Hamas curriculum

As you may have heard, Israel (using "disproportionate" force of course), blew up a school where over 40 innocent palestinians were sheltering.

From The Age: Israeli strikes kill 48 in school refuges

Of course, the UN, who for some reason has been ever so quiet about the direct targeting of civilians by Hamas with over 200 rockets just this month, has decided to pipe up about this disgraceful act of self-defence: No militants in bombed school, UN director says.

Well, before we all rush to judgment about how the terrible Israeli's are being all disproportionate and everything, just have a look at this 3 minute video, which shows that Hamas had booby trapped a school and zoo and wired them both to blow up. (via Michael Totten)

Now, do you think it is at all possible that the type of people to wire up a zoo and a school to blow up simultaneously, will have stopped themselves using the local high school's footy oval to launch rockets? How about booby trapping the school to ensure that any Israeli counter-strike would definitely generate some media-friendly innocent palestinian deaths?

It's not really that much of stretch....
