Work accident!

Ma'an reports:

The military wing of the Hamas movement said Friday that one of its members had been killed a day earlier in the Gaza Strip after an explosive device mistakenly detonated.

The Al-Qassam Brigades said Majed Zaki Al-Kahlout, 40, from Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip, had died on Thursday.

The accident took place in Jabalia, the brigades said.

Hamas praises him as having been a great career Jihadist, and hoping that the unfortunate circumstances of his death don't prevent him from being accepted to paradise.

Since Hamas is getting all respectable and all, with its leaders being greeted with honor in all Arab countries and its PR hacks writing op-eds in major US and European newspapers, perhaps it is time for Hamas to start taking out workman's compensation policies (not to mention life insurance) for its employees, the career jihadists. I'm sure with all the respect they receive from the world as a legitimate global player they won't have a problem finding an insurance company willing to underwrite them.
