Fatah strijders kopen liever wapens dan eten voor hun kinderen?

 

Wapens zijn natuurlijk belangrijker dan voldoende voedsel voor de kinderen. Als van Israelische soldaten of van kolonisten bekend zou worden dat zij hun kinderen voedsel onthouden om wapens te kopen zou dat de media wel halen, en zagen we weer hopen verontwaardigde artikelen en reacties van Israel bashers op internet, maar nu is het stil. Men vind het blijkbaar niet van belang dat de Palestijnse kinderen van deze strijders geen eten krijgen. Als het voor de strijd tegen Israel is, is blijkbaar alles geoorloofd, en is het welzijn en van een Palestijn niet zoveel waard.

Fatah fighters buying guns
instead of food for kids,
preparing for war with Israel
by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook

Members of Fatah's Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades are arming themselves for war against Israel by buying guns instead of food for their kids and by selling their wives' jewelry, according to the official Fatah website.

The website says that the Brigades, the so-called "military wing" of Fatah, are preparing a "harsh and painful" response to any Israeli attacks on Gaza. According to one of the heads of the Brigades, the fighters have to buy their own weapons to replace weapons confiscated by Hamas.
 
Following is the transcript of the item from the Fatah web site:
 

"With the renewal of the threats emanating from the Zionist military establishment to carry out a new attack on the Gaza Strip... the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades... warned of a harsh and painful response that the occupation state is not expecting. This response was conveyed by one of the heads of the Brigades in the Gaza Strip, Abu Ahed...

 

"Abu Ahed also declared that the Brigades' activity in Gaza should be viewed as a personal endeavor, since many of the Brigades' Jihad (Islamic War) fighters purchase weapons rather than food for their children, and many of them have even sold their wives' gold [jewelry] in order to obtain weapons, since the Hamas forces have confiscated the Brigades' members' weapons."
