Hamas Launches Web Site Encouraging Kids to Become 'Martyrs'


The Hamas-run Al-Fateh.net glorifies shahada, martyrdom, and presents the deaths of terrorists attacking Israelis as a time of celebration, according to a report by Palestinian Media Watch.

One of the stories on the site quotes a mother saying that when she heard her son had become a shahid, a martyr, she bought dates, candies and coffee to give out. An entire section of the site is called "Stories of the Shahids" and the most recently posted story honors Hamas terrorist Naseem Ja'abari, who murdered 16 people when he blew himself up on a bus in Be'er Sheva on August 31, 2004.

    Oh, not only that...Hamas wants to launch a satellite TV station, and on one of the programs, much the same spiel is run. A patronly father-figure telling kids gathered around him how to become martyrs for the cause, showing maps of Palestine where the Palestinian homeland includes all of what is now Israel.

    Let's not forget that the PLO under Yasser Arafat was not going to be satisfied with just Jerusalem...they wanted Tel Aviv, Haira, Askelon, Beersheba, and the rest of the state of Israel for themselves.
