Outrage: Israel Kills 8 Year Old Civilian Schoolgirl, Whose Interests Include Ponies, Bratz, and Serving as a 52-Year-Old Male Cleric/Murderer for Hamas
Little Jenny Fischer (nom de guerre Sheikh Nizar Rayyan)
had dreams of one day becoming a veterinarian
and/or ridding the world of Jews.
So sad:
Sheikh Nizar Rayyan, 52, a senior Hamas leader and cleric, was killed along with several others on Thursday when an IAF aircraft dropped a bomb on the eight-story Jabalya apartment building he lived in, the IDF said.
Palestinian medics said that nine people were killed, including two of Rayyan's four wives and four of his 12 children, and around 30 were wounded in the air strike.
...
Rayyan's house was serving as an arms and ammunition warehouse and as a Hamas communications center, a statement released by the government press office said.
According to the statement, many secondary explosions were identified as a result of the attack, thus proving that the house was used for storing weaponry.
Security officials said that Rayyan was not only the religious leader of Hamas's military wing, Izzadin Kassam, but also one of their military commanders. He was often seen in uniform, and participated in military exercises. He was considered one of the most fanatical Hamas commanders, and was said to be close to Hamas terrorist Salah Shehadeh, who was killed by the IAF in 2002.
He was both the director and the financier of the 2004 terrorist attack at Ashdod's port which killed ten Israelis.
I have no idea how we can ever break this cycle of violence.
Oh, wait, yes I do: Palestinians can stop murdering people. That should do the trick.
