“The secret of all victory lies in the organization of the non-obvious.” -Marcus Aurelius
Since Operation Cast Lead, the Hamas terror organization has been working intensively in an effort to rearm itself and pose further threat to Israel’s civilian population.
Thousand of rockets and mortars have been smuggled to Gaza, reviving the terror infrastructure that was nearly dismantled by Israel in 2008.
Following last week’s offer by the bearded monkey Al-Qarni to pay anyone who abducted any IDF soldier $100,000, a Saudi prince has upped the offer to one million dollars. Prince bin Talah confirmed this last night on Saudi State TV.
Unless Saudi authorities take some sort of action over this, surely this is an act of war, where is the international condemnation?

Since Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip in 2005, terrorists have fired more than 7,000 rockets and mortars into Israel, putting millions of Israelis under threat on a daily basis. Hamas is the ruling entity of the Gaza Strip; the terrorist organization is designated as a terrorist entity by the US, UK, EU and Israel. In the last year, more than 566 rockets and mortar shells were fired at major population centers in southern Israel:

GAZA | Sat Oct 29, 2011 8:32am EDT
(Reuters) – Israeli forces attacked an Islamic Jihad camp in the southern Gaza Strip on Saturday, killing a commander of the Palestinian faction and four other militants, officials on both sides said.
The strike in Rafah, a town on Gaza’s border with Egypt, followed a Palestinian rocket salvo on Thursday which landed deep in Israel but caused no casualties.
Islamic Jihad said an explosion in the training camp killed Ahmed al-Sheikh Khalil, a munitions expert and one of its top commanders, as well as four comrades. An Islamic Jihad source said the dead may include senior figures other than Khalil.
“Those targeted were a group of leaders,” the source said.

UPDATE: Challah Hu Akbar has more: Report: Muslim Brotherhood Welcomes Idea of Opening Hamas Offices in Cairo (Aug,25, 2011)
Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Zahar says Hamas may relocate its Damascus headquarters to Cairo due to the widespread unrest in Syria.
Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Zahar announced Friday the terror movement is may relocate its headquarters from Damascus to Cairo. It is the first time a senior Hamas official openly admitted they were looking at a move.
“All the Palestinians in Syria are in distress, not just Hamas. There are many options in terms of the organization’s headquarters and Egypt is one of them,” he said.
Al-Zahar also addressed the possibility that other senior Hamas officials will return to Gaza and noted this depended on each of them personally.
“Gaza is open to all,” he stressed. “There are leaders who may return to Gaza and some may not. “

Thanks to Tundra Tabloids for sending me this link, here is an edited version of the interview with the Son of Hamas founder, Mosab Hassan Yousef. I have removed the Finnish translations from the interview for brevity, but this host is well known for honest translations so there is nothing missing in terms of honest content.
I don’t get it. Do Muslims actually believe a word they actually say? Cause if the believe a single word about Islamic martyrdom, how the only guaranteed way to get to the brothel in the sky where every man has Priapism, where you can finally get a damn drink, where you can have sex with young boys and it somehow isn’t gay, is by dying in the course of jihad, then the Muslim world should be sending flowers to Obama and the CIA. I mean we put their hero exactly where he and every other Muslim believer is willing to kill and die to get to. So whats the woop?
So I have two words for Hamas:
You’re Welcome!
It’s important to note here that Obama insists that OBL is not a Muslim leader.
GAZA (Reuters) – The Palestinian Islamist group Hamas on Monday condemned the killing by U.S. forces of Osama bin Laden and mourned him as an “Arab holy warrior.”
“We regard this as a continuation of the American policy based on oppression and the shedding of Muslim and Arab blood,” Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas administration in the Gaza Strip, told reporters.
Though he noted doctrinal differences between bin Laden’s al Qaeda and Hamas, Haniyeh said: “We condemn the assassination and the killing of an Arab holy warrior. We ask God to offer him mercy with the true believers and the martyrs.”

Fake humanitarians despondent.
Like the Tundra Taloids has been telling its readers for a very long time now, there is no humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and all who are involved in trying to break the legal anti-weapons blockade of Gaza, are in essence backing the genocidal terrorist organization, Hamas, in its quest to murder Jews.

But Redmatn did go on to criticize Israel for maintaining a partial embargo on certain goods, such as cement, which can and has been used by terrorist forces to build bunkers.
“Israel has the legitimate right to protect the civilian population, [but] this right should be balanced with the right of 1.5 million people living in the Gaza Strip,” said Redmatn. “…difficulties in importing building materials [has] hampered sustainable economic recovery and dashed any hope of leading a normal and dignified life.”
Israelis would argue that a territory that elects terrorists as its leaders and then facilitates the launching of thousands of missiles at a neighboring territory has forfeited the right to a “normal and dignified life.”

