Calls for "huge" suicide attacks
2004-02-11
It will be interesting to see how many get to meet their 72 year old virgin.
THE armed wing of the radical Hamas movement on Wednesday called on its activists to carry out large-scale suicide attacks against Israel in retaliation for a major gunbattle which left nine Palestinians dead and 35 injured. "The leadership ... calls on all its fighting cells in Jerusalem, Hebron, Nablus, Bethlehem, Jenin, Tulkarem and Gaza and in all the towns and villages to respond quickly to hit all the enemy positions it can reach with huge martyr operations," the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades said in a statement.

Excellent. The more Hamas members and sympathizers come out to engage in martyr operations, the quicker they can be killed.

On another note, it's amusing how News.com.au still persists in calling Hamas members "activists".

#3  This is probably the 20th or 30th time Hamas has made a similar announcement.
