The statement, posted on several Arabic-language Web sites, urged armed Islamic groups to target Americans and Jews in retaliation for Yassin's death yesterday.
... "We call on the mujahedeen in Palestine and especially on Hamas and al Jihad: Your real enemy is the tyrant of the century, America," according to the extracts of the statement posted on the Web sites. "American money killed Sheikh Yassin. American arms killed Sheikh Yassin. Public support of American policies killed Sheikh Yassin."
... "Unfortunately, in our place we know that there will be more victims" of Palestinian attacks in Israel after Yassin's killing, said former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak on British Broadcasting Corp. radio. He said Yassin's killing was a "preventive act," and not an assassination.

Prevent what? Any possibility of peace, no matter how slight?
Just for the heck of it, I looked up some links to some groups of Mujahidin:
Al Qa'ida
Al Jihad
Al Badhr
GIA
HAMAS
Harakat al Jihad al Islami
Harakat ul-Mujahidin
Hizb 'Allah (Lebanon)
Hizb' Allah (Palestine)
Hizb 'Allah (Turkey)
Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan
Jamaat ul-Fuqra
Jamaat al-Islamiyya
Jemaah Islamiyah
Moro National Liberation Front
Moroccan Islamic Combatant Group
Mujahidin e-Khalq
Muslim Brotherhood
Taliban
Other "terrorist" groups (non-Islamic included) are listed on this page of the Federation of American Scientists website. An especially interesting one (to me, anyway) is God's Army.
If you know the name of the group you want to research, Wikipedia is a great resource.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
