly'. ~Patriot

DUBAI POLICE: HIT WAS DONE BY EUROPEAN CREW
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Monday, February 15, 2010 (18:19:22) (105 reads)
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Dubai's police chief says an 11-member hit squad carrying European passports was responsible for killing a Hamas commander in his hotel room last month.
Lt. Gen. Dhahi Khalfan Tamim suggests a foreign intelligence service was behind the Jan. 20 killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. But he did not mention any specific country. Hamas has accused Israel's Mossad secret service.
Tamim told reporters Monday that the alleged assassination team comprised six British passport holders, three Irish and one each from France and Germany.

HAMAS MILITARY LEADER WHACKED IN DUBAI
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Saturday, January 30, 2010 (16:54:56) (126 reads)
DAMASCUS, Syria – A senior Hamas commander was assassinated last week in a Dubai hotel room by electrocution, the Palestinian militant group said Friday. It accused Israeli agents of killing him and vowed to avenge his death.
Hamas said Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was one of the founders of the group's military wing, which has been responsible for attacks and suicide bombings targeting Israelis since the 1980s.
Dubai's government confirmed al-Mabhouh was found dead in a hotel room on Jan. 20, a day after entering the Gulf city. It said in a statement that initial investigations show the crime was likely committed by a "professional criminal gang" and that the suspects left the country before the body was discovered.
Most of the suspects held European passports, the statement said.
Hamas' top leader, Khaled Mashaal, accused Israel of being behind al-Mabhouh's death and pledged to hit back.

STRIKE ON HAMAS
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Sunday, December 27, 2009 (01:48:34) (133 reads)
BEIRUT – Three bombs planted under a car exploded south of Beirut on Saturday, killing one person and wounding several others in an attack that apparently targeted an official from the Palestinian militant group Hamas, the state-run news agency said.
The official National News Agency said the explosion was caused by "three bombs tied to each other" that were placed under the car of an official believed to be from Hamas.
It did not identify the targeted official or the victims. One of the wounded was in serious condition, the report said.
Lebanese security officials told The Associated Press they could not independently confirm what caused the blasts or who the explosions targeted. The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, which controls the area, sealed off the streets in the southern suburb of Haret Hreik and prevented journalists from getting close to the scene.
One senior police official said the blast occurred in a neighborhood that houses an office belonging to Hamas.

HAMAS OFFERS BOUNTY FOR ISRAELI SOLDIERS
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Thursday, November 19, 2009 (02:22:02) (163 reads)
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – A Gaza charity headed by the interior minister of the militant Hamas group on Wednesday offered $1.4 million to any Arab citizen of Israel who abducts a soldier.
Palestinians have frequently called on Israeli Arabs to abduct Israeli soldiers, but this is the first time that money has been offered.
The Waad group from Gaza offered the bounty for Israeli soldiers in an e-mail sent to Palestinian media. The organization, which supports Palestinian prisoners held by Israel, is headed by Hamas' Interior Minister Fathi Hamad. The minister did not return messages seeking comment.
The charity could presumably raise the cash through its connections with Hamas. The militant group is thought to have millions of dollars at its disposal, both through its tight control of Gaza and support from Iran and other allies.
Waad's director, Usama Kahlout, said the bounty was in response to an Israeli group's offer to pay Gaza residents for information on the whereabouts of Sgt. Gilad Schalit, an Israeli soldier captured more than three years ago by Hamas-allied militants.

HAMAS VS AQ
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Friday, August 14, 2009 (23:37:19) (175 reads)
Gaza Strip – Islamic radicals from an al-Qaida-inspired group battled Hamas security in the Gaza Strip Friday in shootouts that killed at least 13 people.
The fighting began when Hamas forces surrounded a mosque in the southern Gaza town of Rafah where about 100 members of Jund Ansar Allah, or the Soldiers of the Companions of God, were holed up, including some armed with suicide belts and rifles, according to residents of the area.
The confrontation was triggered when the leader of the group defied Gaza's Hamas rulers by declaring in a Friday prayer sermon that the territory was an Islamic emirate.
Jund Ansar Allah and a number of other small, shadowy radical groups seek to enforce an even stricter version of Islamic law in Gaza and have criticized Hamas for not doing so. They are also upset that the Hamas regime has honored a cease-fire with Israel for the past seven months.
Hamas has said it seeks to set an example and does not impose its views on others. It also says its violent struggle is against Israel, not the Western world. The more radical groups' calls for global Jihad undermines Hamas' attempt to appear more moderate to Western eyes.

