Hamas video: we will drink the blood of the Jews

Palestinian Media Watch Bulletin, February 14, 2006.

The Hamas website this week presented the parting video messages of two
Hamas suicide terrorists. One message was for Jews, whose blood Hamas
promises to drink until Jews “leave the Muslim countries,” and the second to a
mother, as she helps dress her son for battle prior to his suicide terror mission.

Each terrorist had a separate message for Jews. This first said:

“My message to the loathed Jews is that there is no god but Allah, we will
chase you everywhere! We are a nation that drinks blood, and we know that
there is no blood better than the blood of Jews. We will not leave you alone
until we have quenched our thirst with your blood, and our children’s thirst with
your blood. We will not leave until you leave the Muslim countries.”

The second terrorist said the following:

“In the name of Allah, we will destroy you, blow you up, take revenge against
you, purify the land of you, pigs that have defiled our country… This
operation is revenge against the sons of monkeys and pigs.”

One of the terrorists saw his death as a wedding with the Maidens of Paradise:

“I dedicate this wedding to all of those who have chosen
Allah as their goal, the Quran as their constitution and the Prophet
as their role model. Jihad is the only way to liberate Palestine – all of Palestine –
from the impurity of the Jews.”

The message to one of the terrorist’s mother was instruction for her to be
joyous over his death and his “wedding” with the “Maidens of Paradise.”

“My dear mother, you who have cared for me, today I sacrifice my life to be
your intercessor . O my love and soul, wipe your tears, don’t
be saddened. In the name of Allah, I’ve achieve all that I’ve aspired. Don’t let
me see you sad on my wedding day with the Maidens of Paradise. So be happy
and not sad, because in the name of Allah, after death is merciful Allah’s
paradise.”

Included in the clip is the farewell scene between the mother and terrorist son
while she helps him don his military vest. In the background one can hear the
lyrics, “My dear mother, don’t cry over us.”

Such words are eerily familiar to a music video that ran on Palestinian Authority
Television for years, in which a boy asks his parents to be happy over his
sought after death. Two lines from the music video ran,

“My beloved, my mother, dearest to me most Be joyous over my blood and do
not cry for me”

Palestinian Media Watch has noted that on numerous occasions, the final
messages of Palestinians that went on suicide missions reflected the messages
they had been hearing in the Palestinian Authority media.

After filming their goodbyes, the two Hamas suicide terrorists went to the Karni
Crossing and killed an Israeli soldier. The clip includes scenes of preparation of
a tunnel, and hiding explosives in the tunnel.

Hamas placed the video on its website in February 2006 – after the Palestinian
parliamentary elections. The terrorist act glorified in the video occurred over a
year ago, on December 7, 2004.

The full transcript of the Hamas video

“In the name of Allah, we will destroy you, blow you up, take revenge against
you, purify the land of you, pigs that have defiled our country… This operation
is revenge against the sons of monkeys and pigs.”

“My dear mother, don’t cry over us.

We have to seek, my mother, the help of Allah.

My dear mother, don’t cry over us.

We have to seek, my mother, the help of Allah.”
