Hamas security HQ in Gaza bombed after threat

A bomb blast targeted Hamas’s security headquarters in Gaza City on Monday, witnesses said, after radical Islamists issued a threatening message calling for the release of prisoners.

The explosion just before dawn damaged the building’s perimeter wall, witnesses told AFP.

The security forces, run by de facto Gaza rulers and Islamist movement Hamas, were not immediately available for comment.

An online statement just hours before the blast, apparently issued by anti-Hamas radical Islamists, threatened to “act against chosen targets” if jihadist prisoners were not freed within 72 hours.

Well, ain't that just a bitch? Do you think Hamas could sue for copyright violation? Send in a lawyer from Disney, that'd sort the whole damn Gaza Strip out.
