Iran's Khamenei congratulates Islamic Jihad on 'victory in Gaza'
Ah, more "victory" preening...Bethlehem -- Ma'an/Agencies -- Supreme Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declared Palestinian "victory" over Israel in the war in Gaza a "miracle" on Wednesday. Youze took a hit for da family. Sacrifices hadda be made... Let's give da boys some sprockets ... "What really happened in Gaza was truly like a miracle," Khamenei said in a meeting with Palestinian Islamic Jihad chief Ramadan Shallah, who visited Tehran. "The Gaza events were in fact at the hands of God which came true through the faith and firm determination and the jihad of resistance forces and the Gaza people," the leader added, according to the Tehran Times. ...at least it looked like that on Tehran Action News. "Truly, the people of Gaza took a good test and the officials and managers also emerged successful in this test for their good performance and decisive and united position," he added. Yeah. Prone. Under an armor plated bed. In a deep bunker. In the basement of the hospital. More than 1,300 Palestinians were killed in Israel's three-week onslaught on the Gaza Strip in December and January. Israel has also declared victory. Leaders of the ruling Hamas movement saw victory merely in withstanding the offensive. Sounds like even Ma'an's maybe not buying the "victory" bullshit anymore...
