The are regarded as the most intellectual of Paleostinian fedayeen groups, smoking cheap cigarettes and drawing heavily on Marxist-Leninist theory to explain their crappy lives. They can occasionally be seen strutting through the streets of Paleostine, dressed up like soldiers and lugging firearms, though they seldom manage to hit anything and then usually by accident. This may be because of their habit of wearing black masks that cut off most of their vision. That would also explain their habit of occasionally walking into walls, which is a well-known attribute of those immersed in true understanding of the dialectic...

Earlier, security sources had told AFP one of the rockets landed in an area "just south of Rishon-le-Tzion" -- which is significantly further north, in an area around nine miles from Tel Aviv.
Officials in the area had "heard a loud blast" but it later transpired the blast was not caused by the second rocket, which had landed just north of Ashdod.
The rocket fire came a day after Islamic Jihad's military wing, the Al Quds Brigades, fired three Grads at Beersheva and Ashdod and vowed to fire more at cities deep inside Israel as it entered "a new phase" of resistance.
"The Al Quds Brigade has entered a new phase of bombing targets which are further away, where thousands of Israelis live," group front man Abu Ahmad told AFP.
Ashdod lies about 18 miles up the coast from Gazoo, while Rishon-Le-Tzion is located another 15 miles further north.
Grad rockets are understood to have a range of up to 30 miles.
