Video - Hamas is Stealing Funds Intended for Gaza’s Needy from the Turkish Agency TIKA.(Cogat)
Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, Major General Yoav (Poly) Mordechai: "The egotistical Hamas terror organization has robbed funds that are meant for the needy of Gaza from international organizations. Hamas prospers at the expense of the residents of the Strip and uses donations meant for them to finance terror. How long will the world and the Gazan people ignore this?"
A recent example is Muhammad Faruq Sha’aban Murtaja, a Gazan building engineer, who was planted in the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA) Murtaja is the latest in a long line of similar occurrences. World Vision, UNRWA and many other organizations have fell victims at the hands of Hamas’ infiltration and exploitation . The activities of these organizations have suffered, as their reputation has been tainted due to them being declared as facilitators of terrorism. These events have triggered diplomatic incidents between countries which finance these organizations and Israel. Ultimately, the primary victim is the Palestinian resident of Gaza whose access to food , shelter, education and a brighter future for their children is denied so that Hamas can continue its murderous terrorism.
From a Civil Engineer to a Terror Engineer
Approximately one month ago, Israeli forces arrested Muhammad Faruq Sha’aban Murtaja, a Gazan resident and civil engineer, who for the past several years served as the branch manager in the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA). Murtaja’s interrogation revealed how he exploited his seniority in the agency in order to aid Hamas’ terror activities at the expense of the Palestinian public in Gaza - without the knowledge of the Agency’s senior leadership and the Turkish government.
Murtaja was born in 1977, studied in Turkey and was recruited by Hamas in 2008. During 2009, he joined an engineering unit of Hamas’ military wing, while at the same time serving as deputy director of IHH in Gaza - an Islamic Turkish NGO, declared as a terrorist organization by several countries,which seeks to delegitimize the State of Israel.
Murtaja subsequently sought to infiltrate TIKA, an organization which provides humanitarian aid to Muslims across the world. In light of TIKA’s resources and his extensive past experience with Turkish organizations, Murtaja set forth to become involved in the organization. Hmmmm......As usual the IHH is involved.

Report: Israel to Build Underground Wall Around Gaza. (Matzav).
Israel’s defense establishment’s plan to build a concrete wall tens
of meters underground as well as above ground along the Gaza border was
revealed by Yediot Achronot this morning, Behind the News reports.
It has previously been estimated that such a project would cost tens
of billions of shekels. However, under the new plan the construction
costs are estimated to reach NIS 2.2 billion.
Behind the Newsreports that the wall will stretch along the 60 miles of the southern border around the Gaza Strip.
A senior Defense Ministry official on Thursday announced at a press
briefing that the next confrontation with Hamas would be the last one.
The question of how this announcement is consistent with a plan to build
a wall, which is essentially a defensive program, is open to
interpretation.
Video - Terror Show at a Gaza Kindergarten Graduation Ceremony; 'Islamic Jihad Leader to Israelis: We Are Not Terrorists, Don’t Force Us to Kill You' (Memri).
A graduation ceremony at a Gaza kindergarten featured a theatrical
show of terrorist skills presented by the graduating children of the
2016 Al-Quds class of the Islamic Al-Hoda kindergarten. The children,
clad in Islamic Jihad fatigues, demonstrated the planting of anti-tank
mines, the killing and kidnapping of enemy soldiers, the launching of
mortars, and more. Videos documenting the event were posted on the
kindergarten’s YouTube account and Facebook page on May 30. Sheikh Khadr
Habib, an Islamic Jihad leader in Gaza, delivered a speech during the
ceremony, and said that the children send a “message of love” to the
world and that their message to the Israelis is: We are not terrorists,
don’t force us to kill you. The Al-Hoda kindergarten is located in the
Zaytun Quarter in Gaza, and is run by Maha Ashour.
Following are excerpts
Gazan teen-aged boy: now for the number you have long been
waiting for, the military training show, directed by brother Bilal Majed
Ashour. We salute his enormous effort.
[…]
Kindergarten students come on stage wearing Islamic Jihad military
uniforms and are handed mock up assault rifles. They perform a series
of military-like drills.
