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

Convicted jihad murderer of six Israelis elected Palestinian mayor of Hebron

May 14, 2017 5:12 am By Robert Spencer

“Mr. President, I affirm to you that we are raising our youth, our children, our grandchildren on a culture of peace,” Abbas claimed when he met Trump in Washington. “And we are endeavoring to bring about security, freedom and peace for our children to live like the other children in the world, along with the Israeli children in peace, freedom and security.”

“War is deceit,” said Muhammad.

“Convicted murderer of six Israelis elected as Palestinian mayor of Hebron,” Jerusalem Post, May 14, 2017:

Tayseer Abu Sneineh, the convicted murderer of six Israelis, was reportedly elected mayor of the West Bank city of Hebron on Saturday as head of the Fatah Party list.

Abu Sneineh was one of four Palestinians behind the murder of six Israeli yeshiva students in 1980.

The students, included two American citizens and a Canadian national, were part of a group that had danced from the Cave of the Patriarchs to Beit Hadassah in Hebron when Abu Sneineh and his terror cell opened fire. The six students were killed and 16 others were wounded.

The Palestinians were convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison but were later released in various prisoner exchanges Israel carried out throughout the 1980s. Tayseer Abu Sneineh was released in a prisoner swap in 1983.

In response to the election, deputy head of the Shomron Regional Council Davidi Ben Sion called on President Donald Trump to cancel his planned meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas….

    Would a mass murderer become the mayor of any US city? No chance? So why do Pallies choose a murderer to represent them?

    THEY ARE BARBARIANS WHO FOLLOW A 7th CENTURY DEATH CULT.

      Motto of early Muslims: “We love death.”

      Motto of Muslim Brotherhood: “Jihad is our way, and death for Allah is our most exalted wish.”

    Killers such as sneineh are considered heroes in the perverted islamic culture. No wonder a palestinian would be a disaster.

    Trump is supposed to be a shrewd businessman, but maybe he can be sold a bill of goods like any other chump.

    The most poignant aspect of this story is the prevailing mindset of the masses that would would elect such an evil fiend to represent them.

    You get the government you deserve. The Palestinians celebrate the deeds of this miserable excuse for humanity. They deserve everything that he does to them.

    Do not blame terrorist and those who DESIGNATED him as their “mayor” (I do not wish to use misleading word “elected” in this context), blame those who released him from prison, who foolishly thought that they will gain “land for peace” or believed in those “prisoner exchanges.” FOOLS!!! Most of those fools are dead by now (he was released in 1983) – contemporary Jews living in Israel are paying price, and no “peace” is on sight.

    Note the huge zebibah on his forehead! Most surely, ‘the mark of the devil’…

    TAQIYYA = lying in the service of Islam. Abbas is practicing taqiyya when he disingenuously tells President Trump, “Mr. President, I affirm to you that we are raising our youth, our children, our grandchildren on a culture of peace.” It would be laughable if it weren’t so dangerous. Doesn’t Donald Trump know that PEACE to Abbas means when all the world is Muslim and when Israel no longer exists??? Look at what the Palestinians are DOING not what Abbas is SAYING Mr. President – or you will be added to the long list of ineffectual American presidents who don’t bother translating the Arabic speeches of the Palestinians into English because those speeches expose the true intentions of their leaders. This is groundhog Day and very disappointing.
