Hamas calls for Genocide of Jews

2007-04-13T00:24:00.000-07:00

The Hamas spokesman, Dr. Ismail Radwan, PA TV, March 30, 2007
-The Hour [Resurrection] will not take place until the Muslims fight the Jews and the Muslims kill them, and the rock and the tree will say: "Oh, Muslim, servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, kill him!"We must remind our Arab and Muslim nation, its leaders and people, its scholars and students, remind them that Palestine and the Al Aqsa mosque will not be liberated through summits nor by international resolutions, but it will be liberated through the rifle. It will not be liberated through negotiations, but through the rifle, since this occupation knows no language but the language of force. O Allah, strengthen Islam and Muslims, and bring victory to your Jihad-fighting worshipers, in Palestine and everywhere. Allah take the oppressor Jews and Americans and their supporters!

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The first Muslim congressman, Keith Ellison, is from Minnesota. It should not be forgotten that he addressed a banquet held by the Council on American Islamic Relations CAIR, which is deeply involved with the suit against the airline and passengers, two days before the Flying Imams were bounced from their flight, and met with Omar Shahin, the leader of the Flying Imams, the day before.

Suicide Bombing? Military Strategy?

2007-03-30T17:33:00.000-07:00

Answer Please....The Question;

What is it?

Hamas seems to be a stumbling block to to "Muslim Bridges" http://www.muslimbridges.org/.

I read "Suicide Bombing" in their web site..
section called " Addressing Islamophobia"
I asked them if they were in agreement with Hamas...as to killing all the population of Israel,
After going around in circles, they refused to answer my question and
Their final reply to me was ...
"Peace"

Here is their article;

"Suicide Bombing"

http://www.muslimbridges.org/content/view/442/

Suicide is forbidden in Islam so the concept of "suicide bombing" is fundamentally unacceptable in Islam.
The intention behind suicide is to escape the problems of this life. Life has become so burdensome for them, they decide to end their lives.

Those who strap bombs around themselves in order to kill as many of the enemy soldiers as possible are not tired of life.

This is a form of military strategy.

The Hamas Movement resorts to this method of attack because they do not have the military strength to confront the enemy on the battlefield.
In terms of civilian deaths in Israel, those involved in the struggle there argue that the whole population undergoes military training and most carry arms, particularly the settlers in the occupied territories

Consequently, the population at large are

not considered civilians, but military reserves.

They also argue that their military operations are not directed at civilians.
Targeting innocent civilians, whether by military operations, "intentional" or "collateral damage" such as combat airplanes dropping bombs in residential areas, suicide bombing, or any other form of war resulting in the killing of innocent civilians, is absolutely prohibited under any circumstances.

After reading it , I wanted to be clear on

how they felt about

this so called
"Military strategy" of Hamas.

The whole population undergoes military training.
That makes all "military reserves"..so suicide bombing is a form of
military strategy .thus ok. to blow up babies? children? The whole
population?
Is this a fatwa against terrorism....or is it condoning it?
Please be clear..
Do you condemn Hamas for this "Military strategy" ?

Assalamu alikum (Peace be upon you) Br. Bob,
Thank you very much for taking the time and visiting Muslim
Bridges. We appreciate your message.
Regarding the topic of "suicide bombing", there is clear reference in
the last paragraph of the articles, as to the position of Islam on this
subject. Here is another short article titled "Notes on Islamic Jihad",
that you may find very interesting : http://www.muslimbridges.org/content/view/548/

Muslim Bridges is not a political site. Our goal is to build bridges
of understanding. President Carter has recently published a book
"Palestine, Peace not Apartheid", offering a sensible solution that could
bring peace to the entire M.East, and positively impact the entire
world. Here is a link for the book review, and a free book offer :
http://www.muslimbridges.org/content/view/42/35/
Here is one more article titled "Waiting for Jesus", reflecting our
common hopes for peace and prosperity, love of God, and mutual respect of
Jesus (Peace be upon him):

Thank you again. We hope to hear from you soon.

Muslim Bridges does not have to be a political site to

answer my question .
I am asking it because;
When reading the topic "suicide bombings" the main subject was Hamas's
"Military strategy".
If this is a fatwa against terrorism, and you used Hamas as an
example, why would you not state if you agree or disagree with them.?

