1. Interesting development

If the device that was (luckily) disarmed before being detonated remotely can be traced back to Gaza, then Gaza must be made to pay, and pay dearly. On the other hand, if the device is of the work product of Egyptians, then it is time to give them a strong dose of reality. Either way, there must be an accounting. Not a pleasant one, either.
2. lol

'bomb was meant to hurt people' a perfect display of "military intelligence" we have here.. lol
3. To: No. 2

Some bombs are meant to take out military installations or government offices. Just look at the history of the French Resistance during World War II. They didn't target people; they targeted institutions and installations of the Nazi government. Therein the difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter. Blowing up a German train carrying munitions was vastly different from blowing up a bus full of civilians. Don't you know anything?
4. #2 - the statement was referring to the use of shrapnel

in other words, this bomb was specifically designed to rip through human flesh and cause the most damage possible. It's certainly not a military-targeting bomb, and it's not a self-defense weapon. It's a war crime weapon.
