Nativity Church Terrorist Homeless In Ireland

One of 13 Palestinian terrorists wanted for the murder of Israeli soldiers is portrayed in a sympathetic article in The Irish Independent as "homeless for five months" and "regularly sleep[ing] in a park." The man, Jihad Jara, is one of 13 terrorists whom Israel allowed to find refuge in European countries in a deal to end the long-running siege at Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity 11 months ago. Another terrorist who came to Ireland with him, Rami Kamel, married an Irish woman, while Jara has not quite 'found his place.' The Independent reports that three other terrorists who were exiled to Italy under the same deal were given new identities, but does not mention the fate of the terrorists sent to the other countries. Irish authorities are trying to find another country to which to deport Jara.

The newspaper article stated that Jara admitted killing Israeli soldiers, but immediately quoted his "justification:" "I would like freedom for my country and a future for my children." The paper explains that the murderer has four children, two of whom he has never seen, and that he spent "39 days in the historic church in Bethlehem, reputed to be the birth place of [Jesus], without food or medical supplies." It neglects to mention, however, that he holed up in the sanctuary, together with close to 200 other terrorists, of his own volition, that they held several nuns (for a short time) and over 50 priests hostage, and that they refused IDF offers of medical assistance and food.

Should we invade since we make no distinction between those who support and those who harbor terrorists?

You are either with us or against us, right?

Poor little 'Jihad Jara'! (Now that's a name that would get my attention on a job application) He's cold and hungry and depressed that he has to live in Ireland! Oh! My!.... The SOB is lucky to be alive ANYWHERE!

[Black Agnes]

Ping. (aren't you from Ireland?)

[nina0113]

Well, now that Mossad knows where to find him, he doesn't have to be homeless anymore.

We have a nice cell in Guantanamo for you if you're interested in a place to stay.

[Slings and Arrows]

I'll be happy to provide him a home - on a 6' x 3' plot.

Once he enters, he'll like it so much he'll never leave.

"Rami Kamel, married an Irish woman, while Jara has not quite 'found his place.'

Now why can't good ole Rami help his Islamic brother Jara out? The Irish want to deport Jara? Wonder why?

"murderer has four children, two of whom he has never seen"

Sounds like Mrs. Jara was having some fun with Jara away. This whole story is laughable when you start dissecting the sentences.

[Napoleon Solo]

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.

"murderer has four children, two of whom he has never seen" "Sounds like Mrs. Jara was having some fun with Jara away." They must be twins. You know how moralistic these people are. Can't think of any other reason...

[lilylangtree]

Twins is an assumption. But you know assuming something can make an ass out of yourself.

Were you being sarcastic or did you not read the article you posted?

"Irish authorities are trying to find another country to which to deport Jara."

 

[JohnGalt]

I see; so we should invade the country he gets deported to.

[Psycho_Bunny]

lol.....What are you talking about?

[JohnGalt]

Cynical commentary from the peanut gallery, thats all.

while Jara has not quite 'found his place.'

I could find a place for him.
Israeli prison comes to mind.

I also understand Gaza city has a really wonderful cemetery.
