They captured him once. They could capture him twice.

Are you also unaware that when they captured him the first time in 1988, Israel was occupying Gaza, with a full military occupation, and Hamas had not yet been permitted to grow into a full scale army, as it has done since the PA takeover of Gaza in 1993? Conditions are completely different now. If Israel had wanted to capture him alive, they would have had to send in thousands of troops and stage a pitched battle. They preferred to kill him, just as the US would prefer to kill Osama bin Laden, if they could, rather than risk a thousand troops in a pitched battle.

Can you possibly be as ignorant of the situation as your remarks daily make clear? Don't you ever feel stupid, making up all these objections that have NOTHING to do with the facts, because you don't know the facts?