[…]
Kindergarten students dressed in commando uniform and gear stage

The children stage and an attack that kills the “Israeli sentry”.
Scenes filmed on a helmet held camera are incorporated in the clip of the on-stage performance.
The children enter what seems to be an “Israeli army base”
and stage an attack against it. They emerge from the base with an
“Israeli soldier” as prisoner.
[…]
Gazan teen-aged boy: Stab! Kill the occupier with stones and
knives. Use any available weapon. From the edge of fire, when the blood
calls to arms, the morning rises.
[…]
Allow me to welcome the great [Islamic Jihad] leader, Khodhr Habib.
[…]
Khodhr Habib.: The message of the children of Palestine
today is a message of love to the whole world. Indeed, the spokesman for
these children is saying today: "The love that we bear in our hearts is
enough to be distributed among all the people of Earth. However, it is
this Zionist enemy that kills the children, the women, and the elderly,
and is occupying the land. It is this enemy that forces us to bear arms,
and protect our mothers and fathers, our elderly, and the honor of our
womenfolk."
[…]
The message that these children send the Zionist enemy today is: "We
do not want to kill anyone. We are not terrorists or murderers. We do
not want to kill you. Get out of our land. Palestine has its owners. Do
not force us to kill you. Indeed, if you continue with your aggression,
with the plundering of our land, and with the defiling of our Jerusalem,
we shall bear arms. We shall be the soldiers of the future, God
willing.
Teen Stabbing attack terrorist hailed as hero by Toronto children at the Palestine House. (CIJnews).
The Toronto-based Palestine House has recently celebrated the 14th birthday of the Palestinian child terrorist Ahmed Manasrah and called for his immediate release from the Israeli jail.
The event was held on Friday, January 19, at the Palestine House offices in Mississauga, Ontario with the attendance of Chairman of the Palestine House, Fadlo Mechael, the Vice Chairman, Nazih Khataba, other board members, parents and children.
A birthday cake was baked in honour of Ahmad Manasrah and decorated with the following message written on it: “Happy Birthday. Freedom. Ahmad Manasrah, 13 years old boy, shot and caged by Israel.”
Children are seen holding colourful balloons and posters
that read in Arabic: “Palestine House Canada [flags of Palestine and
Canada], Free Ahmad Manasrah, Solidarity campaign with the child
prisoner.”
A little girl greeted Manasrah on his birthday by reading the following message in French and English:
“Hi everyone, I’m Maryam Muhanad. We are Canadians Palestinians children came today to celebrate the 14th birth of Palestinian prisoner hero
Ahamd Manasrah. We ask all the nations in the world for freedom to
Ahmad Manasrah. Free, Free Ahmad Manasrah. Free, Free Ahmad Manasrah.” To watch the video click here. To see more pictures of the event click here.
Armed with kitchen knives, Ahmaed Manasrah, 13, went on October 12, 2015 with his cousin Hassan Manasra, 15, to Jerusalem’s Pisgat Zeev neighborhoodto attack Jews.
The two Palestinian teenagers
stabbed two Israelis, a 13-year-old, who was critically injured; and a
25-year-old, who was moderately injured. Hassan Manasra was shot dead by
security forces after charging at police with a knife and Ahmaed Manasrah, was hit by a car, recovered after being treated in an Israeli hospital and is facing charges of attempted murder.
The Palestinian al-Quds Intifada, also dubbed the Knife Intifada, is supported and directed by the Palestinian leadership in Ramallah (the Palestinian Authority-PLO-Fatah) and Gaza (Hamas). Read the full story here.
Iranian-Backed Group “Al-Sabirin” members Arrested in Bethlehem. (Aawsat).
Ramallah- Palestinian security forces in the West Bank managed to abort an
attempt on establishing an infrastructure for the “Al-Sabirin [The Patient]
for the Victory of Palestine.”. The movement is present in Gaza and is known
for its direct affiliation with the Iranian regime.
Security sources told Asharq Al-Awsat that five activists affiliated with
the newly-founded movement in Bethlehem, located east of the West Bank, were
arrested. They had received funds from “Al-Sabirin” in Gaza, and are
presumed to harbor intentions of establishing movement units in the West
Bank.
