Personally being of high morals, I think they should have strapped missiles to this wheelchair mythbuster style and sent Yassin for a land speed record. Al -- I don't take sides.

I daresay they'd have confiscated his wheelchair and made him crawl to wherever he then called home if they'd been able to catch him. Since they obviously couldn't sterner measures would've been called for. Pretty good shooting when they can nail him and his mates from a helicopter without collateral damage. >Now if they just crushed his wheelchair.. or sold it.. it would be worse for >Israel? I've no problem with crushing it but, aside from the immorality, selling it on would simply make it available to other terrorists. >Personally being of high morals, I think they should have strapped missiles to >this wheelchair mythbuster style and sent Yassin for a land speed record. And risk the lives of innocent bystanders!!! I suspect in this instance they would've aimed their missile just below the wheelchair and gone for an altitude record. -- John H

I guess a lot of insurance issues with a high speed wheelchair like kicking up dust leading to multi million dollar silicosis claims. Al -- I don't take sides.

Scrap metal car is Shirley worth more than a dollar. Pretty sure they would pull out the motor and other stuff before crushing the body. Al -- I don't take sides.
