A Mother’s Pride

Unlike Wesam’s family, now experiencing jihader’s regret in the U.S. and Holland (see below), this Palestinian mom couldn’t be prouder of her murderer son.  The dirtball of her loins killed two bakers and a customer or passerby at an Eilat bakery. The crime was claimed by both Islamic Jihad and Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, which say they wanted to refocus Palestinians on killing Israelis instead of killing each other.

I’m not making any of that up. But you know that.  We’ve all come to expect the criminally absurd. It remains to be seen whether Israel will assist them in refocusing operations by flattening anything they had previously neglected to flatten in Gaza. Based on the family’s remarks, I’d start with their house. There appears to have been some aiding, abetting, and prior knowledge. Here’s mum:

The mother of Muhammad Faisal Saksak, the 21-year-old suicide bomber who carried out Monday’s attack in Eilat, said she was aware of her son’s plan to blow himself up and that she had wished him “good luck.”

Dozens of Palestinians, chanting slogans against Israel and the US, converged on the family’s home to “congratulate” them on the success of the attack.

… Ruwaidah, 43, said she last saw her son on Friday morning, when he walked out of his home in the Slateen neighborhood near Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip.

“As he walked out of the house, he asked me to wish him good luck,” she said. “I wished him good luck and I knew of his decision to become a martyr. Although I was aware of his intention, I did not know exactly when he was planning to carry out a martyrdom attack.”

… The mother of nine said she was proud of her son for carrying out the suicide attack.

“I pray to Allah that Muhammad will be accepted as a shaheed [martyr],” she said. “I hope that his martyrdom will deliver a message to the Fatah and Hamas fighters to stop the fighting and direct their weapons against the one and only enemy - Israel.”

   Awww…ain’t that cute? I think every mother remembers these heart-warming milestones in the lives of their children: first step, first words spoken, first haircut, first day of school and, of course, first slaughter of the Zionist sons of apes and pigs. It’s maternal love like this that has made Palestinian society what it is today, I think you’ll agree.

   Surely mommy misunderstood, she must have thought he said blow job. Boys will be boys, you know.

   I absolutely agree these people should have a state, as in lying in state.

   OK, all PC-bullhockey abandoned with this comment: Palestinian women have been taught to pump them out without bothering to distinguish between them, because they’re just going to be martyr-fodder or walking wombs anyway. It isn’t possible to respect them, or wish them well, or hope that they get a state of their own, because they would just make it into a flyblown garbage heap, like every other Arab country. All my sympathy for a Palestinian homeland evaporated long ago in the relentless miasma of Islamic savagery. The best hope for the West is that they continue to slash each other to ribbons until they can’t anymore, and then maybe we can save the remnants.

   Once I understood this mindset, and saw example after example of the way children are inculcated to hate and murder, I stopped fretting over reports of women and children being casualties. If we truly give a damn about any of them, we’ll hit them until they know the true costs of war and learn to hate it. That includes women who pat their boys on the head as they walk out to kill innocents, and children who are taught to hate and murder from the cradle. Otherwise there will never be an end to the killing.

   It is telling that, when their focus is taken off of Israel for 2 seconds, they still can’t stop killing–even if it is each other.

   When I read the article, it seemed like this guy wasn’t really motivated by a desire to be a shahid, regardless of what the two groups tried to claim or his family. It seems likely he was actually suicidal, being unemployed and his child dying. Then some scum bags took advantage of his depression.

   He might have had Nationalist and martyrdom aspirations, but his base motivation was depression. Obviously, his family was happy he committed suicide for the “cause” because if he’d just out and out killed himself he would have been consigned to hell (per Islamic edict) and his family shamed.

   Not to excuse him or the behavior of his family, but, if you want to denigrate his actions and the blatant lies of those two groups, I’d be pointing out how they took advantage of an obviously depressed and suicidal man. That is the sad state of the “Palestinian Cause”.

   Come on - you know the joint is full of fluffy kittens, stuffed animals and kites. How could you level her home and sleep at night?