(CNN) — The Israel Defense Forces arrested two people it identified as responsible for the massacre of an Israeli family in the West Bank settlement of Itamar, officials said Sunday.
The two suspects, Amjad Awad. 19. and Hakim Awad, 28, were caught in the nearby Palestinian village of Awarta, Israeli General Security Services said. Six others have been arrested for helping them.
The pair are accused of killing Udi and Ruth Fogel and three of their children last month. The children were ages 11 years, 4 years and 3 months.
The two men were members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, but acted independently, the security services said. They decided on the attack a few days before the killings, the officials said.
According to the investigation, the pair were unsuccessful in an initial attempt to acquire a gun, but on the night of the killings broke into an empty house in the settlement and stole an M-16 rifle.
They entered the Fogel’s home and stabbed two of the children, before struggling with the parents and stabbing and shooting them, the security services said. They fled the house, fearing the shots would have been heard, but then returned to steal another weapon and stabbed the baby, the officials said. Continue Reading →

The Muslim Brotherhood announced plans to launch TV channel “Egypt 25” next month to represent their proposed Freedom and Justice Party. The group also said it plans to move its headquarters from the Manial to Moqattam neighborhood of Cairo.
The Brotherhood plans to launch the channel within two weeks, at which time it will announce the budget for the station, said member Sobhi Saleh.
“We make use of media professionals and experts from within and outside our administrative offices and from within and outside Egypt,” said Saad al-Husseini, a member of the group’s guidance bureau.
Al-Husseini said the group is checking the opinions of its local councils in various governorates on its party platform, which he said would be announced after the committee responsible for drafting the platform discusses the feedback.
The Muslim Brotherhood said it is waiting for a fair trial for former President Hosni Mubarak, his family, and the officials of the former regime in retribution for the deaths of protesters. A fair trial would prevent future presidents from repeating the ‘pharaonic acts’ of the old regime and would also help Egypt recover any stolen funds, according to the group.
In a press statement, the group supported activists’ decision to suspend Friday protests this week, saying it would give authorities time to conduct investigations into corrupt officials.
The group added in its statement Thursday that people will take to the streets again if their demands are not met.
The Brotherhood also called on all classes to contribute to national production and prove that Egyptians are capable of saving their country from an economic crisis.
The Toronto Star…Nearly $15 million of Canadian charitable donations were sent overseas to groups the taxman has labelled terrorist organizations, according to a federal audit obtained by the Toronto Star.
The audit states that International Relief Fund for the Afflicted and Needy Canada (IRFAN-Canada) used “deceptive fundraising” to support Hamas.
The Canada Revenue Agency announced its decision to revoke the status of the Mississauga-based charity last week. A lawyer for IRFAN-Canada said the charity has appealed the decision.
“Canada Revenue Agency’s position is really built on a pillar of sand,” said Naseer Syed.
However, a CRA report states that “IRFAN-Canada is an integral part of an international fundraising effort to support Hamas.” Hamas is considered a terrorist organization by Canada, the U.S., the European Union and Israel.
IRFAN-Canada created promotional videos that the CRA said “demonize Israel, characterize the Arab-Israeli conflict as a religious war, appeal for all Arab and Muslim nations to join in the struggle against Israel and glorify martyrdom.” Continue Reading →
FRANCE 24… Arab League Secretary General Amr Mussa announced Sunday his intention to appeal to the UN Security Council for a no-fly zone over Gaza, where repeated Israeli air strikes have left at least 18 people dead since Thursday.
AFP – Arab League chief Amr Mussa said on Sunday the organisation will ask the UN Security Council to impose a no-fly zone over Gaza, which Israel has pounded with air strikes in response to rocket fire.
Mussa told an emergency meeting of Arab League ambassadors that “the Arab bloc in the United Nations has been directed to ask for the convention of the Security Council to stop the Israeli aggression on Gaza and impose a no-fly zone.”
Israeli and Palestinian officials were on Sunday floating a ceasefire to end fighting in the coastal strip where Israeli air strikes have killed at least 18 people since Thursday.
But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned of an even stronger response if more rockets are fired from the Palestinian territory controlled by the Islamist movement Hamas.
The flare-up came after an anti-tank missile fired from Gaza hit an Israeli school bus on Thursday, wounding two people, one of them critically.
Even if Arab representatives at the United Nations succeed in convening a Security Council meeting, the United States, a close ally of Israel, is likely to veto it.
The Arab League request for a no-fly zone over Gaza may have been inspired by a UN-sanctioned aerial blockade for Libya to halt forces loyal to Moamer Kadhafi harming civilians.
Arab League backing for that no-fly zone was seen as crucially important by the United States when it pressed for a UN resolution that authorised it and other countries to keep Libyan planes grounded.
As cool as this footage is, for me it brought home the reality of living with this threat year after year. Now I get why they call it ‘terrorism’. There is nothing military or warrior like about lobbing death filled missiles at people.
