Translation from Hebrew to English by me
Even though the leaders of Hamas, the Sheik Ahmed Yassin and Avad Al-Aziz Al-Rantisi, have moved on to a new world their popularity continues. Take for example Mazen Al-Natzar, a Hamas man (36) from Schem. Al-Natzar decided to call his twins that were born two days ago on the name of the Hamas leaders who were eliminated by Israel.
Al-Natzar, who works as a communications clerk in the Palestinian Communications Company (PalTel), told the French Agency Press that he decided to call his two kids Yassin and Rantisi as a sign of his love to the two Hamas leaders. He added that the names that he chose for his twins prove that Hamas movement attracts those who are in the middle-age.
"In the beginning I wanted to call one of them Az-Al din, as a sign of respect to Az-Al din al Qassam (terror group) and another Al-Din Droza, one of the Hamas leaders, who was eliminated two years ago," he told. "After the elimination of Yassin and Rantisi, I decided to call my twins by their names," he added.
