The last paragraph of a news story Thursday about the rise of
Hamas, the militant Islamic group that claimed responsibility for
the bus bombing in Tel Aviv, Israel, ended in midsentence. The
paragraph should have read: ``Yassin, viewed by many Islamic
militants as almost a saint, was jailed for life by the Israeli
authorities in 1991 after he was arrested a year earlier, accused of
ordering the killing of Palestinians. He has been in prison since
then, but his influence as figurehead remains powerful. When Waxman
was kidnapped, one of his abductors' demands was Yassin's
release.''
Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 126 is assigned to the
carrier Eisenhower, which left Norfolk Thursday for deployment
overseas. A list Thursday of the ships and aircraft in the carrier
group incorrectly reported the name of the squadron.
