Three Hamas terrorists were killed by an explosion in the West Bank village of Dir Abu Daif today, near Jenin. Palestinian sources say that the blast apparently took place because of a 'work accident' which took place while preparing an explosives belt.
According to AP reports, three Hamas members were brought to hospital, with the body of one in two parts. Palestinian security sources say he was likely a Hamas member who accidentally set off an explosives belt he was wearing.

It's okay--they went to meet Allah up-close and personal...and they did it without hurting anyone but themselves; other terrorists should take a page out of these guys' playbook. To think, killing yourself without murdering innocent people? How genius! Finally, something positive from militant Islam.
