Suicide Bombers' Mother Elected to Palestinian Parliament
ABC News ^ | January 26, 2006

In Gaza, Farahat is known as Um Nidal, or Mother of the Struggle — a mother who sent three of her six sons on Hamas suicide missions against Israeli targets...

She is most famous for her presence in a Hamas video, showing her 17-year-old how to attack Israelis and telling him not to return. Shortly afterward, he killed five students in a Jewish settlement before he was killed himself.

Mother of the Struggle

Is she the Palestinian version of the Blessed Mother Sheehan?

I guess she ran against the Palestinian version of Dianne Feinstein for not supporting the filijihad.

"Is she the Palestinian version of the Blessed Mother Sheehan?"
---You may be speaking truer than you know.
In a thoroughly perverse way, the two women
could have a lot in common. Except , from what I
gather, Cindy Sheehan didn't have a real relationship with her son for many years, and for the most part didn't raise him. I could have my facts wrong, but the behavior of Sheehan should be seen in this light if one is to get
any real perspective on her, and the way she symbiotically
uses/agrees to be used by the far Left in their bashing of the Iraq war effort.
I don't like to be presumptuous,or insensitive, but it seems
she suddenly became VERY interested in her son once
he became "A Martyr for the Bush Administration".
At that point she finally CLAIMED her son.

I have a totally Americanized friend who is/was a Christian Palestinian. His family was ferociously persecuted by the IslamoNazis until they were forced to flee to the US. Christian Arabs (once 10% of the West Bank) are now extinct. He has nothing but hatred for Hamas.

The few remaining Arab Christians in the area now live in Israel and are (ironically) protected by the security wall. Incidentally Christian arabs in Haifa are a big homicide bomber target.

The enemy continually prepares for the coming battle.

I hope we are doing the same, but I fear we are not.

I've heard Dennis Prager mention how hating Jews is more important to these people than loving their own children.
