(Pictures coutersy of Washington Post)
Nizar Rayyan, a senior leader of the militant group Hamas, was killed along with several members of his family when Israeli forces bombed his apartment building as the sixth day of air strikes continued in the Gaza Strip. The building was one of about 20 Hamas targets attacked by Israeli naval and air forces today; the death toll now stands at approximately 410 with more than 1,600 wounded. Rayyan served as liaison between Hamas’ political and military wings, and was the first known casualty of a senior Hamas leader during this action. His death was confirmed in a statement issued by Hamas this afternoon.

At a cabinet meeting Wednesday, Israeli leaders rejected a French proposal for a 48-hour cease-fire. Israel will consider a cease-fire only when there is "a real, sustainable calm," said government spokesman Mark Regev.
"A cease-fire will give them time to rest, regroup and rearm," Regev said. "A temporary solution might sound nice, but it's a mirage. It will only blow up in our faces in a couple weeks or a month."
"We think inflicting serious blows on the Hamas military machine is a crucial ingredient in achieving that situation," Regev added. "It is possible we have to pursue military operations for a longer period before conditions are right for a sustainable calm." .. MORE

Iranians Storm British Embassy
Muslim anger over Gaza spilled over in Tehran last night, with the British embassy as its targets. According to The Times of London, “hundreds of Iranian radicals stormed the British compound in Tehran last night, replacing the Union flag wit ha Palestinian one.” As many as 300 people were involved, throwing stones and petrol bombs at the embassy, but the British Foreign Office is reporting that the embassy’s staff was safe. The British embassy has become the focus of Iranians’ anger at the West, since there is no American or Israeli embassy.
