Israel Foreign Ministry, May 18, 2001

  1. Suicide bombings today constitute the preferred means of
    Islamic terrorist organizations in their struggle against Israel.
    The perpetrators of these attacks receive encouragement from the
    well oiled incitement machines of religious officials, on the one
    hand, and from political leaders in the Arab world and the leaders
    of the terrorist organizations, on the other, who derive their
    inspiration from Islamic sources.

  2. The incitement to continued terrorist attacks is carried out
    through a number of channels, such as through public pronouncements
    and calls from religious figures and leaders, and through propaganda
    which penetrates Palestinian society, via the media and the
    education system. The propaganda has a double aim: there is the
    effort to recruit additional volunteers for suicide missions and the
    attempt to establish support and public backing for the suicide
    bombers and their families, among the Palestinians and in the Arab
    world, in general.

  3. There follows a number of examples from recent months:
    1. Youssef Jamah, Palestinian Minister of Holy Sites, in an
      interview on Egyptian Television (April 29), stated:

      “The suicide bombings are a legitimate means through which the
      Palestinians fight the enemy. Their aim is to serve Allah, and
      through them, they fight for Allah and for the Islamic faith and
      homeland. The attacks are the command of Allah.”

    2. Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of the
      Hizbullah (Radio Nur, March 31):

      He called on the Palestinians to sacrifice more people, and to
      carry out Jihad missions, for “they embody the salvation from the
      occupiers of the pure and holy land, the accomplishment of freedom
      and the return of the dispersed Palestinians to their homeland.
      The Zionist entity is a cancerous entity and, therefore, there is
      no room for compromise with it.”

    3. Khalad Mashal, Hamas (Reuters, February 16):
      “You have no place here, on the holy land of Palestine… You
      will never have security in this place, not even on a single
      centimeter of this land. This is a call for every Palestinian to
      turn into a time bomb – to fight them with every means at your
      disposal.”
      (Al Quds Radio, February 17):
      “Kill them! Allah will answer them through your means! I hope
      that there are those among you who will kill and be killed!”

    4. Dr. Mahmud Alzahar, a Hamas spokesman (on Internet Site
      “Albouaba”, April 23):

      “The sacrificial acts to sanctify Allah’s name are designed to
      attack the personal security of the Israelis. We are not referring
      to negotiations, but to an occupation that is harming personal
      security and that is destroying the Zionist society.”

    5. Sheikh Youssuf Kardawi (Aljazira, April 11):
      In response to a question regarding attacks against civilians:
      “Israeli society is a military society, and every person is
      either a soldier in the Israeli Army or a reserve soldier. This
      society must be intimidated, until they return to the countries
      from which they came. When they feel afraid and fearful, they will
      not feel secure in the country, and we must intimidate and
      frighten them.”
      (Albayan – Internet, May 12):
      “I believe that the Palestinian Jihad fighter who carries out
      suicide actions in Israel does not think about the murder of
      children and women, but rather goes to fight against Israel, its
      army and its forces. The suicide mission is the loftiest form of
      Jihad. We are talking about an heroic act of sacrifice and
      sanctification. The person who redeems his soul for Allah,
      sacrifices himself as a sacrifice for his religion and people, and
      fights the enemies of Allah with new weapons that fate awarded to
      the downtrodden, in order to fight with these means against the
      tyranny of the arrogant.”

    6. The Palestinian Council of Religious Leaders publicized a
      Fatwa (Al Iyyam, May 6), determining that

      “these acts of sacrifice are legitimate, and their legitimacy is
      derived from the Koran and Islamic law.”

    7. Khamad Almadavi, a preacher at the Al Aqsa Mosque, and the
      Chairman of the Islamic Appeals Court in Jerusalem (in an
      interview to a radio station in London)
      :

      “the suicide attacks
      are commanded by the Koran and the command applies to every Muslim.”

    8. Sheikh Ahmad Yassin (Egyptian Television, April 29):
      “The fighters for Allah kill and get killed. Can there be
      bravery which is superior to that shown by a person who sacrifices
      himself for his homeland, in order to sow fear, defeatism, death,
      division and destruction amongst enemy ranks.”

    9. Faez Kandil, Radio commentator, Damascus, February 19):
      “Israel has many weapons, but the Palestinian people also have
      a large number of weapons and they are: The weapon of sacrifice to
      sanctify Allah’s name. This is a noble Arab weapon which renews
      itself in the same way as the sun shines every morning. The second
      weapon is the explosive material of the Fedayeen, and the third
      weapon is the geographical proximity, enabling the Palestinian
      resistance to strike at every place they wish. The towns of
      Netanya and Hadera are close to Tulkarem and Kalkilya, in the same
      way that Maaleh Adumim is close to Ramallah.”

    10. Sheikh Alshaibi, Head of the Faculty of Religious Studies,
      University Bin Saud (Alhayat, April 30):

      “The suicide missions are a legitimate act, and are included
      within the framework of the Jihad in accordance with Allah, if the
      intention of the person perpetrating it is pure. These actions are
      one of the most effective means of the Jihad. One of the most
      effective means against the enemies of the faith is to bring about
      disasters and attacks in their midst… in other words, to cause
      killing and mutilation, and to sow panic in their midst. These
      actions strengthen the Muslims and their spirit, and breaks the
      morale of the enemies.”
  4. In the context of the propaganda, “broadcasting services” are
    broadcast to Palestinian children, in which the boy Mohammed A-Dura,
    the “martyr” , calls out to his friends from paradise, and asks them
    to follow his path and join the fighters.
    The chairperson of the Hizbullah Womens’ Movement is quoted on Al
    Jezira Television (December 13, 2000):

    “I will push my child to
    participate in the resistance, and I pray to Allah that my son ends
    his life as a Shaheed (martyr).”
    Another member of the organization
    is also quoted:

    “I began to take action within the framework of the
    American University in Beirut, and to explain the priorities of the
    Shaheed children – in the same way that we are educated to become
    doctors, they are educated to die like their fathers.”

  5. There are a few religious figures who reject the religious
    legitimacy of suicide attacks. For instance, Mufti Alsheikh of Saudi
    Arabia maintained that suicide attacks have no basis in Islamic law.

    In Egypt, Sheikh Alzahar maintained that “if a person blows himself
    up between people who are fighting him, he is a Shaheed, but if he
    blows himself up between young children, women or the elderly that
    take no part in the fighting, he is not a Shaheed.”

    Nevertheless, most of the religious figures responding rejected the ruling of
    Mufti Alsheikh of Saudi Arabia, and claimed that his ruling was
    incorrect and was intended only to serve political ends.
