This is yet another reaffirmation that the fight against Israel is for Islam's sake and for the glory of Allah. From YNET News:
Abu Sai’d, a wanted Islamic Jihad member, describes his life in a hideout in the northern West Bank: He sleeps during the day and is awake at night - always on alert and constantly praying.“Living under the gun is nothing new, but no doubt it is difficult. It’s like the life of each person who prays to God to live in the next world in the Garden of Eden,” says Abu Sai’d.
No major changes have occurred in his life lately, yet the fact that only Islamic Jihad members are red-marked targets by Israel does not make Abu Sa’id’s life any easier.
A devout Jihad member, Abu Sai’d’s life revolves around three main activities: Sleeping during the day, guarding the hideout at night and planning responses “to the enemy’s crimes.”
Family meetings are limited to once a week or once every few weeks, but the distance and lack of contact with loved ones are easier than the more difficult task of remaining safe.
“In fact we have been in the same situation since the start of the intifada. Thank God, this is our part in this life in this world: To live as a Mujahed (Muslim fighter) in the hope that in the end we will live near Prophet Mohammed in the Garden of Eden,” he says.
His conviction is that the fight against Israel is not based on “killing for the sake of killing”; the intifada is a war for the sake of Islam and the “homeland” Palestine. In this respect Abu Sa’id explains his perception of the conflict with Israel: “It is a war against Islam and as the enemies are killing us, it is impossible that people from the criminal side don’t die.”
...who prays to God to live in the next world in the Garden of Eden
Cretin.
"Dog bites Man" doesnt make news, "Man bites Dog" does. Jihadist vows eternal battle against Isreal, that tired old dog just isnt headlines anymore. How about "Jihadist regrets his choices, and enters a Kibbutz Rehab Program". Now THAT would be news.
The slant of the article tried to evoke sympathy for the rebel-without-a-clue Abu S'aid, with its suggestions that he has to constantly live under worry and cant even see his family. It made me smirk - as I was glad to read that he lives like a prisoner already, confined to his 'safe house'.
How glorious it will be when he is finally put in a proper cell, and made to live the remainder of his days, like he does now, without the ability to walk around freely. He can then wax phillosophically about the under-appreciated plight of "political martyrdom". Haa haa.
If the jailors wanted to be truly inhumane, they should force this dirt-bag to share a pig's pen on a kibbutz when he is finally captured. Oh the sweet taste of irony.
From the article:
“We are defending ourselves. Israel killed and we have to defend ourselves. The attacks are part of our self-defense strategy.”
This is why I think walling off the Palestinians is so important (in leiu of expelling them, which in another era would be possible). The "crimes" Israel committed will never end. These Jihaists will self-defend their way to the sea, over piles of dead Jews. Nothing will be enough for them - they are fighting for Islam.

Hopefully IDF will drop a Hellfire missile into the window of his safehouse..real soon.
Look out virgins here I come, Babaloo Allah (God is groovy)!
Hellfire is an Israeli missile?
A Muslim gang in my area is named "Hellfire"
Description: Hellfire is an air-to-ground, laser guided, subsonic missile with significant antitank capacity. It can also be used as an air-to-air weapon against helicopters or slow-moving fixed-wing aircraft.
Features: Hellfire can be used as an air-to-air or an air-to-ground missile. The Air-to-Ground (AGM)-114 provides precision striking power against tanks, structures, bunkers and helicopters. The Hellfire missile is capable of defeating any known tank in the world today. It can be guided to the target either from inside the aircraft or by lasers outside the aircraft.
The crux of the problem is that Israel exists on what was once Muslim ruled territory. The Muslim imperative is to recapture any land that was once theirs. Spain is far away but Israel is right near the heart of Islam - Mecca and Medina. So Muhammadans are hysterical about the Jewish home. 50% of Israelis are Jews evicted from Arab nations post WW2. Islam will never accept their former Dhimmis being independent. Not under the Muslim yoke
I'm Jewish and support Israel 100%
If it comes down to an Armageddon of Islam vs. Israel I always support Israel
" ...this is our part in this life in this world: To live as a Mujahed (Muslim fighter) in the hope that in the end we will live near Prophet Mohammed in the Garden of Eden,” he says
Then come out of hiding motherF#@*^r. You want paradise? We're happy to send you there

On a previous JW thread, CAIRS PHONY FATWA, a self-described moderate Muslim poster, known to us as Mohideen Ibramsha, replied to the statement made by Hugh
as follows:
I replied
and then challenged Mohideen with this:
Mohideen's reply:
Followed by Hugh's analysis:
The conclusion is obvious: in Islam a Jewish state can not exist. No reason need be given since any reason will at any time be proferred.
This dirtbag's life is severely time dated.
May the only blood he spills be his own.
..imagine his chagrin when the IDF fires him up and he awakens in the garden of Hades, not Eden..

