"It was a suicide bomber," said Jerusalem police chief Micky Levy. "He crossed the street from one side to another. ... He detonated the explosives that were strapped to his body."

The attack followed a day of Israeli bomb and missile strikes aimed at pressuring Yasser Arafat to move against Palestinian militants.

Blood of the Moon

The Great Conflict Between Islam and Christianity Through the Ages

The events of September 11, 2001, have redefined our nation's life. When all is said and done, more will have been written about the now -- infamous attack on America than perhaps on any other event in our history. But will there be a clear message from the Church? At present, there is not. Most Christians know little about Islam, are unaware of the 4,000 -- year history behind the most recent attacks, and are unaware of the biblical issues that must be resolved before we chart a course as a nation in response to Islamic terrorism. This is why Blood of the Moon may be the most important book you read this year. During the Gulf War a decade ago, this was the book looked to by leaders, both in the Middle East and in Washington, D.C. Now, this newly -- revised and updated editon is available to once again offer policy -- makers, strategists, and thinkers the answers to the innumerable questions we face as a people.

Why does the conflict in the Middle East always seem to spill over into the rest of the world?

What is the true nature of Islam?

Is terror an integral part of the conflict?

Is it possible to eradicate the world of such evil?

Who are the major players in this global confrontation, and what do they really want?

How long has this been going on and what started it all?

Blood of the Moon is a straightforward examination of the roots of the protracted war between Islamic fundamentalists and the rest of the world. Stretching back as far as the days of Abraham and as far forward as the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, historian and theologian Dr. George Grant provides readers with insights simply not available through the national news media. This is must -- reading for everyone who is looking for answers to the present crisis, and serves as a great tool to teach the next generation that there is a price associated with true liberty.

Paperback. By George Grant, Introduction by Doug Phillips

Good question. From what I understand, the payments are NOT conditional on results. Somehow I remember reading that this guy who blew himself up as Israeli soldiers approached, barely injuring anybody, still had his family get compensation.

.....do these terrorist failures get reduced compensation from the "Holy Land Foundation" and other Islamic 'charities'?

Well, it is certainly likely that his cronies will get aid from THIS "charity." And, this "charity" will get money from well-meaning donors worldwide who contribute to the Red Cross. Check out the website which is jam-packed with anti-Israel and pro-PLO propaganda.

FREEP Alert.....

MEDIA ALERT

WHAT: PRESS CONFERENCE
WHEN: 12:00 noon on Wednesday, Dec 5
WHERE: Holy Land Foundation Headquarters
525 International Parkway, Suite 509
Richardson, Texas 75081
WHO: Holy Land Foundation Representatives
WHY: To announce the foundation's next step in their response to the government's recent actions against America's largest Muslim charity.

In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FREEZE ON GROUP'S ASSETS QUESTIONED BY U.S. MUSLIMS

(WASHINGTON, D.C. - 12/4/2001) - National American Muslim organizations today asked President Bush to reconsider his decision to freeze the assets of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF), one of the nation's largest Muslim charities.

The charity had been targeted by pro-Israel organizations and individuals for several years because of what they said was the group's support for Palestinian militants. HLF officials have consistently denied those charges and no one has made public any concrete evidence to support today's action. The only specific accusation made against HLF has been that among the thousands of Palestinians who received its relief aid were the children of suicide bombers.

In a joint statement issued today, the American Muslim Alliance (AMA), American Muslim Council (AMC), Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), Muslim American Society (MAS), Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), and Muslim Student Association of USA and Canada, said:

"American Muslims support President Bush's effort to cut off funding for terrorism and we call for a peaceful resolution to the Middle East conflict. These goals will not be achieved by taking food out of the mouths of Palestinian orphans or by succumbing to politically-motivated smear campaigns by those who would perpetuate Israel's brutal occupation.

"No relief group anywhere in the world should be asked to question hungry orphans about their parent's religious beliefs, political affiliations or legal status. Those questions are not asked of recipients of public assistance whose parents are imprisoned or executed in the United States, and they should not be a litmus test for relief in Palestine.

"Charity is a duty for people of all faiths. In fact, it is one of the five 'pillars' of Islam. Islamic charities in this country help American Muslims fulfill their religious obligation to help orphans and the needy. The frozen assets therefore belonged not to HLF, but to the entire Muslim community. This action is particularly disturbing, coming as it does during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, a time when Muslims make many of their annual charitable donations.

"We ask that President Bush reconsider what we believe is an unjust and counterproductive move that can only damage America's credibility with Muslims in this country and around the world and could create the impression that there has been a shift from a war on terrorism to an attack on Islam."

Just wondering, but can't they design a machine, similar to a walk-through metal detector, that people have to walk through to enter certain areas in the city and especially boarding any major transportation areas. If someone has a bomb strapped to them, the machine sends electromatic signals that would immediately detonate the explosives.

Of course this wouldn't stop all of it, but it sure would be nice to see a lot of dead suicide bombers without taking innocent people with them!

I might be wrong, but I think the suicide bombers are using plastique explosives which make it harder to detect.

The latest suicide bomber is in its own way a little bit humorous. The only person killed was the suicide bomber and there were no serious injuries to others. If only they were all like this.

It did however make a mess on the street that proably needed to be hosed down.

Stay well - stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

That picture makes me sick to my stomach. If that was done here, the parents of this child would be in jail. Arafat ranted and raved yesterday on CNN about how Israel is derailing his "peace plan". As far as I can see, there isn't/won't ever be a "peace plan".

I may be wrong about this, but I think the reason the Israelis don't want him dead is this: WHO WILL TAKE OVER? That's the burning question. It's just like Iraq...if we take out SaDamn Insane, will he be replaced with his even screwier son???? UGH.

I have a question though. Since there have been a number of 'failed' suicide bombers do these terrorist failures get reduced compensation from the "Holy Land Foundation" and other Islamic 'charities'? That is, in the suicide bomber industry, Palestines only contribution to world commerce, is the terrorist's family given more cash if their scion blows up a pizzeria and kills a dozen?

So you are onto the Islamic "charities" scam!
More Jews you kill the more adulation you get in PallieLand. This translates into a better deal and more compensation for your family you leave behind.

They crave blood meaning Jewish blood.
