Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

American Muslims for Palestine official says photo of injured Israeli soldiers is “the most beautiful site [sic] in my eyes”

Jul 26, 2014 10:44 am By Robert Spencer

AMP beautiful siteStill more open savagery and bloodlust from the supporters of the “Palestinians.” They know that there is nothing that they can do that will stop the mainstream media from covering for them, so the mask is off this time.

“AMP Official Defends Hamas, Praises Israeli Casualties,” IPT News, July 21, 2014:

The group American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) does not shy away from its support for the terrorist organization Hamas. The group’s National Campus Coordinator, Taher Herzallah, recently posted Palestine TV photos of injured Israeli soldiers and a destroyed tank to his personal Facebook page. The caption for both photos read: “The most beautiful site in my eyes.” It appears that this post has been removed.

Herzallah proudly lists being part of the ‘Irvine 11’, a group of students arrested after orchestrating a plan to shut down a speech by then-Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren’s 2010 speech at UC Irvine, in his biography.

In another recent Facebook comment, Herzallah justified Hamas rocket fire aimed at Israeli civilians, saying that “in order for them [Israeli society] to feel any compulsion or urge to end the occupation, they need to feel that they are in an abnormal situation. In that regard, Hamas’ rockets are effective even though they don’t kill anyone.”

Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005. It imposed a blockade on the territory after rocket fire targeted its civilians, in an attempt to stem the flow of weapons and bomb-making material coming in.

American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) was formed in 2006 as a nonprofit organization based in Chicago with chapters around the country. Its message omits any mention of peaceful coexistence with Israel, and routinely includes calls for an end for U.S. aid to the Jewish state. The AMP is a founding member of the new U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations, joining the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the Muslim American Society (MAS) and the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).

In April, AMP hosted a fundraiser dinner praising Rasmieh Odeh, a women directly responsible for two deaths in an Israeli grocery store bombing. Odeh was indicted in October and charged with naturalization fraud after failing to disclose her arrest and subsequent imprisonment in Israel for her role in the 1969 bombings by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Other event speakers included a Muslim Brotherhood leader in Jordan who led a Hamas-propaganda arm in the United States and a man listed as a member of the Palestine Committee, the Muslim Brotherhood’s umbrella organization of US-based Hamas-support groups.

Previous conferences featuring AMP speakers demonstrate the group’s radical tendencies with AMP officials repeatedly calling for grassroots efforts to delegitimize Israel in the U.S. and promote Palestinian “resistance.”

    This vicious way of thinking is rather natural for a Muslim who is thoroughly infected by Islam. So it should be of no surprise that a militant Muslim would have this malice mindset. This kind of malicious mentality is produced by Islam.
    In other words this cruel and brutal mindset is the effect of Islam and its the fruit of Islam. As Jesus had taught “By their fruit you will recognize them.” Matthew 7:20. [N.I.V.]

      All of you are guilty of the massacre of innocent men women and children. If you were human and watched the broken little bodies murdered by Zionist Nazi bastards you would think differently but you are no longer part of the human race. You are without doubt the scum of humanity, An abhorrition. Rambling about fucking Jesus 3 thousand years ago. He was a jew! like you cunts. and Jews brought nothing but war on this earth. Muslims believe in allah the same stupid fucking GOD you pricks believe in. But babies don’t believe in anything except laughter. The end has begun for Israelis occupying Palestine and I’m glad.

        @bernard, you are a typical vulgarity spewing Muslim. You are just brimming over with hatred. How about the fact that Muslims hide their weapons in homes and behind women and children? The cowardice of Muslims never ceases to amaze. And learn some history- Jews are the indigenous people to that area- in fact 99% of the ‘Muslim world’ is land stolen by Muslims who do everything they can to oppress and kill the adherents of the indigenous religions- as Muslims in Egypt are murdering Coptic Christians. The day will come when Muslims are driven from the CHRISTIAN lands they invaded. The sooner Islam becomes an extinct cult, the better off this world will be

        Sorry, bernard small
        Allah was the name used by a self-serving blasphemous false prophet to excuse his butchery and lusts after he was chased out of Mecca by a posse of honorable men.
        His ideology was formed after he tried to convert a donkey to Islam but the donkey outwitted Muhammad nevertheless.

