Hamas using children in combat support roles

by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook, Jan. 13, 2009

A child in Gaza describes how he and other children are being used in combat support roles for Hamas fighters. According to the Palestinian child, children are being used as scouts to follow Israeli movements, and as couriers to supply ammunition and deliver information to the Hamas fighters.

The following is the description of the children's combat support roles, quoted in an Israeli Arab weekly:

"[The newspaper] Kul Al-Arab called many Gaza Strip residents, to comprehend the situation of the people who are suffering for two weeks from the wild Israeli aggression...

Khaled, from A-Rimal [in Gaza], said: 'We the children, in small groups and in civilian clothes, are fulfilling missions of support for the [Hamas] Resistance fighters, by transmitting messages about the movements of the enemy forces, or by bringing them ammunition and food. We ourselves are not aware of the movements of the Resistance fighters. We see them in one place, they suddenly disappear, and then reappear somewhere else. They are like ghosts, it is very hard to find them or hurt them.'"

Well I don't see how that would help Hamas, because we have heard from Abu, how the IDF use Palestinian kids for target practice, and shoot them for fun.

Also, it is unlikely that Hamas would ever allow children to be put in situations which may endanger them.

Quick, get my shotgun, there goes another flying pig.

Piggy banks 'offend UK Muslims'

October 24, 2005 - 6:44PM

British banks are banning piggy banks because they may offend some Muslims.

Halifax and NatWest banks have led the move to scrap the time-honoured symbol of saving from being given to children or used in their advertising, the Daily Express/Daily Star group reports here.

Muslims do not eat pork, as Islamic culture deems the pig to be an impure animal.

Salim Mulla, secretary of the Lancashire Council of Mosques, backed the bank move.

"This is a sensitive issue and I think the banks are simply being courteous to their customers," he said.

However, the move brought accusations of political correctness gone mad from critics.

"The next thing we will be banning Christmas trees and cribs and the logical result of that process is a bland uniformity," the Dean of Blackburn, Reverend Christopher Armstrong, said.

"We should learn to celebrate our difference, not be fearful of them."

Khalid Mahmoud, the Labour MP for a Birmingham seat and one of four Muslim MPs in Britain, also criticised the piggy-bank ban.

"We live in a multicultural society and the traditions and symbols of one community should not be obliterated just to accommodate another," Mr Mahmoud said.

"I doubt many Muslims would be seriously offended by piggy banks."

;D That's unbelieveable that anybody could associate a religion with "scholars" like that Saudi freak.

Imagine how many more innocent lives are going to be lost if Islam extremism is left to fester.
We should be greatful that the Jews are doing some of the dirty work.

Well the good news from that story is that at least one muslim, Mr Khalid Mahmoud, had the integrity to say the right thing.

Now, if he can just teach a billion or so more that attitude, we will have a good start.

Calanen,

I've just spent a bit of time scouring the website of Kul al-Arab, and I couldn't find any mention of this story. Can you bring a link to the original supposed story. The link you provide is just a link to an anti-Palestinian website in Israel.

That's probably because it was 6 days ago.

The articles there go back further than that.

Again, please provide a link to the original supposed article.

This is a propaganda piece from a well known Religion of Peace ™  poster on Youtube, who Youtube never bans showing its pro-jihadi bias.

That to one side, have a look at 1.20 in this video. Hamas fighters are hiding against a wall out of the way of a helicopter. A kid about 10 is out in the street in the open being the spotter to tell them where the helicopter is so they can shoot at it when they jump from cover, which they do.

It's a win win for them. If the Israelis dont shoot the kid, they can spot the chopper and shoot at it. If the Israelis do shoot the kid, then its a 'war crime' against an 'innocent civilian'.

HAMAS uses kids in combat support roles.
That is very sad that they count their own kids as dispensable.
