Ma’an actually names some of the people who were killed today in Gaza. Out of the 27 people named, 22 were known “militants” and two are ambiguous. All were men. If we exclude the two who are unclear, this means that 88% of those named were confirmed terrorists. One in particular is of interest: Muhammad Nader Abu Sha’ban, aged 17.

How can PAS do better when the wang ehsan due to the state was siphoned off elswhere ?
She is brave because she knows there is no ISA to lock her up.
Arraf was one of the ISM participants who slipped past Israeli security forces into Bethlehem’s Church of the Nativity in 2002 to bring supplies to, and act as human shields for, Palestinian terrorists who were holding the clergy and staff as hostages inside. While in the church, the ISM members did nothing to stop the terrorists from desecrating holy shrines and terrorizing the captives.
“In actuality, nonviolence is not enough. Rather, what is needed is nonviolent direct action against the occupation.” “The Palestinian resistance must take on a variety of characteristics— both nonviolent and violent.
