We were off in the San Juan Islands for the weekend, so the news of the Rantisi extermination reached me a little late. I started referring to the late Pediatrician of Death as the "soon-to-be-dead" Pediatrician of Death last August, so I was eight months ahead of the curve. Tomorrow, I expect, we will have another round of puking and mewling from the same editorial writers who complain every time Israel exterminates a mass murderer.

Meanwhile, as Hamas threatens "bloody revenge", none of its members is willing to succeed the splattered Rantisi as the group's leader. Hmmm. And I thought those guys wanted to become martyrs.
