With accurately placed missiles by the Israeli IAF, the Military Commander of Hamas, Ahmed Jaabari was slain along with his son,Mohammed al-Homs, on November 14, 2012, when their automobile, identified by “precision intelligence” was targeted as they were riding through Gaza City. One of Gaza’s most notorious terrorists targeting Israeli civilians over the years met his dues.
Slowly we are seeing the hand of the G-d of Israel extracting justice for His own people. While an “act of G-d” will no doubt bring about Divine Justice upon the the commanders in the Gaza Strip who carry “blood in his mouths” and “abominations from between his teeth”. The final outcome will be that the Palestinians and Bedouin Arabs will “too remain for our G-d. As the TaNaKh (Stone Edition Commentary) states:
Stone Edition TaNaKh – “The Philistines (Palestinians) will stop their blood thirsty and idolatrous practices, and join the people of Israel in worshipping G-d. Then, even the Philistines (Palestinians) will be like the leaders of Judah, and Ekron will be as Jewish as the former Jebusite city of Jerusalem.”
As the head of the Military Wing of Hamas (equivalent of the Army Chief of Staff), Ahmed Jaabari, at the age of 52, was the one of the Palestinian government’s leader that was personally responsible for the abduction of IDF Sgt Gilad Shalit and holding him hostage for several years before his release in 2011. This was not the first time the Israeli government had tried to eliminate this hardened terrorist most responsible for the stream of thousands of rockets aimed at Israeli civilian populations over the past seven years. It was in 2004, Jaabari was targeted in an airstrike that killed instead his oldest son, his brother, and several cousins.
For a long time, he has been on the Israeli “Most Wanted” List for his notorious reputation of directed a string of terrorist attacks against Israel. This reputation put him in the international spotlight when under his command, a terror infiltration across Israeli lines led to the capture of the Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit in 2006.
