Leaders are Child Killers who Encourage Terrorism through "Shahada"
Stand With Us Posting of Footage of Palestinian Indoctrination of Children to Wish Death ^ | July 13, 2004

This taped footage and the following commentary are from Palestinian Media Watch: http//pmw.org.il (Itamar Marcus, Director).

"Ask for death" is the message that the Palestinian Authority [PA] has been conveying to its children since the start of violence in October 2000. In June 2002, two articulate 11-year-old girls were interviewed in the studio of official Palestinian Authority TV. Among other topics, they spoke of their personal yearning to achieve death through Shahada – Death for Allah – and of a similar desire they said exists in "every Palestinian child." It is striking that their desire for death was expressed as a personal goal, not related to the conflict with Israel. Having been convinced that dying for Allah is preferable to life, their goal in living is not to experience a good life, but to achieve the proper death – Shahada.

The following is a selection from their remarks:

Host: "You described Shahada as something beautiful. Do you think it is beautiful?"

Walla: "Shahada is very, very beautiful. Everyone yearns for Shahada. What could be better than going to paradise?"

Host: "What is better, peace and full rights for the Palestinian people, or Shahada?"

Walla: "Shahada. I will achieve my rights after becoming a Shahida."

Yussra: "Of course Shahada is a good thing. We don’t want this world, we want the Afterlife. We benefit not from this life, but from the Afterlife... The children of Palestine have accepted the concept that this is Shahada, and that death by Shahada is very good. Every Palestinian child aged, say 12, says ’Oh Lord, I would like to become a Shahid." [PATV, June 9, 2002]

What has caused this compelling desire for death among these children, a desire that conflicts with the basic survival instinct of every human being?

During the more than two and a half years of armed conflict, the Palestinian Authority [PA] has been making a paramount effort to convince their own children that there is no greater achievement than to die for Allah in battle, known as Shahada. This has been done via the many mediums at its disposal, including children’s TV broadcasting, the educational system, cultural programs, directives from political and religious leaders and even encouragement from within the family.

In November 2000, a mere six weeks after the start of violence, Palestinian Media Watch published a report documenting the first indications that this was a PA goal. The official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, glorified children who were killed in confrontations and described their deaths as personal achievements. It wrote of a 14-year-old: "He responded to the call of Allah and achieved the Shahada he yearned…. He reached the highest levels with Allah…" The paper reported with admiration that the dead boy’s "classmates swore they would continue on the path of Shahada…" [PA official daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, November 9, 2000] Other children were said to have been disappointed at having merely been injured and not killed. An injured 13-year-old: "My goal is not to be injured, rather something loftier: Shahada." [PA official daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, November 8, 2000] Since then, Palestinian Media Watch has published numerous reports on the progress of this PA indoctrination of its children and on the varying methods the PA employs to portray death for Allah to its children, not only as an ideal, but, as something that is expected of them.

The Results of the Indoctrination In recent months the success of the PA indoctrination efforts are apparent. The 11-year olds quoted above defining death for Allah as their goal in life and public opinion polls confirm the widespread acceptance of this sentiment. These polls show 80% of Palestinian children seek death as Shahids.

Still more grave are the cases in which 14 year-olds have fulfilled this PA directive, writing farewell letters to their parents proudly describing their desire to be Shahids, and embarking on suicide terrorist missions hoping to die. It must be emphasized: the children’s farewell letters have included phrases identical to phrases from the propaganda films produced by the PA, such as "Mother, don’t cry for me," showing a direct link between the PA propaganda and the children’s drive for heroic death.

Video and audio footage showing firsthand the evil that has been created by the pipeline of Iraqi, Syrian, Saudi, Iranian, and Egyptian funds that have been funelled by internationalists to terrorist handlers, greedy clerics and political leaders as part of their global anti-West agenda. They have promoted an Islamic society in which child abuse has become a valued norm and have promoted their agenda by using a term that resonates among Muslims: Holy War. Millions of children and their parents are being indoctrinated to love the idea of focusing all their children's talents and aspirations on ending their lives by becoming terrorist homicide bombers. The religious leaders of Islam are backers of this pathology. The U.N. and the world's child protection organizations are silent about the most perverse, sickening, and widespread form of child abuse.

Horrid, satanic beasts, using their own children as weapons platforms for their corrupt and degenerate leaders.

Nits make lice.

Allah is the antithesis of the God worshiped by the Jews and Christians who says, "Come let us reason together."

People become like the god they worship and Allah likes to see Jewish blood running like a river. Sick god, sick religion, sick Muslims, sick societies based on Islam.

We've known this for ages; no one disputes the diagnosis, but the treatment is still an open question.
