Al-Reuters Gloats Over Suicide Bombings
The Palestinian bureau chief for al-Reuters, Nidal al-Mughrabi, openly gloats over yesterday’s Hamas mass murder attacks in Israel: Hamas Militants Rebound Despite Israeli Blows.

GAZA (Reuters) - With two human bombs from the West Bank, the Palestinian militant group Hamas has shown that Israel’s campaign to kill off its leadership has not broken its will or wherewithal to shed Israeli blood.

There was no question that Israel’s rapid-fire assassination of Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and firebrand successor Abdel Aziz al-Rantissi in air strikes in March and April stunned and impaired the group, forcing other leaders underground.

But the simultaneous suicide attacks on two buses that killed 16 people in the Israeli city of Beersheba on Tuesday dashed speculation that Hamas had lost the ability to strike in Israel, although their resolve was generally not in doubt.

The Beersheba bombings shattered a nearly six-month lull in suicide attacks that had Israelis daring to think it was pretty safe to go about their lives once again as normal.
