But remember: the real problem is “Islamophobia.” “Gaza kindergartners want to ‘blow up Zionists,’” by Elior Levy for Ynet News, June 12 (thanks to Lachlan): Children attending a kindergarten in Gaza that is run by Islamic Jihad celebrated their graduation by dressing up in army attire, […]
Islamic Jihad celebrates jihad attack that murdered eight civilians as a “great achievement”
Glorying in blood and death. As one jihadist put it, “We love death. You love your life!” And another: “The Americans love Pepsi-Cola, we love death.” — Afghan jihadist Maulana Inyadullah Of course, this idea comes from the Qur’an itself: “Say (O Muhammad): O ye who are Jews! If ye claim that ye are favoured […]
Hamas, Islamic Jihad discuss merger
This ought to complicate Hamas’ attempts to reconcile with Fatah, though, as this report notes, it could also conceivably result in an even more virulent jihadist conglomerate with which Israel would be expected to negotiate. “Hamas, Islamic Jihad debate joining forces,” from Agence France-Presse, January 18: Hamas and Islamic Jihad, the two main Palestinian Islamist […]
Shocker: Islamic Jihad doesn’t expect “truce” with Israel to last
The hudna is never intended to last. It is a tool to attempt to give control to the jihadists over when hostilities begin and end, so that fighting occurs when the jihadists like their odds of succeeding.

That was quick: Jihadist groups discussing return to ceasefire with Israel
It was only Friday that Hamas declared the truce was off. As the Israeli response has escalated, and they may face actual consequences for the latest bombardment of southern Israel with rocket fire, they’ve changed their minds.

Israel: Longer-range Grad rockets being launched from Gaza
This escalation continues the trend of increasing rocket launches recorded last month. It also reflects the feverish pace at which Hamas and other jihad groups in Gaza have been stockpiling weapons, taking advantage of the relative calm as Islamic law intends it: an opportunity for the jihadists to regroup and re-arm for the next round.
