We have another “gates of hell” statement. Oh, and two more dead terrorists.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) – Israeli forces fired a missile at a car in the northern Gaza Strip after nightfall Monday, witnesses said, killing two Palestinian militants – including a man described as a senior commander.
Paramedics and witnesses said the missile destroyed the yellow minibus at it traveled on a farm road and incinerated the two men inside.
The victims were identified as members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, a violent offshoot of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah movement. One victim was Hassan Asfour, described as a senior commander.
Wait. Wait. Where’s my “gates of hell” statement?
Outside the morgue where the charred bodies were taken, an Al Aqsa spokesman who called himself Abu Mohammed threatened revenge against Israel.
“The Zionists have opened the gates of hell, and this gate cannot be closed until we uproot them from our land,” he said.
There you go. Meanwhile, near the real gates of hell, someone is calling out, “Asfour, party of two? Asfour?”
Perhaps a movie is in the works called “Hell’s Gate” (remember the fiasco “Heaven’s Gate” from 1979?
I’m pretty sure “the Gates of Hell” are the doors in the security fence.
Two sent to hell. Ten born … and I don’t mean converted.
HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmmm, victims? Strange use of the word victims…

Good one Meryl. Those Palestinian leaders may want to tone down that ‘Gates of Hell’ rhetoric.
It sure doesn’t seem to give the reaction they are looking for.
Well… they do seem to be making some headway fighting cartoon characters in the press. Bwahahahahahahahahahaaaaa!!!
Good catch, Robert. Yet another example of the AP bias.
May their virgins all look like Yasser Arafat.
