21-Feb-12: Adnan the simple baker... who fronts for one of the most bloodthirsty of the jihadist organizations and has human shields in some of the most influential newspapers in the world

A baker

Sometimes the sheer silliness of public figures, analysts, politicians and political "activists" - and especially those who have usurped the word "peace" to mean the precise opposite - becomes too much to bear.

The name Khader Adnan has shot to the top of the hero-for-an-hour hit parade and a greater distortion of the truth it would be hard to imagine. We wrote about this deeply committed jihadist on Saturday (please read our blog entry "18-Feb-12: Bread, hunger and detention"). Khader Adnan, aka Sheikh Adnan Khodr aka Khader Adnan Mohammad Musa is not a simple baker. He's not a "peace" "activist". What in fact he is, is

"one of Islamic Jihad leaders" [the WAFA Palestinian news agency]
"one of the main leaders of the Palestinian militant movement Islamic Jihad" [Al Arabiya]
"Sheikh Adnan Khodr, the political leader of Islamic Jihad movement in Palestine" [Uruknet]

In short, he is a well-known leader of one of the world's nastiest terror organizations, and death and pain is what he not only wishes on us and our children and neighbours, but it's what he lives for and - according to what his promoters want us to believe - it's what he's ready to die for.

Behold the unambiguous cry from the heart of this lifelong terrorist:

Islamic Jihad Leader Khader Adnan: Baker or Terrorist? from CiF Watch on Vimeo.

The fact that Catherine Ashton, the EU foreign affairs chief, said at the weekend that Adnan's case was of "great concern" suggests to us that she and her staff have too much free time on their hands or they lack a basic understanding of how to tell the difference between the terrorists and their targets.

About us

THIS ONGOING WAR is not part of the activity of the Malki Foundation which was founded by us, Frimet and Arnold Roth of Jerusalem, on September 11, 2001. But it is inspired by the same tragic circumstances. The Malki Foundation (also known by its Hebrew name: Keren Malki) is a memorial to the life of our daughter, Malki who was murdered at the age of 15 in a massacre in the centre of Jerusalem carried out by Hamas.

Beyond its function as a remembrance of a beautiful life, the foundation provides tangible, concrete, invaluable support daily to several thousand Israeli families from every part of the religious and socio-economic spectrum: Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze and others who care at home for a seriously disabled child.

Good for the soul | The Malki Foundation

If you care to make a positive and constructive contribution to the care of Israeli children with special needs - whether they're Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze or unconnected to any particular faith community - you can't do better than direct your donation to the work of the Malki Foundation.

It's the charitable organization we, the bloggers who produce This Ongoing War, established in 2001 in memory of our murdered daughter. Her name is Malki.

Keren Malki (in Hebrew, Keren means 'foundation' or 'fund') is efficient, effective, non-sectarian, non-political and unique in the good work it does. Thousands of families from every part of our richly diverse society here in Israel have benefited in concrete and meaningful ways. Donations to Keren Malki are tax-effective in Israel, Canada, UK and the United States.

There's also plenty of background at www.malkifoundation.org as well as on the Malki Foundation Blog.