HRW CAN'T BRING ITSELF TO CONDEMN HAMAS
Posted by neverquit on Thursday, August 06, 2009 (23:17:40) (160 reads)
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – A prominent human rights group said there is "strong evidence" that Gaza's Hamas rulers committed war crimes by allowing militants to fire rockets from the territory that killed civilians in Israel, according to a report released Thursday.
The 31-page report by the New York-based Human Rights Watch focuses on Hamas' actions in connection with Israel's three-week offensive in Gaza that ended in late January. Human Rights Watch, as well as other groups, have previously accused Israel of committing war crimes during the offensive aimed at stopping Palestinian rocket fire.
"Hamas rocket attacks targeting Israeli civilians are unlawful and unjustifiable, and amount to war crimes," said Iain Levine of Human Rights Watch. But the report stopped short of accusing Hamas militants of war crimes, with officials saying only a court could make that determination.
Hamas rejected the group's findings, calling it "biased."

HAMAS ATTACKS IDF ON PASSOVER
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Saturday, April 19, 2008 (16:18:37) (194 reads)
Two IDF soldiers were moderately wounded and 11 others were lightly wounded Saturday morning at the Kerem Shalom crossing in the southern Gaza Strip, when Hamas gunmen initiated a coordinated attack on the Israeli side of the crossing, which included heavy gunfire, mortar shell barrages and two car bombs.
The attack began close to 7 a.m. when two vehicles arrived at the crossing under the cover of heavy fog and one of them detonated near army forces, wounding the 13 soldiers. The second booby-trapped car was spotted by troops after the initial explosion and did not go off, the army said.
Immediately afterwards, an armored car - which may have once belonged to Fatah security forces - arrived at the scene, and its occupants began firing at the soldiers, backed by heavy mortar shell barrages.
Four gunmen, including the driver of the car bomb, were believed to have been killed in the explosion and the exchanges of fire that ensued. Forces then entered Gaza in order to search for remaining members of the cell.

CARTER IS A DISGRACE
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Thursday, April 10, 2008 (15:54:08) (201 reads)
Former president Jimmy Carter plans to meet next week in Damascus with Khaled Meshal, the head of the Palestinian militant group Hamas, in a direct rebuke of the Bush administration's campaign to isolate it.
The disclosure of Carter's plans by the Arabic-language newspaper al-Hayat and subsequent confirmation by sources familiar with his itinerary instantly placed the campaigns of Sens. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) in a political bind.
The campaign of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.), the presumptive Republican nominee, was quick to blast Carter's plans and called on both Obama and Clinton to condemn the meeting with what the State Department lists as a terrorist group.

HAMAS AIDING AQ IN GAZA
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Thursday, February 28, 2008 (02:11:37) (203 reads)
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday said that Al-Qaida militants have infiltrated the Gaza Strip and are receiving assistance from Hamas in establishing a base of operations in the Strip.
"An alliance has formed between these two organizations," Abbas told the London-based Arabic daily Al-Hayat on Wednesday.
Abbas leveled harsh criticism at Hamas in the interview, calling the group "a dark organization that wants to establish its own fiefdom in the Gaza Strip, without any concern for the national aspirations of the Palestinian people, aspirations which are threatened by their actions."
Abbas repeated his call for Hamas to renew ties with Fatah, saying that if the group loosened their grip on the Gaza Strip new elections for the Palestinian presidency and parliament could take place.
Abbas said the current situation in Gaza does not lend itself to Fatah-Hamas talks, and added that he has no contact with Hamas Political Bureau Chief Khaled Mashaal.

