Shortly after the Israelis liquidated Sheikh Yassin, there was worry in some quarters that the "far more radical" Abdel Aziz Rantisi would take charge and make Hamas somehow more vile and murderous than it has been so far.

I am happy to say that this is no longer a problem.

Update: Reuters, apparently unable to let go, calls Rantisi critically wounded, but CBC reports that hospital officials have already toe-tagged him.
