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

Gazan version of Snakes and Ladders trains children in “jihad” and “the Islamic faith”

Apr 13, 2017 9:41 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A Gazan version of “Snakes And Ladders” has been created, in which “players proceed towards Jerusalem using tunnels and rockets.”

The mission of the game, called “Reaching Jerusalem,” is, according to its creators, to help children remember their “cities of origin,” “strengthen the children’s military culture and love of jihad,” and to “produce future leaders and decision-makers raised on the principles of the Islamic faith.”

No matter how much information comes out of the Palestinian territories about indoctrinating children in jihad — including a military “summer camp” for children led by Hamas and Islamic Jihad — Israel is still widely blamed for blocking peace. Yet it is the Palestinian territories and surrounding Islamic states that seek a one-state solution: to obliterate Israel.

“In Gazan Version Of ‘Snakes And Ladders’ Board Game, Players Proceed Towards Jerusalem Using Tunnels, Rockets”, MEMRI, April 10, 2017:

A new board game for children called “Reaching Jerusalem” was recently launched in Gaza, created by a Gazan media producer who works at the Hamas Interior Ministry and aimed at “strengthening children’s military culture and love of jihad.” The game is a version of Snakes and Ladders in which the players’ objective is to reach Jerusalem. The “ladders” that bring the players closer to the finish line are tunnels and Hamas-manufactured rockets, such as R160, M75 and S55 rockets, whereas the “snakes” that hinder their progress are IDF tanks and helicopters. The board is sprinkled with illustrations of Hamas fighters lying in wait for the enemy, attacking, and crawling through tunnels, as well as photos of cities inside Israel, such as Tiberias, Ashdod, Acre, Haifa, Jaffa, Ramlah and Safed, where Palestinians lived before the founding of Israel and where many of them demand to return.

The Game’s Creator: The Purpose Of The Game Is To Strengthen Children’s Love Of Jihad, Instill Value Of Right Of Return

As mentioned, the game was created by a Gazan media producer, Muhammad Ramadan Al-Amriti, who works at the Hamas Interior Ministry. Al-Amriti, who is also the director of the Shams production company, has produced and directed several videos glorifying Hamas and its military activity. He said that the purpose of the game is to instill values of patriotism, courage and adherence to national principles, and strengthen the value of return among the children of Palestinian refugees.

Al-Amriti wrote on his Facebook page: “The game ‘Reaching Jerusalem’ is an important component in the correct upbringing [of our children] in the near future… We created this game so that children do not forget their cities of origin and in order to establish [these cities] in their consciousness, and also in order to strengthen the children’s military culture and love of jihad. The goal of the game… is to teach children the names of the occupied Palestinian villages and cities, so that [our] youngsters know that return to the homeland will be achieved only through resistance and jihad.”

According to Al-Amriti, another purpose of the game is to help produce future leaders and decision-makers raised on the principles of the Islamic faith….

    Islam’s founding motto: “WE LOVE DEATH”.

    -“Convert to Islam, and then you will be safe, for if you don’t, you should know that I have come to you with an army of men that love death, as you love life.” —Caliph Abu Bakr, Mohammed’s Successor
    -“According to Hassan al-Banna (founder of Muslim Brotherhood), the Koran enjoins believers to love death more than life. Unfortunately, he argues, Muslims are in thrall to a “love of life.”
    -“The illusion which had humiliated us is no more than the love of worldly life and the hatred of death.”
    “As long as the Muslims do not replace their love of life with the love of death as required by the Koran, their future is hopeless. Only those who become proficient in the ‘art of death’ can prevail. “So prepare yourself to do a great deed. Be keen on dying and life will be granted to you, so work towards a noble death and you will complete happiness.” (from ‘The Art of Death’, 1946)
    -“Whenever (the Muslim Brothers) marched in close formation through the streets of Cairo, their voices rang out with this song: “We are afraid not of death, but we desire it … How wonderful death is … Let us die in redemption for Muslims”, followed by the chorus, “Jihad is our course of action… and death in the cause of God our most precious wish.” – (quoted in Matthias Küntzel, Jihad and Jew-hatred: Islamism, Nazism and the Roots of 9/11)

    NEED MORE EVIDENCE THAT ISLAM IS A DEATH CULT?

    The above statement says it all, my subjective view tells me all theses radical Muslims only care about destroying the enemy no matter what it takes even if it means the loss of their children they love death better than their kids what a total waste of human brain. Death cult.

    Muslims, if you love death so much and you can’t wait for your 75 virgins, why don’t you kill yourselves and leave us alone? That is a fast way to do it. You should really take some rest, because you are going into a frenzy, we explained so many things to you, but you stay on yelling and screaming, it really looks
    mentally ill. In this life I will never forget this, but you will be called to pay for your atrocious actions.
    It is all there, and there will be no escape for you, and your prophet will not appear and help you, it will not be Thursday night in your “club” in New York, close by high buildings and you know, on any other day The prophet will see it and will get angry at you.
    Are you crazy or not? Look at yourselves, do you want to be that mentally crazy crowd? I would not, I would be so ashamed of myself, but obviously you don’t feel anything like that and I really feel in a way so sorry for you, anger has passed, because we can not comprehend it in a normal way, at least I should speak for myself and I do !!! May our God and Christ have pity on you, but you can’t duck the consequences, you are too late for that.

    I fully admit I must be one of the world’s biggest dopes….I just don’t get how ‘Arabs’ and descendants of
    Arabs in ‘Palestine’ have claim on that territory. In my simple mind, I ask ‘wouldn’t Arabs have to migrate from Arabia to get to ‘Palestine’…..isn’t there temple remains beneath ‘mo’s mosque in Jerusalem? Wasn’t the Jewish temple built ~ 3,000 plus years ago, predating the ‘mos’ by several thousand years? I think an easy answer (in my simple mind) as to who really ‘owns’ the lands….just go down to the land deed office in the West Bank….check who the rightful owners really are….oh, maybe there isn’t a land deed office….so where can we turn to for recorded history – extant documents that date back to that time period…..The Dead Sea scrolls (amongst lots of other extant documents) should have ample information on the well-established peoples dating back in antiquity.
    For sure, ‘Palestine’ has a deep complicated history of bloody conquests and reconquests, even Alexander the Great joined the party. And of course, the gentle, proselytizing ‘mo’s’ with their scimitars (just in case some might be a bit hesitant to fork over their treasure and pay homage to Allah and his messenger)…My feeble mind understands ‘to the victor goes the spoils’ – mo perfected that and still is. But I just don’t get how ‘Palestinians’ are the true heirs to that land when the Jews were there thousands of years before any Arab arrived and said, ‘this is mine’….

    ………………….

    I played Snakes and Ladders as a child. My English mother was thrilled to finally find it in the US, where it is less common than in Britain.

    Muslims screw up everything.
