Hamas to Target Israeli Politicians to Retaliate Nablus Killing: Leader

The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) warned on Tuesday that it would target Israeli politicians to retaliate the killing of eight Palestinians, including a Hamas leader, in the West Bank city of Nablus.

Every politician in the Israeli government and Knesset (parliament) will be targeted by Ezz-Eddin Kassam, the military wing of Hamas, said Abdul-Aziz El-Rantisy, a Hamas leader.

Rantisy described Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres as "criminals."

The Israeli army shelled the office of Hamas in Nablus earlier in the day, killing eight Palestinians, including Jamal Mansour, 41, a Hamas political leader, and two children.

The Palestinian National Authority has held Sharon responsible for the killing, saying that he should be accountable for all the consequences caused by the incident.

Hamas, a radical Palestinian group which takes a hard line against Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories, has masterminded several suicide bombing attacks on Israeli targets.

More than 670 people, most of them Palestinians, have been killed since the bloody clashes erupted last September between the Palestinians and Israel.
