12 injured in blast at Qassam training site
GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Twelve Palestinians, including five children and three women, were injured in an explosion at a training site of Hamas' military wing the Al-Qassam Brigades on Wednesday in Rafah, southern Gaza.

Locals said a "huge explosion" occurred in the Tel As-Sultan neighborhood, causing damage to residents' windows.

Ambulances and civil defense crews deployed at the scene to transfer the injured to the Abu Yousef An-Najjar Hospital in Rafah city, Gaza medical services spokesman Adham Abu Silmiyya said, describing their injuries as slight.

Does Hamas care at all about not injuring Palestinian women and children?

1. "Does Hamas care at all about not injuring Palestinian women and children?"
Nope.

Does anyone actually believe they do? Does the AIB even believe that they do?

5. Team Spirit?
I actually support both sides so I'm more like peace spirit.

People who are only for one side are terribly short-sighted.

7. I'm concerned for all the women and children.

Those who die under IDF bombs and those who die under Hamas violence.

It's not right and needs to stop.

That why all sides need to step-up to the table and create an equal peace.

I'm just not going to pretend Israel carries all of the blame.

10. there have been reconciliation talks between the PA and Hamas
going on along side the the talks between Israel and the PLO, however I fear if there is reconcilation before an agreement with Israel is made it may scuttle those talks sort of Bart Simpson's paradox -
damned if they do damned if they don't

11. "damned if they do damned if they don't"
That's the I/P situation in a nutshell.
