IAF destroys Hamas weapons lab known as 'Islamic University of Gaza' (with video)

The IAF took out Hamas' largest weapons research and development facility on Friday night - the Islamic University of Gaza.

Let's go to the videotape.

Got to love the background music, eh?

But who is the Islamic University of Gaza? Here are some highlights:

The Islamic University of Gaza is 'twinned' with the London School of Economics. In the picture below, building number 4 is the rocket laboratory.

UNESCO funds a chair (university professorship) at the Islamic University of Gaza. Yes, the same UNESCO to which the Obama administration has been trying to find a way to restore funding....

As of 2007, at least, USAID - an agency of the United States federal government - funded the Islamic University of Gaza. I don't know whether they still do, but I have not seen anything saying they don't.

Before and after photos are below.

Good riddance!

UPDATE 11:53 PM

Here's a CNN report from Friday night.

Let's go to the videotape.

Boo. Hoo. I would bet that those ambulances were full of terrorists.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
