Israel's War Against Hamas - Updates

[Sixties Fan]

Last week, Muhannad Al-Iswed, a 34-year-old Palestinian terrorist who was a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades (Fatah’s military wing), and a former member of the PA Presidential Guard, murdered 3 Israeli police officers, before being killed by Israeli soldiers. For PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah Movement, the death of the murderer was the “death as a Martyr.” In several announcements, Fatah’s military wing praised Al-Iswed as a “heroic fighting Martyr” who “wrote tales of heroism and honor in the fields of battle and confrontation.”

In the shooting northwest of Hebron, Iswed murdered police officers Hadas Brentz (53), Arik Ben Eliyahu (37), and Roni Shakuri (61) who were driving in their car.

Fatah’s announcements called his funeral “a wedding” in accordance with Islamic belief that a person “who dies for Allah” is considered a “Shahid” - a “Martyr” - and is rewarded with 72 Virgins in Paradise. According to Fatah, murdering the 3 Israelis was and Islamic act to be rewarded by Allah.

The following are the texts on Fatah’s posters announcing the “Martyr’s wedding”:
