Magical Self-Destructing Houses, Part II

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Monday, October 29. 2007 11:38
It's happened again—Some dumb Palestinian terrorist brought his work home, and while he was out and about hanging with his other terrorist pals, one of his children made the fatal mistake of playing with his equipment. You'll be amused to see who the Associated Press immediately assumes is responsible, though:

A powerful explosion went off in a house in southern Gaza on Saturday, killing two women and a 4-year-old girl, Palestinian medics and witnesses said. The cause of the blast in the town of Khan Younis was not immediately clear. The Israeli military said it was not carrying out any operations in the area at the time.(AP Photo/Khalil Hamra)


Glad we got that squared away. Oh, and for the record, the cause of the blast is pretty clear, even from way over here on the shores of the Potomac. I'll be rounding up the rest of the pictures from this entirely avoidable catastrophe following the fold, if you're intersted.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*"...killing two women and a 4-year-old girl..."

Hmmm, I wonder whether this might in fact have been an honor [sic] killing cleverly disguised as a "work accident".

*Anything's possible, MAOZ. Palestinian "culture" has embraced death to such a horrific level, I wouldn't put anything past them.

Regards,
Brian
