"Moderate"

from LGF:

Notice that Agence Fwance Presse will not even use the word “terrorist” to describe a convicted mass murderer who plotted to blow up a bus full of women and children: Palestinian militant jailed for life over bus bombing.

And notice also that they describe the Fatah (Arabic for “Conquest”) party as “moderate,” even though it’s responsible for these acts of mass murder.

JERUSALEM (AFP) - A Palestinian militant was handed 12 life sentences by an Israeli military court after being found guilty of involvement in a suicide bombing that killed 11 people.

Hilmi Hamash, 24, from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades group affiliated to Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas’s moderate Fatah party, was found guilty of helping the bomber who blew himself up on a Jerusalem bus on January 29, 2004.

Here is a video of the aftermath of this attack by “moderate militants.” (Warning: very graphic.)

I recommend watching the video. We have to understand exactly what it is that the media refuses to call terrorism. I don't understand how modern Western human beings can deny the barbarity of this enemy. I cannot comprehend how any human being could be motivated to whitewash an attack like this. Surely they have no soul, or it would be crying out in condemnation.

Let's get some perspective, by looking back at that last week of January 2004:

*Bus Bombing in Jerusalem*

Ten people were murdered and 50 wounded when a suicide bomber exploded inside a bus on the corners of Gaza and Arlozorov streets, near the Prime Minister's residence in Jerusalem's Rehavia neighborhood at about 8:45 Thursday morning...

Assistant director general of Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital Prof. Shmuel Shapira said ... most of the wounded were suffering from lesions caused by metal shards and from the impact of the explosion. "They put in metal balls, nails and bolts into these bombs," Shapira said.

Cancelling a trilateral meeting between Israel, the Palestinian Administration and US envoys John Wolf and David Satterfield, the Israeli foreign ministry and Prime Minister's ofice issued a joint statement saying,

"On this difficult day for Israel, in which innocent Israelis are murdered on the streets of its capital, there is no room for concessions to the Palestinian public."

Diplomatic officials said the prisoner swap with the Hizbullah would continue despite the attack.

Petition:

We the undersigned are outraged with the news of the Israeli government destroying a synagogue in Israel that was built in memory of Rabbi Meir Kahane and his son and daughter in law who were all murdered by Arab terrorists. We call on the Sharon government to stop harassing the Kahane followers and to allow them to build their Shul.
