Iraq Comes To Gaza
Evidently the Palestinians have learned a great lesson from the Civil War in Iraq. Road side bombs work.
GAZA, Jan 25 (Reuters) - A roadside bomb killed a member of a Hamas-led security force in the Gaza Strip on Thursday and wounded five others, a Hamas police spokesman said.I wonder how this will help the moves towards a national unity government? I guess some one is trying to veto the plan.
The spokesman said the six were travelling in a jeep when the bomb was detonated. No one claimed responsibility for the attack.

Hamas is fighting back.
Hamas gunmen shot dead a member of the Fatah faction's militant Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade in the northern Gaza Strip early Friday, a Fatah spokesman said.I guess his answer (a hail of lead) was unacceptable.
The spokesman said that the militant was "executed" by members of Hamas' security force, who had come to question the slain militant about the death of one of their members.
The Hamas militants surrounded the house, said the spokesman, sparking a gunbattle which killed the Fatah man.

Where did the roadside bombs originate prior to Iraq? I seem to remember seeing a fair amount of video footage from Chechnyan conflict where roadside bombs were used against the Russians.