Sources clarified that this is not the first time the Iranian government has
attempted to form armed factions in the West Bank. During the Second
Intifada, they tried to support militant factions via the Lebanese
Hezbollah, yet they failed.
“Al-Sabirin” is a movement that was launched in Gaza, over two years ago.
Hisham Salem, founder of the movement, is an ex-Islamic Jihad leader and one
of those who broke away from their factions to launch movements supported by
Iran.
It is believed that the arrested activists in Bethlehem belong to families
who had previously converted to Shi’itism. Moreover, Salem did not hide the
presence of “Al-Sabirin” agents in both the West Bank and Jerusalem.
Salem said that he had received full-on support from the Iranian government,
just the way Hezbollah did. Salem clarified that his movement is not a Shi’ite
one; however Palestinians, especially in Gaza, found his declaration hard to
believe.
Sources also told Asharq Al-Awsat that Iranian support flowing in for
“Al-Sabirin” clearly defines the orientation of the movement.
Many consider Salem a mere Iranian proxy promoting Shi’itism across the Gaza
Strip. Other Islamic movements and the Salafists had broadcasted several
times videos in which events and rituals relevant to the Shi’ite sect being
held in Gaza. What makes accusations real for observers, is the YouTube
videos showing Salem talking about historical events that are important to
Shi’ites, such as the battle of Karbala and the killing of Imam Hussein.
Palestinians are concerned that movements like “Al-Sabirin” will lead to an
outbreak of sectarian strife in the Gaza Strip.
Gaza Journalist Tawfiq Abu Shomar: Israel Buys Slavegirls on ISIS Market, Converts Them to Judaism. (Memri).
Gaza journalist Tawfiq Abu Shomar, interviewed by the Turkish TRT Arabic TV channel, said: "
[Israel] has brought over Yazidis [from Iraq]. A large number of Yazidis are now being converted to Judaism and absorbed there. In addition to the ruling Jewish authorities, there are organizations abroad that buy slavegirls on the ISIS market and take them to Israel." The interview was broadcast on January 15, 2016.
Gaza journalist won't be criticizing Terrorist organization Hamas any more after torture. (Yahoo).
Palestinian journalist Ayman
al-Aloul frequently writes about the hardships of life in the Gaza
Strip, and is one of the few voices willing to publicly criticize the
rule of the Islamic Hamas movement.
But after nine
days in jail, al-Aloul says he won't be writing about politics anymore.
He said a painful experience that included beatings and being forced to
sit uncomfortably in a tiny chair has made him a "new man" and that he
will now focus on less controversial topics like sports, food,
literature and fashion.
"I've
decided not to talk about the general situation anymore," al-Aloul said
in an interview at his home Tuesday, a day after he was released. "The
experience I went through was very difficult."
Al-Aloul's
experience is part of a crackdown by Hamas at a time when the
continuing miseries of life in Gaza appear to be driving its population
toward more open dissent. Critics have grown bolder on social media
sites, and attempts by Hamas to impose new taxes have triggered rare
public protests.
He also published pictures of
people looking for leftover food in garbage containers, quoted business
owners angry over increased taxes and blamed Gaza authorities for
prolonged power blackouts.
On
Jan. 3, Hamas forces arrested him and another outspoken critic, Ramzi
Herzallah, in their homes in Gaza City.
During his detention, al-Aloul
said he was repeatedly slapped on the face by his interrogators and
twice sent to a room known euphemistically as "the bus." He described it
as a room equipped with children's chairs, where detainees are
blindfolded and forced to sit for an entire day.
"They
think that my posts on Facebook harm the Gaza government," he said.
"They considered criticizing the government to be criticism of 'the
resistance' and they accused me of harming the revolutionary unity,"
al-Aloul said.Terrorist organization Hamas' Interior Ministry declined comment.Read the full story here.
Former Israeli FM Liberman warns against allowing Turkey a ‘foothold’ in Hamas-ruled Gaza. (TOI).
