MMA to mourn Hamas leader’s murder for 3 days
2004-03-23
The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) has announced a three-day countrywide mourning to condemn the assassination by Israel of Hamas chief Sheikh Ahmad Yasin and Israeli brutality committed on innocent Palestinians. MMA’s acting Ameer and Ameer Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Qazi Hussain Ahmad announced this at a condolence meeting held in Lahore on Monday to pay a tribute to Sheikh Yasin. The JI chief said that the mourning would continue until March 24. Mr Ahmad said that Muslims had lost a great leader and brave soldier in the death of Sheikh Yasin. “Islamic movements cannot be eliminated through power and Israel has committed a blunder by launching an operation against an Islamic movement in Palestine,” he said. Sardar Farooq Ahmad Khan Leghari, a former president of Pakistan and chief of the Millat Party, also condemned the “brutal assassination of the Hamas leader”, saying, “it is the worst example of state terrorism in Palestine by the Israeli government”. He said Israel’s aggression on Palestine had become a threat to peace and this act of terrorism could also affect the on-going war on terror.
It’s a pity Qazi isn’t likely to go the same way

#5  I think the description of this bastard as the "Palestinian Bin Laden" works rather well.

#3  John, don't you realize that Hitler placed a high priority on whacking the incoherent crazies like form his follower ship? If he didn't assign someone to put a luger to your head, he would have added you to a chain-gang on an obscure public works project in a very cold place. If you plan to participate in any future jack-boot shod repression, learn to act like your sane. That was the truly chilling part of the Nazis - that they looked like normal people. Now buy a suit and cease drooling on yourself.

Pity he's right. Yarafat is still breathing.
