“Islamic Jihad Terrorists Planned Mass Casualty Attack at Israeli Wedding,” by Andrew Friedman, Breaking Israel News, October 21, 2016:

The Beer Sheva District Attorney filed indictments Thursday against four individuals from southern Israel and the Gaza Strip on suspicion that they were planning a mass-casualty terror attack at a wedding hall.

Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) officials said the leader of the cell, Mahmoud Yusuf Hasin Abu-Taha was arrested on September 21 when he tried to enter Israel from Gaza via the Erez Border Crossing for business purposes. Investigators said Abu-Taha worked for Islamic Jihad and also planned to kidnap and murder an IDF soldier in order to trade the body for Israeli concessions.Other members of the cell included 55-year-old Shafik Hamad Ahmad Abu-Taha, 39-year-old Ahmad Taysir Abd Elrahman Abu-Taha and 40-year-old Massoud Nasser Abu-Amra.

All members of the cell were originally from Gaza, but have spent recent years in Israel. Abu-Amra, originally from Deir el-Balah, now resides in Tel Sheva, near Beer Sheva, after receiving permanent resident status following an application to move to Israel on “family reunification” ground

Hamad Ahmad Abu-Taha and Ahmad Taysir Abd Elrahman Abu-Taha have been living in Israel illegally.

Investigators said Shafik Hamad Ahmad Abu-Taha worked at the wedding hall where the group planned to carry out the attack. While there he observed the hall and planned an attack that would cause the maximum number of casualties.

At the same time, Mahmoud Yusuf Hasin Abu-Taha received thousands of shekels from the Islamic Jihad in order to prepare for the second attack. According to the indictment, the funds were used to rent an apartment in Israel to be used as a hideout after kidnapping a soldier. The group planned to murder the soldier, bury the body and bring his belongings to Gaza in order to trade them….

    That photo. These savages KNOW they are doing wrong. Else why mask their faces. And, as cowardly rats escaping a sinking ship, why dress up in women’s clothing to save your own worthless hide?
    Everything I’ve learned over the past 50 years concerning Muslims and their doings, has done nothing to endear them or their vile cult to any one!
    It is a sad commentary on one Billion people of this Earth, that they would chose to follow the teachings of a corrup and Insane PSYCOPATH from the seventh century.
    This horrific Cult should have been erased from history long, long ago.
    It is indeed, even sadder that the rest of humanity chooses to sit by and allow this insipid evil to continue to grow and spread. There is nothing to salvage from the excrement that is Islam. No gold coin or cut gem mixed in with the sewage.
    Wake up People!
    Else, before you know it, your
    own head will be mounted on a pike at the entrance to some Demons tent!

      David, you argued from ignorance by asking, “Else why mask their faces.” Surely you can do better than that simple minded silliness. I know that most mujahids could do better, and I’m quite certain that the “savages” do not “KNOW they are doing wrong”. On the contrary, they are quite convinced that they are right and that you deserve to lose.

      I believe that your complaint about disguises was rooted much less in reality than in an impotent rage about the facts that the mujahids are not stupid and that they are not perverse enough to act against conscience. It’s self-evident that your thoughts and beliefs have diverged greatly from reality, and a person deserves to lose if his thoughts and beliefs are more greatly divergent from reality than his enemies’ thoughts and beliefs.

        So Allen, you are here to defend people who make it thier goal to murder as many people as possible during the joyous celebration of marriage. In other words you defend the vicious, cowardly, murder of non-combatants, women, children, and the elderly.
        You are an evil person by any proper definition of evil.
        Also, David is completely correct in his assessment of the wicked ideas of islam.
        And thirdly, your English is abominable.

    These four members of Islamic Jihad deserve the death penalty . They should be hanged ( I don’t know why , but hanging is considered a very humiliating way of execution by muslims ) . I know this will not happen ; these four terrorists will be imprisoned for a long time . Israel is a very civilized country . Considering the circumstances , amazingly civilized !

    ”Investigators said Shafik Hamad Ahmad Abu-Taha worked at the wedding hall where the group planned to carry out the attack. While there he observed the hall and planned an attack that would cause the maximum number of casualties.”

    Never, never, ever employ muslims in *any* capacity. Israelis, of all people, should know better.

      Exactly. That was *my* ‘take-home’ from this story.

      We jihadwatchers need to *keep* copies of such examples of actual Muslims, in actual places of employment, in various infidel countries, who use their presence within non-Muslim workplaces or institutions, in order to plot or indeed inflict mass murder and mayhem against either their co-workers (see San Bernadino…) or against persons entering those locations.

      The opportunities for malevolent Muslims, at every level of infidel society, from cleaners and hotel maids on up to those in positions such as doctor or IT specialist, to wreak absolute mayhem – or to inflict death on a sneakier and more subtle scale (imagine the opportunities presented to a Muslim female working as a nurse or carer in a nursing home for the frail elderly, for example) are simply horrifying.

      The ill-will is *there*.

      Indeed. Just goes to show that even Israel is not immune to starry-eyed, naive fools who believe in the “religion of piece hijacked by a handful of extremists” nonsense.

    Yet another great photo.
    The face masked imbeciles. With the words “I belong to SATAN” scrolled right across their foreheads.
    When these savage imbeciles show up at my home, church or school, about two dozen citizens with CCW permits will know just what to do!
    AIN’T America great!

    Becoming jaded with these maniacs. What is the solution?

    • Michael says

      Oct 22, 2016 at 3:39 pm

      To completely crush Isis militarily.

      To throw out the monstrous, leftist leadership cadre all over the West.

      To secure our borders all over the West. To halt all immigration from islamic countries except for actual displaced, persecuted minorities.

      To buy not one more drop of oil from the ME. Redevelop our drilling, transport and refining capabilities to be energy self-sufficient and militarily strong.

      To cease all funding to the UN and all ME nations that cow tow to the saudis or iran. Kick the filthy UN out of New York and in it’s place create a coalition of Western nations for the preservation of freedom.

      To oblige iran with the war they so desperately want and eradicate their ability to make nuclear weapons or any weapons for that matter. If Russia wants to get nasty about it, well, they should not partner with the insane.

      Deport every muslim with the slightest sympathy with jihad or the implementation of sharia over the constitutional law of Western nations.Place them on transport ships run by remote control from an escort vessel. Escort them safely to a harbor as close as possible to country of origin. Insure they have a supply of food and water and bid them adieu. If their nations of origin will not have them then so be it.

      These measures would require a level of sacrifice and devotion we’ve not risen to lately. But those that love freedom, that value individual people, will understand the fight and all that is at stake.
