Palestinian Archbishop tells Christians to take part in Suicide attacks against Israel

Allah Hana

On Jan 10, 2003 the ex spokesman of the Orthodox Church of Jerusalem and the Holy Land, Atta Allah Hana, praised the suicide bombings of organized Palestinian terror against Israeli citizens. He also called for the establishment of an Islamic-Christian union that will work together to foil the "American offensive" against Iraq and "to release Palestine from the river to the sea".

The following is a translation of the article as published on the official Hamas website on Jan. 11, 2003:

"He [Attah Allah Hana] indicated [at a convention in Haifa] that when his passport would be returned to him, he would stand at the head of a Christian delegation that will depart for Iraq to act as a human shield facing the American oppression of Iraq.

The spokesman of the Orthodox Church praised suicide activities carried out by Palestinians deep inside the Hebrew State [Israel] in the name of religion (Ist'sh'had).

He emphasized that 'the suicide bombers who carry out their activities in the name of religion are national [Islamic] heroes and we're proud of them. We totally reject the dubious attempts of those who protest these actions. The attackers do not commit in suicide as several claim, nor do they carry out acts of terrorism as others claim, for they are fighters against occupation. Furthermore, we support suicide activities without reservation and without regard to the claims of those who doubt and to those opposed to these heroic activities in the framework of the struggle'.

Archbishop Atta Allah Hana called on Arab and Palestinian Christians to join the struggle against the occupation by employing any means at their disposal, as they too are a part of the Palestinian population".

Note: Israeli police questioned Atta Allah Hana several months ago about his unconcealed backing of the armed Palestinian struggle against Israel. His declarations echo the wide support for suicide bombings on the Palestinian Street. Human rights organizations such as "Amnesty International" and "Human Rights Watch" defined suicide attacks as "crimes against humanity".

The following is the original copy of the article as it appears on the Hamas website:

He is no Christian!

I know the Roman Catholic hierarchy monitors the Palestinian bishops' statements very carefully to prevent crap like this (hopefully the Orthodox are doing the same and this guy'll soon have to find a new place of employment), but is this the same yutz who was nearly sacked a while back after praising suicide bombings? I seem to recall a MEMRI translation to that effect.

Words do not describe . . . .

Gentlemen: This post is from the HAMAS website. Do you really want to take it at face value? I'm surprised that it wasn't posted by RCW2001.

Let's get this guy's passport to him asap, so he can be on his way to martyrdom!

This guy is, please note, the EX-spokesman...plus, he must be a good friend of Sean Penn's, since he also seems to be a devotee of Iraq.

This is very sad

Mar would you bump the OE's

[Jhoffa_]

Christians and Jews are tied at the hip..

These two groups should be very last to go head to head over anything. If anyone can co-exist peacefully, it's Jews and Christians.

Further, if you want to know the truth.. Islam could certainly find greater problems that the Christians and Jews.

If they are so concerned about immorality and corruption, there is plenty more to be found among the pagans. So go bitch at them for once.

[anniegetyourgun]

If true, it is very sad. I hate it when people who are in league with the devil claim to be Christians....

[Cachelot]

This "Bishop" is well known. Nothing non-credible about this. He should have a bullet on par with every other filthy palestinian terror leader.

[Cachelot]

Not this "Christian". He has personally promised (in writing) Arafat that he will cede all church lands to the PA.

Then he's either an idiot, a mole or both.

[Phil V.]

Atta Allah Hana speaks for HIMSELF. He does NOT speak for the Orthodox Church of Jerusalem and the Holy Land. He was REMOVED from any official position within the Church for his views. To imply in ANY manner that he represents the Orthodox Church of Jerusalem and the Holy Land brings into question the motives of those who might deliberately attempt to obscure the truth with insinuations of associated and shared ideology.

Well, it's from the HAMAS website..

[xzins]

A Christian Orthodox archbishop named "Allah???" Somehow this seems propagandistic to me.

[unspun]

I'll go with "in-grafted branch," myself. ;-`

"Atta Allah Hana," eh? Now there's a funky name for a "Christian." Well, perhaps apt for him, (or maybe, Hard Hearted Hana).

As for terrorist leaders leading terrorism, which I guess is what they do... if they get in the way, shucks, just gotta blow 'em away, poor souls.