        Of all the Christians and Jews I have met and known in the last 56 year’s,
        not one of them has made a statement like yours. Your statement is so filled with hatred and lies that it is offensive to any normal human. You
        really need help from medical professionals. Your extremism is the biggest threat to peace and non violence I have ever seen. I will pray for you none the less.

      No need to provoke wacko bernard small in that manner.

      While it is sad whenever innocent life is lost (including children)
      the MSM consistently covers for Islam when Muslims instigate and then play victim.

      Oh, you are **so** stupid.

      Israel is righteously kicking Hamas arse, and you just can’t **stand** it ! 🙂

      ”We got the kuffar round our little pinky finger alright! Were doing just what we like in Hind and Lavent and China and Afrika and Europe”

      Well, you’re certainly demonstrating to all civilised human beings, the black heart at the centre of islam. We can clearly see, through your **own videos** in many cases, your vicious Jew hatred, and your hatred of everything that is decent and good.

      The fact that you think the evil and horrendous acts you are carrying out, ”in Hind and Lavent and China and Afrika and Europe” is somehow laudable, is yet another example of how far you have strayed from what it really means to be human.

      ”They pick the strong horse”

      Yet again, I’m afraid, you merely illustrate the moral paucity of your stance. Might has never made right, in any decent society.

      ”you donkeys. Our patients and dilligence has payed off divedinds. Allah Akhbar!”

      Yeah, right. The Israelis are kicking your arse.

      Do you really think we give a tuppeny damn how many mohammedans murder other mohammedans,, in any Islamic shit hole ? I certainly don’t ! Go for it, let sunnis kill Shiites, let you all kill ahmadis, druze, Sufis, whatever the hell you like. You’re all repulsive idiots.

      You are as stupid as these counter jihadis. Palestine Liberation Organization sided with the Kuffa-oops Serbs who murdered and raped Bosnian and Albanian Muslims. The Kuffa-whoops Serbs got the Palestinians around their pinkies bleeding sympathy for their cause. The same Arafat who people hold portraits up of, is the same Arafat who sympathized with the Serbs and Milosevic. The same Serbs who did just what they liked-raping and killing Muslims got applause and support from Arafat.

      Arafat also called the Hindu Indian PM Indira Gandhi as his “sister”.

      Arafat’s PLO also supported the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia (ASALA) in Lebanon, to assasinate and kill Turkish diplomats in revenge for the Armenian genocide.

      Arafat and the Palestinian Liberation Organization have sided with Christians, Hindus, etc. against non-Arab Muslims on numerous occasions.

      Meanwhile, even as Erdogan throws a public hissy fit against israel and pretends to cancel diplomatic relations, under the table, his government is actually expanding trade deals with israel. Turkey is now making israel its main bridgehead for shipping goods into Jordan.

      Saddam Hussein also sided with Russians and said that Chechens should not fight Russia, because he said Russia and India were not enemies of Islam but rather that Russia and India were friends of Arabs and Muslims.

      http://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Appeal_From_President_Saddam_Hussein_to_All_Muslims%2C_and_in_Particular_to_Muslims_in_Chechnya

      Arab Muslims have historically been very secular in their choice of making alliances.

      There is no grand conspiracy or unity to take over the world. Both you and counterjihadists are full of shit.

    Isn’t it interesting how they always describe their own activities with perfection – but replace the name with Israel? You can find their strategies and methods by merely removing the name Israel from their rants.

    Hamas is not a terrorist organization. They are people fighting for the right to live and be free from the zionist nazi murdering Israelites. The scourge of Humanity.

      ” zionist nazi murdering Israelites”

      Interesting use of adjetives
      The way I choose to read this is:
      They are Zionist Israelites who murder Nazis

      Therefore Bernard Small is unknowingly saying that Hamas are Nazis

      our Holy book teaches that before a king goes to battle he is to “counts the cost”. if the enemy has overwhelming numbers or weapons he is then to talk/make peace with the enemy. too bad some people are victims of a “lesser/stupid god”!

      “Zionist nazi”? What’s next, “black KKK”? Also, why is hamas opposed to the murder of israelites by zionist nazis? I thought hamas wants to get rid of the israelites, shouldn’t they be like, helping them? You’re not making any sense Bernard.

    What the hell is wrong with these folks. They are not really Americans!! They may have been born here but they are not true Americans. How sick can any human be that they like to see other humans suffer. I am against islam, but I’m not happy to see dead people of any kind. It is sad and says a lot for the state of humans in the world today!!!!
