Goodness this reads like a bad Hollywood script. The star of this movie is a maimed, one-eyed, shadowy Palestinian mastermind who lives in a tunnel. Okaaaay then. You cant make this stuff up ;) As chief strategist behind a network of tunnels under Israels border, Deif caught his powerful enemy off guard with surprise attacks that caused heavy casualties. Despite punishing Israeli strikes in the month-old conflict, Hamas kept up its rocket fire, even against business capital Tel Aviv. Few people know what Deif, believed to be in his 50s, looks like today, after at least four Israeli attempts to kill him. Past images are scarce. Hamas does not comment on Deifs health and says he has been in full command of its military wing since the 1990s. Some Israeli reports say he is missing an eye, limbs and is confined to a wheelchair. His whereabouts are also a mystery; an Israeli minister said last month that Deif had been in hiding in his own tunnels for years.
