Gazans hear of attack, hand out sweets

Strip's residents treated to flowers, candy following news of Dimona bombing. Hamas members: Palestinian organizations can still strike back at Israel in spite of war waged against them

Ali Waked Published: 02.04.08, 15:23 / Israel News

As word of the suicide bombing in Dimona spread Monday, Gaza residents were treated to celebratory wreaths of flowers as well as sweets that were handed to drivers and passers-by.

Gaza motorists receiving the treats and sweets also honked their horns in triumph and celebration.

The "party" was somewhat marred when word spread that Abu Sa'ad, a senior member and spokesman for the Salah al-Din Brigades, the Popular Resistance Committees' military wing, was killed in an IDF attack in the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Lahiya.

A Hamas member told Ynet that the joy in Gaza is heightened by the fact that these attacks were carried out in spite of the siege on Gaza and the stringent security measures imposed by Israel. “The Palestinian organizations can strike back against Israel in spite of the war waged against them,” he said.

The two Dimona bombers were Gaza residents, sources in the Strip told Ynet. Furthermore, several Palestinian organizations have claimed responsibility for the suicide bombing.

One of the bombers was identified as Mussa Arafat, a Khan Younis residents from the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The second bomber is Lavway Lavwany, an activist in the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, Fatah’s military wing.

The al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, Fatah's military wing, the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, and the United Resistance Brigades have claimed responsibility for Monday's terror attack in Dimona, Hizbullah's television station al-Manar reported.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the suicide bombing in Dimona Monday, as well as an earlier military raid by Israel in the West Bank.

"The Palestinian Authority expresses its full condemnation of the Israeli military operation this dawn in (the Palestinian village of) Qabatia just as it condemns the operation that took place today in Dimona," a statement from Abbas's office said.

The Palestinian Authority thus reinforced its longstanding stance objecting to all attacks on innocent civilians, be they Palestinian or Israeli.

Sometimes I get the sense that there will be no peace in that area until Gaza and all other Palestinian territories are bulldozed and made into parking lots.

I continue to be amazed at Israel’s restraint in the face of such savagery.

These people are pigs. No more US dollars, or diplomats, or offers, should go into this cesspool until Israel has cleaned up the mess.

Ultimately, the blame comes to rest squarely on the shoulders of Islam...the seventh century cult built by a false prophet on the blood of the ‘infidels’ who refused to be converted or enslaved.
The bloodshed for Islam that has gone on since the seventh century continues yet today. Muslim youth are brainwashed in their madrassas to believe that living, literally, by the words of the quran, engaging in jihad against the infidel, and dying in the name of their pedophile prophet is the only way to paradise. There is no room for discussion, no ‘degrees’ of Islam.
There are Islamofascists, and all others. No in between.

Islam offers three choices to the kafir: Convert, be enslaved, or be killed. Not much choice there.

Lock and Load.

When Israel finally gets a true Israeli as P.M. and goes after these barbarians, I may just hold a party myself!

I remember the same news on 9/11.

What's going to be the next headline?: "Gazans protest that Israeli fence prevents them from getting candy to celebrate Israeli deaths."

They have the Koranic sickness called Jihad and conquest. That the whole world belongs to Muslims. That you are squatting on Allah’s land

The non Muslim must always live under Muslim rule and live worse than the Muslim

How can Israel clean up the mess? Nobody else has to put up with what Israel does, and it definitely requires the patience of Job and the wisdom of Solomon. The world's longest on-going hypocrisy act has to be that all of the Palestinians' ethnic and co-religious brethren despise them for good reasons, and yet Israel is expected to find a way to put up with them. And of course, that's the only reason for the Palestinians, to bedevil Israel when the Arabic countries countries can't beat the IDF in a war.
