Palestinians debate Kalandiya bombing

"They are wrong. We should raise our voice against them." Just what we need to hear from Muslims about suicide attacks, right? The man who said this was referring to the Wednesday bombing at the Kalandiya checkpoint near Jerusalem, which killed two Palestinians and wounded 10 others, along with six Israeli guards.

But there's the rub: Palestinians are upset with the bombing because it killed Muslims, not because it killed human beings in general. From AP, with thanks to Teri:

"They are wrong. We should raise our voice against them," said one angry man.

Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility for the attack and apologized for the Palestinian casualties. It said the intended target was Jerusalem, and that the assailant hastily set off the 20 kilograms of explosives by remote control when he felt Israeli security forces were closing in on him....

"Such attacks harm the Palestinian cause," said Hassan Abu Libdeh, the Palestinian Cabinet secretary. "These groups must avoid every spot where there is a possibility that a Palestinian will be there."

Abu Sneineh refused to acknowledge that her husband, Salah, 60, was killed by Palestinians. "Arabs couldn't have killed him, only Israelis," the woman said.

Yes, the Israelis did kill him. Know how?

They Exist.

That is the Only rational this woman has for blaming Israelis.

Need one say more?? Typical fanatical Muslim Mindset.

I'm sure that the families of the two Palestinians killed will come around when their relative will be declared a martyrs, when they'll name streets after them, and put posters of them in the schools, and put their faces on the terrorist cards (like Pokemon or Baseball Cards in the west), and most importantly when they'll get generous financial rewards from the PA.

The widow says: "Arabs couldn't have killed him, only Israelis," of course not! Have you ever heard an Arab blow an innocent civilian up, just because that person was at the wrong place at the wring time????

OK so this guy misses his target and kills his friendlie's, does he still become a martyr and receive 72 virgins in heaven or does he go to the fiery depths.

Yes, this guy will get his virgins but not 72. He will personally bargain with Allah and Allah will tell him that although he killed some of his friendlie's, his intention was for Allah's cause and because of that he will get virgins, maybe not 72, but 10.
