The Wrap, Guardian Unlimited's round-up of today's papers.

>>> WAS GAZA CITY BOMBING AN ACT OF SABOTAGE?

  Ariel Sharon said yesterday that he would not have authorised Sheikh
Salah Shehada's assassination in Gaza City had he known that 14 other
people would die in the bombing raid. "What happened is really
regrettable," the Israeli foreign minister, Shimon Peres, told the
BBC yesterday. "It wasn't done intentionally."

  The Guardian disagrees. "Credible" sources suggest that Hamas was on
the verge of making a "landmark statement ending the suicide
bombings" in return for Israeli withdrawal and an end to
assassinations. "Deliberate sabotage of the peace process may soon be
added to the Sharon charge sheet," the paper says.

  The Times has no such scruples about the Israeli prime minister's
decision to target Hamas: "Hamas is not interested in negotiation or
accommodation with the Jewish state, simply its extermination." It
was "wildly improbable" that Sheikh Salah Shehada would ever have
backed a ceasefire agreement, and a "grave pity" that the "undeniably
irresponsible way in which the raid was conducted" has muddied the
waters.
