Red Cross Harbors Terrorist
Israel National News (Arutz 7) ^ | Mar. 27, 2003

Posted on 03/27/2003 11:26:30 AM PST by Alouette

Two International Red Cross workers attempted to prevent the IDF from arresting a senior Islamic Jihad terrorist today. An IDF Egoz unit entered the Red Cross building in Jenin today, arrested the terrorist's accomplice, and found two Kalachnikov rifles at the site. When the soldiers asked to enter the offices, the two female workers - from the U.S. and Britain - would not allow them to do so, saying no one was inside. The Israelis insisted on entering, and found the terrorist, Shadi Sukiya, armed with a pistol. They arrested him without incident. Sukiya has long been wanted for his involvement in a series of murderous attacks against Jews.

There have been other incidents in which the PA Arabs took advantage of the Red Cross' status to further terrorist goals. In January 2002, for instance, the IDF captured a wanted terrorist who was taking advantage of the relatively free passage granted to PA ambulances. He was disguised as a doctor, but alert soldiers at a roadblock near Brachah, just southwest of Shechem, detected and arrested him.

I don't give any money to the Red Cross, not a cent. Only the Salvation Army.

And the Red Cross is upset because we won't tell them where our POW camps are in Iraq. No way!

Ya know, I just went and read the mission statements and charters for the Red Cross and The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and nowhere did I see anything about the safekeeping of criminals. Maybe it's in an addendum. </SARCASM>

In these here parts, those Red Cross workers would've been arrested and charged with Obstruction of Justice.

Like my father and my uncles who served in the military, I despise the American Red Cross.

Immediately after 9/11 our Bishop conducted a special fund raising plea supposedly to help the victims of 911. We were asked to write a check to the Red Cross designating our Church and the bishop.

I refused to write a check and my wife wrote one. Later she sat and watch the corruption unfold on the Factor. Now she refuses to do anything for the Red Cross.

Nothing this pro communist, Pro Islamofacist and anti Israel and American organization does would surprise me.

The Salvation Army does the right thing with its donations.

That happened to my Dad in WWI and his best friends. Then it happened to my uncles in WWII. Then it happened to my cousins in Korea. Then it happened to me on a dock waiting during the Cuban Crisis. You think that these stories are urban legends until it happens to you.

I do not give the Red Cross one cent either, for my grandfather told me not to, but I would give the Red Cross the benefit of a doubt about this, for they were probably under threat, and they may not have been willingly hiding terrorists.

Good question. Here's another

From the article: " An IDF Egoz unit entered the Red Cross building in Jenin today, arrested the terrorist's accomplice, and found two Kalachnikov rifles at the site."

Does the Red Cross have any guideline on firearms or do they allow anyone to hang out with loaded rifles? I would have thought one would have to be a military member, state or local police force member to be allowed access to a Red Cross facility while carrying firearms.

Thats the same question I had. Its simply amazing to me that armed terrorists were in the building being shielded by the ARC people.

In another context it still doesnt make sense:

In Cleveland, Usama Bin Laden was apprehended in teh ARC buiding today armed with an AK-47, a two pistols. Red Cross workers shielded him from the police until they entered the building and arested him.

The ARC is a worthless, outdated piece of crap. Lets kill it and find another place to support that does a good job!

Oh geez...you really hit a nerve there.

As a veteran,I remember the Red Cross promising everything to everyone in the service, and then giving them nothing. of course, we were all basically forced to contribute to them via the United Way, and it really annoyed us to no end.

Completely worthless organization that only exists to blow its own horn and do nothing but stuff an office.

Just got this in my email from rumguy30 @ aol.com:

You ask "Why do we even allow them (the red cross) to exist anymore?" I ask you this - who the fuck do you think you are? It's not up to you, and the rest of you phony flag-suckers to determine which organizations can exist and which can't. So I suggest to you, either grow up, or leave this country.

Nice to see some people dont have the guts to say thier crap in person.

The United Way is an umbrella organization that takes contributions and distributes them to other organizations. A lot go to the red cross.

We have decided that you will remain a low-income wage earner for the rest of your life.

There is nothing you can do about it.

Hey Israel, return those leftists Red Cross women to their place of origin--not that the US would want either returned. However, to harbor terrorists isn't suppose to be the International Red Cross' original plan. However, considering that the International Red Cross refuses to permit Israel as a member, Israel needs to kick them out on their collective behinds.

They must've liked his lice and rugged goat-like smell.

I'm not surprised either.
And lo-and-behold, there really was gee golly a terrorist inside the offices.
Defund, disband, and prosecute the Red Cross as a terorist org?
Sounds like a plan to me.

The Red Cross, the UN, the ICC -- corrupt, leftist fronts, one and all.

At least we can be thankful that they've all been flushed out of their respective rat-holes for what they are in recent months.

This International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies excludes their Jewish counterpart, The Mogen Dovid. This International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent is not necessarily allied with other organizations that call themselves Red Cross. It's confusing.

I won't give a dime to an organization that's in league with Islamics and excludes Jews. Screw 'em!

The same but different. The Red Cross generally acts as the Red Crescent in Muslim countries. My point is I'm not certain the Red Cross would harbor militant Muslim criminals, but it would make perfect sense that the Crescent does.
