Motherly priorities. From Palestinian Media Watch: Mother celebrates son's Martyrdom death: "All mothers should sacrifice their child for Palestine"

Palestinian Authority TV news recently chose to feature a Palestinian mother promoting her son's death as a positive goal.

Upon learning of her son's death in an Israeli air strike, the mother explained that she had always hoped for her son's Shahada - death as a Martyr -- and recommended that other mothers likewise "sacrifice their child for Palestine."

The words of another woman, chosen by PA TV news for the pre-recorded news report, described how Palestinian society sees Martyrs as grooms. This is based on the Islamic tradition, promoted actively by the PA and Hamas, that Martyrs will marry 72 virgins in Paradise.

PA TV news report:

Mother upon news of son's death in an Israeli air strike: "We had always hoped for his [my son's] Martyrdom (Shahada), knowing he wanted to die as a Martyr (Shahid). Every time he went out, we would say to him, 'May Allah be with you.' We knew that he wanted to die as a Martyr. Praise to Allah, he sought Martyrdom, and he achieved it. My message to every mother is to sacrifice her child for Palestine." Second woman: "By Allah, we welcome every Martyr as if he were a groom among us." [PA TV (Fatah), Feb. 11, 2010]

Palestinian Media Watch has documented that these two ideas -- that death is a higher value than life and that Martyrdom death leads to a wedding between the Martyr and the virgins of Paradise -- have been promoted actively by both the Palestinian Authority and Hamas for years...[More]

It's a bit like my mother: "We had always hoped he'd be a doctor. OK, maybe a lawyer, or even a dentist. Nu, the allure of 72 shiksas was too great. My advice to all mothers, keep your children away from a liberal arts education, by gott."

Nu, explains everything!

But, better they should go to dental school maybe?

Thanks for a good link, Sophia.

Maybe you were just leaving a note for yourself. Is Sophie your evil twin?

This demonstrates that "palestinianism" is a Death Cult - like their polytheist Egyptian forsbearers.

Heh. I have an evil twin (signed Teh Real Sophia).

Well ok then. I propose a detonation testing facility out in the desert somewhere where the shahids can test out the latest bombs on themselves first. Quality is Job 1.
