Four-year-old girl vows to be suicide bomber in Hamas TV dramatization


Jong geleerd, oud gedaan. Al Aqsa TV, de officiele TV zender van Hamas bereidt Palestijnse kinderen al vroeg op hun heilige missie voor. Hoezo is Hamas pragmatisch geworden en zelfs een mogelijke vredespartner??

Four-year-old girl vows to be suicide terrorist in Hamas TV dramatization
by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook

Hamas TV broadcast today a video dramatization of the four-year-old daughter
of female suicide bomber Reem Riyashi singing to her dead mother and vowing
to follow in her footsteps. The video clip ends as the little girl picks up
sticks of explosives from her mother's drawer.

The Al Aqsa TV children's program shows a child actress playing the
daughter, watching Riyashi preparing the bomb and asking her mother, "Mommy,
what are you carrying in your arms instead of me? A toy or a present for
me?" She later sees a TV news story about her mother's suicide mission and
death, and realizes her mother had been carrying a bomb.

"Only now, I know what was more precious than us . . . " she sings of the
bomb.

Although she misses her mother, she vows to follow in her footsteps. The
video ends as she opens her mother's drawer and picks up the sticks of
explosives her mother had left there.


Background:

Reem Riyashi killed four Israelis and wounded seven at the Erez crossing
between Gaza and Israel in 2004. She gained the sympathy of the Israeli
soldiers at the checkpoint by telling them that she had a metal plate in her
leg that would trigger the metal detector. After she was taken to a room to
be searched privately, she detonated the bomb hidden under her clothes.

The following is the text of the song that Duha, Reem's daughter, sings to
her mother:
[Daughter sees mother preparing explosives sticks]
"Mommy, what are you carrying
in your arms instead of me?
[Mother turns to hide bomb]
A toy or a present for me?...
Mommy Reem!
Why did you put on your veil?
Are you going out, Mommy?...
Come back quickly, Mommy
I can't sleep without you,
unless you tell me and Ubaydah [her brother] a bedtime story.
[Daughter sees mother's picture and news story about bombing on PA TV]
My mother, my mother,
Me and Ubaydah are awake and waiting for you
to come to put us to sleep.
Me and Ubaydah, oh Mommy,
still need you to wipe our tears...
Instead of me you carried a bomb in your hands.
Only now, I know what was more precious than us...
May your steps be blessed,
and may you be flawless for Jerusalem.
Me and Ubaydah wish we were there with you.
[Images of her mother's grave and the graves of other terrorists,
including Aayat Al-Akhras, 17-year-old female suicide terrorist]
Send greetings to our Messenger [Muhammad] and tell him:
'Duha loves you.'
My love will not be [merely] words.
I am following Mommy in her steps.
[Finds explosives that mother left in her drawer,
picks up stick of explosives]
Oh Mommy, oh Mommy."
