Wife of Hamas Politician Says Woman’s Role Is to Instill Love of Jihad and Martyrdom in Her Children
The Blaze ^ | 1/8/13 | Sharona Schwartz

A Palestinian woman named Umm Osama, the wife of Hamas Member of Parliament Khalil Al-Hayya, says in a television interview that a woman’s role is to instill a love of jihad and martyrdom in her children.

Women play their role and are not inferior to men. When a man goes to wage Jihad, his wife does not say “Don’t go” or try to stop him. She encourages and supports him. She is the one who prepares his equipment, bids him farewell, and welcomes [his Jihad].

She instills in her children the love of Jihad and martyrdom for the sake of Allah. If every mother were to prevent her son from waging Jihad for the sake of Allah, who would wage Jihad? Who would support Palestine? Palestine is dear to us, and its price is paid with our body remains and our lifeblood.

Is not Allah’s reward precious? Allah’s reward is Paradise. Paradise requires from us our blood, our body remains, and our efforts for its sake.[...]

Sister, Jihad is ordained for us. It is our duty to wage Jihad, because either we wage Jihad or…

Interviewer: We want to die as martyrs.

Umm Osama: Indeed we do. I am constantly praying: “Allah, make the end of our days be in martyrdom.” I pray for this even for my husband and my children. None of us want to die in our beds. We pray that Allah will grant

Funny enough, I wouldn’t complain if more American mothers instilled of love of freedom and independence in their children!

This why “collateral damage” when shooting at Moslems is a GOOD thing.

It’s really sad to read this. Those poor children, brainwashed by the cult of death, will live their lives full of hate and rage. Oh that she would urge others to show their children the love of Jesus.

We need a lot of that in America, too.

It is an old Arab custom for (some) parents to go by the name of a child they are proud of. Thus, “Abu Ali” or “Umm Osama” “abu” = “father of ...”. “umm” = “mother of ...”.

“Osama” is her son’s name......
