Israeli airstrike kills Hamas leader

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- An Israeli airstrike killed a senior commander of Hamas who was known as a master bombmaker Thursday night as he rode in a vehicle in Gaza City with his bodyguard, Hamas and the Israeli military said. The bodyguard also died in the attack.

"Al-Ghoul's knowledge was used to manufacture explosive devices for deadly terrorist attacks against Israeli targets in which dozens of Israelis were murdered and hundreds were injured," the IDF said in a statement.

  - Not good enough, but getting better. The key is this: The Intifada has pauperized the former middle class Palestinians who made their livings on tourism. - David F Mayer - 10/24/2004 1:49:48 AM
