Of course my favorite HAMAS period was 2002 and 2003:†
- he 9 March 2002 suicide bombing of a Jerusalem cafe, in which 11 people were murdered and 54 were wounded;
- The 27 March 2002 suicide bombing of a Netanya hotel on the first night of Passover, in which 30 people were murdered and 140 were wounded;
- The 18 June 2002 suicide bombing of a #32A bus in Jerusalem, in which 19 people were murdered and 74 were wounded;
- The 4 August 2002 suicide bombing of #361 bus at Meron junction, in which nine people were murdered and 50 were wounded;
- The 21 November 2002 suicide bombing of a #20 bus in Jerusalem, in which 11 people were murdered and 50 were wounded;
- The 5 March 2003 suicide bombing of a #37 bus in Haifa, in which 17 people were murdered and 53 were wounded;
- The 17 May 2003 suicide bombing in Hebron, in which two people were murdered;
- The 18 May 2003 suicide bombing of a #6 bus in Jerusalem, in which seven people were murdered and 20 wounded;
- The 11 June 2003 suicide bombing of #14A bus in Jerusalem, in which 11 people were murdered and over 100 were wounded;
† ALL the HAMAS attacks listed above were deliberate attacks specifically directed killing as many civilians possible; not a case of inadvertent or collateral damage Article 50 of Additional Protocol I. These actions are fundamentally outside the norms of customary international law.
- The 19 August 2003 suicide bombing of a #2 bus in Jerusalem, in which 23 people were murdered and over 130 were wounded;
How many of these bus passangers were IDF reservists travelling to or from their duty stations or other IDF/security/police personnel?
What many people don't realise is that Israeli buses are an integral part of the Zionist military logistics infrastructure and play a vital role in IDF mobilisation planning. In time of war all the buses become military transports, valid targets.
