Hamas militants holding severed leg of Israeli soldier

A family of Hamas militants is still holding the severed leg of an Israeli commando killed four months ago in an explosion during a raid on the family's house in the Gaza Strip.

The office of the Hamas spiritual leader, Sheik Ahmed Yassin, says the al-Ghoul family is free to do what it wants with the remains, including opening negotiations with Israel for its return.

According to Jewish religious law, all parts of the body must be properly buried.

2. Does anyone recall...

...when the Baghdad Burning story about the bridges went around, there was a poster defending the quotes by US companies? What happened to that user? Do they wish to comment on this story?

Hmmm...so the US taxpayers are being bled to give MORE money to Bush's campaign contributors...I'm SHOCKED! SHOCKED I tell you!

3. The only way the Bu$h boys

know how to make money is by going bankrupt. This is their profession, this is how they have made all of their money. Since W has taken office, all of his economic policies enrich his friends and family, while they bankrupt the US economy. So only thing that surprises me is their level of greed and malfeasence. I knew W would be bad for the country, I just never imagined how bad he could possibly be and continue to get away with it.