HAMAS VS FATAH
Posted by neverquit on Tuesday, May 15, 2007 (18:52:20) (307 reads)
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Hamas gunmen on Tuesday ambushed rival Fatah forces near a key crossing along the Israeli border, killing eight people in the deadliest battle yet in three days of factional fighting.
The incident briefly drew Israeli gunfire, threatening to drag Israel into the conflict at a time when its prime minister said his country was ready to discuss an Arab initiative that offers peace for land.
At least 20 people, including 11 total on Tuesday, have died in the fighting, bringing life in Gaza to a standstill and pushing the fragile Palestinian unity government closer to collapse. Hamas and Fatah formed the union to end months of violence.
Tuesday's fighting began when Hamas gunmen approached a training base used by Fatah forces that guard the crossing, officials said. The base was set up in part by a U.S. security team sent to train Palestinians on how to check cargo and bags at crossings.

HAMAS USING ISRAELI FUNDS FOR MILITANTS
Posted by neverquit on Thursday, March 15, 2007 (15:00:12) (181 reads)
A Hamas source said Tuesday that part of the $100 million in tax revenues transferred by Israel to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas went to pay security services, including members of a Hamas-led force.
"The [Hamas] Executive Force was a part of the security services which received part of their salaries, just like the other forces," the source said.
During his meeting with Abbas on Sunday, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert asked him to account for how the revenues had been spent.
Israel opposed using the money to pay salaries, particularly to members of Hamas, whose charter calls for the destruction of Israel, government officials said.
Top aides to Abbas had no immediate comment.
"This flies in the face on what was agreed upon," said an Israeli government official.

PALESTIDIOTS STILL GOING AT IT
Posted by WhoDaresWins on Wednesday, March 14, 2007 (12:28:35) (217 reads)
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - A Hamas military commander was killed Tuesday in a shootout with Fatah gunmen shortly before the leaders of the two groups met to try to bridge their differences over a power-sharing deal.
At least seven people were wounded in the gun battle in Gaza City.
A spokesman for Hamas' military wing, Abu Obeidah, blamed the killing of Allah Haddad, 35, on the Preventive Security force loyal to President Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah.
The security force confirmed that one of its people was wounded in a shooting incident, but said the matter was a family feud and that the officer was not on duty. The battle erupted after members of a Gaza family tried to recover a stolen car, and its passengers — members of a Hamas militia — opened fire, the force said.

HAMAS SENDING MEN TO IRAN
Posted by neverquit on Wednesday, March 14, 2007 (01:42:01) (200 reads)
Shin Bet Director Yuval Diskin was quoted Tuesday as saying that Hamas has sent hundreds of men to Iran for prolonged training periods.
Diskin was speaking to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
"Hundreds of Hamas members have been sent to Iran for training, and not training periods of a week, two weeks or a month, but for long-term, high-quality training," committee member MK Zvi Hendel (National Union) quoted Diskin as saying.

HAMAS SENDING 10's, PROMISED 100's TO IRAN FOR MILITARY TRAINING
Posted by stonez on Tuesday, March 06, 2007 (14:59:58) (189 reads)
TEL AVIV: The Islamic movement Hamas has sent "tens" of men from Gaza for weapons and military training in Iran, Yuval Diskin, head of Shin Bet, the internal Israeli security service, said Monday.
"We know that Hamas has started to dispatch people to Iran, tens and a promise of hundreds," Diskin told a small group of correspondents here in a rare on-the-record briefing. The training would last months, perhaps years, he said, adding: "I see this as the strategic danger more than any weapons smuggled into Gaza."
Diskin's agency is charged in part with understanding the Palestinian world, and in his view, the main Palestinian secular faction, Fatah, is continuing to fragment under weak leadership from the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, and would lose another election, if held today, to the radical Hamas movement, which refuses to acknowledge Israel's right to exist.
