PA newspaper lauds female suicide bombers

The Palestinian Authority's al Hayat al Jadeeda newspaper on Tuesday heaped praised on Palestinian women who carry out suicide attacks in Israel, describing them as heroes and symbols of the Palestinian national struggle.

The paper said Palestinians were "in need of more blood and sacrifices" to achieve their goals, namely the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.

The female suicide bombers were honored by the Palestinian newspaper on the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attack on a civilian bus near Tel Aviv in which more than 30 people were killed.

One of the hijackers, Dalal Mughrabi, was a young Palestinian woman a refugee camp in Lebanon. She was the first female to participate in a suicide mission on behalf of the PLO.

Mughrabi was killed when the security forces stormed the bus after a two-hour chase along the coastal highway between Haifa and Tel Aviv. The bus finally stopped near Tel Aviv's Country Club.

Describing al Mughrabi as a "symbol of the Palestinian women struggling movement," the newspaper said in an obituary that Mughrabi "wrote down a fighting legend that has been taught over the years."

The report says that when the PLO decided in 1978 to carry out a "qualitative" operation against Israel, it was clear that the nature of the attack was suicidal. "Although the operation was 100% suicidal, there was a competition among the young men over who would participate," said the report, which was written by Nufuz al Bakri, one of the newspaper's correspondents in the Gaza Strip. "They were spearheaded by Dala al Mughrabi, who was then 20. She was chosen as commander of the 10-member squad."

"Now 25 years have passed since the martyrdom of the hero Dalal," the report added, noting that the terrorist attack took place on March 11, 1978.

"Tens of women are marching in her path every day. They include Wafa Idris [from al Amari refugee camp near Ramallah], Darin Abu Aisheh [from Nablus], and Ayat al Akhras [from Dhaisheh refugee camp near Bethlehem], who have carried out martyrdom operations during the blessed intifada in defense of their homeland."

The report concluded by declaring that "Dalal Mughrabi would remain one of the symbols of the Palestinian national struggle, especially at this phase, which demands from us more blood and sacrifices so we can reach our national, legitimate goals of establishing an independent Palestinian state, the right of return for the refugees and the right to self-determination."

Might not be a bad idea - kill off all their women of child-bearing age. Without "Little Palestinian Receptacles" they will eventually die off unless they figure out how make babies by butt-f******.

CAIR would like to remind you that Islam does not condone terrorism.

The Palestinian Islamic mother of the 20 year old who murdered so many on the recent bus bombing spoke out in praise of suicidal murder of Jews and anyone else of acollateral nature: The Um Shadi went on to say "I am proud of my son's deed, we must fight for our faith and not for our nation."

Until this suicidal murdering methodology of the Palestinians changes, there can be no rational reason to produce a 'nation' autonomous for Palestinians. To do so would place the stamp of utility on suicide murdering and this infestation in Islam will spread world-wide through Hamas, Hezbollah, al Qaeda, Islamic Jihad, etcetera. The only way to end this maniacal allahism-fed blood lust is to NEVER reward it. If Islam can exist peacefully with other world religions, then let it be the non-fanatical Moslems that repudiate this insanity, else all of Islam must be repudiated, for the survival of civilization and the freedom to worship.

If the Allah of Islam compels worship at the point of a sword or suicide murderers, then allah is merely a demon and this religion cannot co-exist with other religions.

The Muslim "Allah" is not the God of Abraham.