Liberman, a foreign minister in the previous Netanyahu government and now an opposition lawmaker, criticized the impending agreement.
“The agreement has yet to be finalized, but its diplomatic damage is already done,” he charged in a talk at Limmud FSU.
“Opportunism is not a substitute for wise, considered policy. Erdogan leads a radical Islamist regime. The Turks trade with Daesh [Islamic State], invaded Iraq against all international rules, and have tense relations with Russia.
We’ve invested in the relationship with Greece and Cyprus in recent years, and this move will hurt those relations. It will also hurt relations with Egypt, because I can’t see Erdogan giving up his demands on Gaza, and any foothold the Turks get in Gaza will be at Egypt’s expense.” Hmmmm.....At least not everyone has lost his mind in Israel.

On Twitter And Telegram – Campaign To Fund Weapons, Fighters To Target Jews. HT: Memri.
A campaign to fund terrorist attacks
against Jews in Israel is underway on Twitter and Telegram.
The “Al-Aqsa
Nafeer Campaign,” launched a few weeks ago, states that it aims to
“prepare the mujahideen of Bait Al-Maqdis [Jerusalem, also used to
designate Palestine]… [to carry out] jihadi and martyrdom operations
targeting the Jews…” It also says that the attacks are aimed at
“liberating the imprisoned Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the aggressive Jews.”
This is not the first such campaign
online; a campaign by the same name launched in July 2015 sought
donations to support the families of Palestinian “martyrs” and
prisoners, and collected food for the needy during Ramadan.
However, the current campaign is geared
towards collecting funds for weapons and other military gear needed by
the mujahideen in Palestine in order to target the Jews; so far,
according to a statement released by the campaign, it has been
“successful.”
The statement said: “We bring to you the
glad tidings that by the grace of Allah, the brothers behind the
campaign were able to prepare 20 mujahid [who are members] in the Abu
Anas Al-Shami detachment… May Allah use them for his sake, and [may they
become a reason for] liberating Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the
Jews…”
The list of the weapons and their prices
that are being requested in the campaign include: a RPG rocket launcher
for $3000; a sniper rifle for $6000, a PK machine gun for $5500, a
Katyusha rocket at $900, a Grad missile with a range of 20 kilometers
for $4000, and a Grad missile with a range of 40 km for $10,000. Read and see the full story here.
In an October 29, 2015 address on the Hamas-owned Al-Aqsa TV
channel, cleric and TV host Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun said that "Hitler did
not do anything" and that there was not "a single shred of evidence
proving that the Holocaust really took place." He further said: "[The
Zionists] are the Nazis! By Allah, they are more Nazi than Hitler."
Iyad Abu Funun: Let me tell you, the Holocaust which the
Zionists keep chanting about, and because of which they seek the
solidarity of the world, saying: "We were burned, we were victims of
racism and Nazism"… They are the Nazis! By Allah, they are more Nazi
than Hitler. They are more criminal and racist than anyone else on
Earth. Even according to their own books and false beliefs, they are
more Nazi than Hitler. Hitler did not do anything! Hitler was a criminal
killer, but if we compare him to them, they are the Nazis and the
criminals.
They were lying about the Holocaust all along. In Arabic, "Holocaust"
means: "offering sacrifices to the gods by burning." They think that we
don't read history and don't know the details. I challenge any Zionist
to provide even a single shred of evidence proving that the Holocaust
really took place.
The figures that they talk about… Let's take, for example, [the
claim] that Hitler burned six million Jews. Woe betide anyone who dares
to doubt this figure – not even doubting the Holocaust itself, but just
the figure, saying: "It was five million, not six million." Such a
person is labeled a criminal, a terrorist. He must be liquidated and
hanged from the gallows for making light of the Holocaust and doubting
the figures. The Europeans themselves say that the number of Jews in
Europe – not just in Germany, under Hitler's rule… The number of Jews in
Europe in its entirety was six million. So how could Hitler possibly
have killed six million? He would have annihilated them, leaving none
alive.
