Hamas TV Extolls Female Palestinian Suicide Bombers and Jihad Fighters: Jihad-Fighting Mothers Urge Their Sons to Seek Martyrdom

The Palestinian woman has not been absent from the fronts of Jihad, from the battle for regaining the homeland. This is the Palestinian fighter Afaf Ubeid, who has brought great courage to the struggle. She has her eyes set on a single target – the liberation of her homeland from the fifth of the occupation. The fighter Afaf, who has not been blessed by Allah with sons, whom she could sacrifice for the homeland, has decided to take their place.
Afaf Ubeid: I waged Jihad myself because there was no one to do so on my behalf. Every Palestinian woman wants to wage Jihad.
Reporter: This demonstrates the image of the Palestinian woman, who is capable of undergoing the toughest of battles, while living in the harshest conditions, in order to preserve her identity as a fighter. As the saying goes, hardship measures the essence of men – and, if I may say so, of women too –especially if the hardship plagues the homeland of Palestine. Afaf Ubeid: I cannot have enough of the struggle. A true fighter cannot leave the struggle even after 100 years, even if she is confined to a wheelchair.
A woman may sit up all night to embroider, so she can raise her children, and when they have become young men, she sacrifices them as martyrs for the sake of Palestine. Source .
