Hezbollah Leader Killed in Explosion

Imad Mughniyeh was killed in a Damascus explosion.

Hezbollah, which translates to GOP in Arabic*, has claimed that the Israelis were responsible, though the Olmert government has denied responsibility.

Considering this guy's rap sheet, the barracks bombing in '83, plane hijackings, etc., I'm not heartbroken.

*This is not really true. It's kind of the reverse almost true. There are any number of people in the Republican party who have either directly, or indirectly claimed that it is the "party of God", which is what Hezbollah means in Arabic.