So how did the Jewish figures come into being? According to the
Jewish figures, the number of Jews before the Holocaust in the entire
world – not just in Europe – was 16 million. In 1948, when they declared
their entity in our occupied land, they said that there are 18 million
Jews in the world. Ten years passed between the first figure and the
second one. So where did six million of them go? How could they have
been killed? These are their figures, not ours. They are not from Muslim
historians, lest anyone should say: "You're questioning the figures,
you're doubting the Holocaust, and you want to twist the facts."
We are not the only ones who are saying this. Look at all the
American lawyers and judges who were imprisoned, as well as the British
and even some Jews. There were even some Jews who were imprisoned for
doubting the figures. Some lawyers in Austria were placed on trial for
the sole reason that they doubted the figures.
The facts prove that in the last Nazi convention, when Hitler decided
to elevate the Aryan race and to distance the other races from it, he
did not propose to exterminate the Jews. That is not true. He proposed a
plan for Germany to get rid of the other, unwanted, races. Therefore,
in that convention he proposed that the Jews go to Madagascar. So how
can we say that on the one hand, he wanted to exterminate the Jews, but
on the other hand, he wanted to send them to Madagascar?
Dr. Mordechai Kedar (Bar-Ilan University) presents an historical context from which to view the current wave of Palestinian violence. A program of Rachel's Children Reclamation Foundation, from Manhattan Beach Jewish Center, Brooklyn, NY. (Oct ’15)
At the funeral on November 1, 2015 of Raed Jaradat, a Palestinian killed when attempting to stab an Israeli soldier in Hebron, his father asked the father of Danya Irshid, also killed while attempting a stabbing attack, for the hand of his daughter in marriage. To the sound of music and chants of "Allah Akbar," the two fathers embraced and danced. Footage was posted on the Internet. Hmmmm......Ok.....What happens now to the 72 virgins? WHO gets them? Do they move in with the newly weds? Hope the wife is in to virgins as well.
Middle East scholar Mordechai Kedar explains why the recent knife attacks all over Israel is not so much a political intifada, but Islam's fight for it's very survival, with respect to Jerusalem and Temple Mount.
At a rally held at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Palestinian preacher Ali
Abu Ahmad said: "Allah willing, the Caliphate will be the one to
liberate Jerusalem very soon, after annihilating the rulers of the
wicked [Arab] mini-states,... and it will annihilate the Jewish entity."
He further called upon Allah to "annihilate the Jews" and to "bring the
whip of torment cracking down upon them." The address was posted on the
Internet on October 24, 2015.
Following are excerpts:
Palestine Preacher Ali Abu Ahmad: "Oh servants of Allah, who
is more worthy of defending the people of Palestine? Is it the US army,
the European army, the Russian army, or the Pakistani army? Indeed, oh
servants of Allah, who is more worthy of defending the Muslims? Is it
the armies of the infidels, which are killing us everywhere? Or is the
armies of the Muslims? Yes, the armies of the Islamic nation are our
guns, and they were turned against us by the rulers of the wicked
(Muslims) mini-states, in order to kill us. But Allah willing, very soon
we shall regain these guns, and we shall turn them against the enemies
of the Islamic nation: the Jews, the Americans, and the Russians.
[...]
"Oh servants of Allah, the issue of the Al-Aqsa Mosque is not merely
about Jews storming the place of the Prophet's nocturnal journey, and
defiling it. It is about an entity that is plundering the lands of the
Muslims. This issue will only be resolved through the return of the
Caliphate, Allah willing. The Caliphate conquered Jerusalem, liberated
and protected it, and Allah willing, the Caliphate will be the one to
liberate Jerusalem very soon, after annihilating the rulers of the
wicked mini-states and it will return the nation to its rightful path
and annihilate the Jewish entity.
[...]
"Oh Allah, annihilate the Jews."
Crowd: "Amen."
Ali Abu Ahmad: "Oh Allah, let us kill them."
Crowd: "Amen."
Ali Abu Ahmad: "Oh Allah, make the ground swallow them up, along with their homes."
Crowd: "Amen."
Ali Abu Ahmad: "Oh Allah, they oppressed the people and sowed
corruption throughout the land. Oh Allah, bring the whip of torment
cracking down upon them. Amen."
