31-Aug-10: Reuters says Hamas praises the murder of four Israeli civilians

In the spirit of paying close attention to what the terrorists say, here is a Reuters report issued in the past hour.

Hamas praises West Bank shooting attack
GAZA | Tue Aug 31, 2010 1:35pm EDT
GAZA Aug 31 (Reuters) - Hamas Islamists in the Gaza Strip praised a shooting that killed four Israelis in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday but did not claim responsibility for the attack.
"Hamas praises the attack and regards it as a natural response to the crimes of the occupation," said Sami Abu-Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman in Gaza, adding that the attack was proof "of a failure of security coordination" between Israel and the Palestinians. Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip, opposes the peace talks starting in Washington on Wednesday and is not taking part.

We googled Hamas and "natural response". There are more than 3,200 hits at this time. This 'natural response' pose works far better than telling the truth - that the jihadists will do whatever it takes, including sell their own people down the river and impose misery on everything, everyone, within reach in order to express their utter loathing of people who fail to comply with their religious dictates.

Jihadist terror (as My Right Word points out tonight) has been a constant in our relationship with the Arabs, forcefully expressed by the repeated and constant resort to terror throughout the past ninety years up to and including tonight.

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.