Do you condemn Hamas for this "Military strategy" ?

as they claim it
to be.

I understand that..""targeting *innocent civilians* is prohibited
under any circumstances"..In Islam.....

Please understand what ..I am asking ......

..The "military strategy" of Hamas.. is as follows... The military
reserves are *"the whole population of Israel",*
The population of Israel at large are not considered civilian,
*So therefore ...to strap a bomb around oneself and to
*kill this population , *is a justified military strategy* of war *because
Hamas does not have the military strenght to confront the enemy on the
battlefield, and

Israel has no civilians.

*ok.. I got that ...But please tell me..*

Does Hamas have approval in Islam, to use this form of "Military
Strategy?.

Do you agree, with Hamas that it is a justified act, during war time ,
to strap a bomb around oneself, and blow up,

killing *non civilians , military reserves,
who, in this case are the whole of the population of Israel...?.??.

Your article " Suicide Bombings" explains the difference between Suicide
and Mililary Strategy, .

I never knew the difference, or that there was a difference..

thanks for the explanation.... but you have to understand...

This following statement means *NOTHING....*

Targeting innocent civilians, whether by military operations,
"intentional" or "collateral damage" such as combat airplanes dropping bombs
in residential areas, suicide bombing, or any other form of war resulting in
the killing of innocent civilians, is absolutely prohibited under any
circumstances.
Is just alot of *blah blah blah ...*if you don't define who are
*" innocent civilians"....*get what i'm saying?*

so......

Please ...
What do you say ... The population of Israel...
Are they " innocent civilians"...or
Are they "
military reserves" ..*
you said ......."Unlike bias media - always taking the one side, this
statement applies to all."
applies to all Do you mean All=-*innocent civilians*-.

Is there any reason you are only interested in the innocent civilians in
Israel and not the innocent civilians of Palestine. Aren't both the same
and both deserve the same ruling, the same human rights, and the right to
live in dignity? Do you not find Jimmy Carter's views and proposals to be
valid and positive for the sake of peace for all the people in the M.East?
The challenge we often see Br. Bob is the media only speaks of the victims
in Israel. This is wrong. There are innocent victims on both sides. Here
is a video clip that you may find interesting (the second segment of the
clip): http://www.muslimbridges.org/content/view/604/

We suggested a number of links in our earlier messages to give you

WoW...You still have not answered me?
Please understand..

I never knew Hamas believed the population of Israel was military,
and not civilian, and that is what makes the
difference between suicide bombers
and the" Mililary Strategy of Hamas".
Why did you ask me .... "Is there any reason you are only interested in
the innocent civilians in
Israel and not the innocent civilians of Palestine." ?

I never said .. I do not care about the innocent civilians of Palestine.

That question has nothing to do with my questions....

Israel has not said; the innocent civilians of Palestine are non
civilians , they are military reserves.

Hamas did make that claim..You used it in your article " Suicide Bombings"
to explain the

difference between suicide and the military strategy of Hamas. .
That is why I would like to know

Is this an accepted "Military Strategy" in Islam? and..

Do you agree with it?

The questions are very clear, and I believe worthy of answers.

Will you answer them for me please.?

Thank you,

exchange desired.

We are encouraged not to exchange in arguments and simply say "Peace"

It appears there is a misunderstanding.

No ... I get it.The position of most, if not all Islamic organizations is ..

.Do not target civilians-

except for the Jews in Israel because they are not civilians.

Do not commit suicide-

except for the military operation of human bombs.

You think that....as long as you go on with love, mercy, and cooperation , and not getting to the truth ..just going in circles..and keep saying things like.."WE hope to move beyond the point of tolerance and understanding, to mutual respect, acceptance, and embracing each other as human beings, and believers.

"You don't have to commit to a answer...and you know what? ...you don't..

But by not answering ... Are you saying...

You believe that all the Jews in Israel are military reserves and killing them by sending in a human bomb is just warfare.

Today is March 30, 2007 and still no answer to my questions....

Why ?

Will Muslim Bridges answer this question?

Killing all the Jews in Israel....Is genocide ?

Yes or No
