Kevin Rose, you said: "Do you have evidence that targeted attacks on leaders are effective?"

This was the first reference I found on the subject. Here is an excerpt from a Foxnews article - March 23, 2004:

foxnews.com

"Hamas might have trouble carrying out a large-scale attack, in part because Israel has become more effective in stopping bombers.

The number of homicide bombings and the number of victims has dropped, with 142 Israelis killed in 22 bombings in 2003, compared to 214 killed in 53 bombings in 2002. Analysts attributed the drop to Israel's partially built West Bank barrier, beefed-up intelligence and Hamas leaders' fear of assassination."