Here is an interesting news story concerning Israel and her neighbours, including "moderate" Turkey. Warning though to all rabid atheists on this site - this is from a Christian web site - K House - in the US. Look at who is arming Israel's enemies, including the PA.
STRATEGIC TRENDS UPDATE: THE MAGOG INVASION - (Print)
Reports indicate that Iran is planning to assist Syria with its chemical warfare program. Iran will aid Syria in the development and initial operation of about five facilities for the production of sarin nerve agents, mustard blister agents, and even VX poison gas – the deadliest nerve agent ever created. With Iran’s help Syria hopes it can eventually achieve independent production capability.
Revelations about Syria’s chemical weapons program couldn’t come at a worse time. Currently Syria is under tremendous pressure from the international community to cooperate with UN investigators who are looking into the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. The United States, Britain, and France, all permanent Security Council members, have proposed a resolution threatening tough sanctions on Syria if it doesn't cooperate with the UN probe. Hariri and 19 other individuals were killed in a bombing in Beirut in February. It is widely believed that Syria is directly responsible for Hariri’s death. However, instead of silencing an influential critic, Syria has made Hariri a martyr and brought international attention to the situation in Lebanon. Hariri’s death was the catalyst that brought about the Syrian withdrawal from Lebanon. Syria removed its troops in April, ending its 29-year military presence in the war-torn nation.
Many experts believe that a large-scale confrontation between Israel and its neighbors could be on the near horizon. Thus making Syria’s growing relationship with nations such as Iran and Russia more concerning. Over the past year or so, partly as a consequence of the war in Iraq, Russia has been carefully cultivating ties with Turkey, Iran and Syria. After losing the Mid-East foothold provided by Saddam Hussein's Iraq, the Russians have been building a new axis of power based on those three key countries. Russia is now Turkey's second-largest trading partner, with a volume of $10 billion in trade per year. Russia has also strengthened ties with Iran by supplying it with nuclear-related technologies. Earlier this year Russia and Syria made plans to increase diplomatic and military cooperation. Russia wrote-off approximately 10 billion dollars of Syria’s Soviet-era debt and has supplied Syria with Russian made SA-18 surface-to-air missiles, in spite of Israel’s objections.
In a related development, the Palestinian Authority recently disclosed that Russian military experts have been sent to the Gaza Strip to train Palestinian security forces. In addition to training, Russia is prepared to provide the Palestinians with armored vehicles, ammunition, and helicopters. However Israel is adamantly opposed, and has refused to sign-off on the deal.
The increased military cooperation between the Palestinians, Syria, Iran, Russia, and Turkey could be a sign that the famed battle prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39 is on our near horizon. It is during this battle, that God will directly intercede to protect Israel from Magog and its allies. The Magog Invasion is just one of the Strategic Trends that we monitor on a regular basis, for more information check out our website.

3rdtimelucky..
Russia also provided the launch vehicle for
iran to launch its communication/spy satellite
(Sina-1) a week or so ago..
and debkafiles reported that those russian 'advisers' to the palestinians may be
associated with purchase by the paleos of russian
Ishtar rockets which russia also sells to iran..
..sure smells like a "Hard rain's gonna fall" in the region.
Debkafiles sums up current situation..
"The serious security deterioration can be summed up by -
1. The influx of a huge, illegal war arsenal from Sinai into Palestinian Gaza;
2. Al Qaeda-Sinai’s establishment of a Gaza cell;
3. The ascending spiral of Palestinian terrorist attacks in and from the West Bank, supported from a logistical base in Gaza;
4. Intense Palestinian preparations for a Qassam missile and mortar offensive against densely populated central Israel. "
Not Ishtar, but Iskander SS-26 being sold to
Syria..(not certain about iran..from debka:Moscow Arms Assad with a Top-Flight Surface Missile
October 10, 2005, 12:29 PM (GMT+02:00)
"Iskander SS-26: Too fast and flexible for known electronic defenses to stop
Two generals were in Moscow on the same day, September 26: the head of Israel’s National Security Council Maj.-Gen (Res.) Giora Eiland and the Syrian chief of staff General Ali Habib. Both also called on the Russian chief of staff, Gen. Yuri Baluyevski. The Syrian general came out of his meeting with a brilliant contract for the sale of the advanced Iskander SS-26 surface missile. The Israeli general ran into a blank wall when he tried to persuade the Russian to withhold the missile from the Assad regime. Last January, when the deal was first broached, the Bush administration stepped in and obtained a promise from president Vladimir Putin to call off the sale, as did Israel’s Ariel Sharon during the Russian president’s visit in May.
Putin has broken those pledges.
DEBKA-Net-Weekly 224 revealed in its detailed report on September 30 -
For a speedy delivery in the first quarter of 2006, the Syrians paid cash.
The value of the transaction is unknown but it certainly runs into hundreds of million dollars, given that Syria has purchased 26 of the most advanced missile of its kind in use anywhere in the world.
The United States and NATO have code-named the Iskander SS-26 “Stone.” They have nothing in their missile arsenal to match its unique attributes.
With a 400-km range and a 480-kilo warhead composed of 54 elements, the missile hits a target within a 20-meter radius. Two missiles with a range of 280km are mounted on each launch pad. The system can be used against small and large targets alike, easily overcoming air defenses. It is almost impossible for existing electronic weapons systems to prevent the Iskander’s launch because of its speed and high flexibility. Its targets are found in mid-flight by satellites, accompanying airplanes, conventional intelligence centers or a lone soldier directing artillery fire. Targets may also be found by feeding photos into the missile’s computer by means of a scanner.
The self-direction device functions even in fog, darkness or storms. The name Iskander is Alexander (the Great) in the Turkoman language. Weighing 3,800 kilos it is operated by a crew of three. It comes in two versions: the 500-kilo version provided the Russian Army and the 280-kilo missile sold to Syria."

Otterfisher - If there wasn't so much evidence showing Russia what they are really doing - it would be hard to believe.
I guess the Russian Bear is really scared of all those Nuclear armed Muslim countries in Russia's underbelly (Nuclear armed courtsey of the USSR during the cold war).
The enemy's 'crimes' include not being a Muslim, believing in a deity that forbids killing except in self-defense, defending itself, and existing!
Wow! That's really shocking there, my fine, explosive-laden friend...
