Lots of Experience…

Abu Rajab underwent surgery at nearby Shifa Hospital in Gaza, where doctors stopped his bleeding and stabilized him before transferring him to the Israeli hospital Ichilov in Tel Aviv.

Abu Rajab, his head bandaged and his neck in a brace, was taken in a heavily guarded Palestinian ambulance to the
Israel-Gaza border crossing. Lying on a bloody sheet, he was rolled on a gurney to the waiting Israeli vehicle for immediate treatment.

After his arrival at Ichilov, the hospital said Abu Rajab was in serious condition, under sedation and hooked up to a respirator. Dr. Dror Sofer said Abu Rajab was being operated on for orthopedic injuries.

“I’m optimistic about his chances to live,” Sofer was quoted as saying on Web site affiliated with the Israeli daily newspaper Yediot Ahronot.

Abu Rajab is the head of Palestinian Intelligence.

I suspect that the Israelis’ expertise in dealing with the injuries suffered by people hit by bombs “packed with metal pellets” has been won treating people who were blown up by people sent to blow themselves up with the tacit consent (if not downright assistance) of Abu Rajab.

And they said irony was dead after 9/11/
