Hamas is in
mourning over Helen Thomas.
Not long after the passing of veteran American journalist Helen
Thomas yesterday, aged 92, Hamas' very own "military
wing", the Izzedeene al-Qassam Brigades, posted on its website a heartfelt eulogy.
The post - highlighted by the Elder of Zion blog - was entitled: "Rest in Peace Helen Thomas. We respect you for taking a stand."
...
But the "stand" referred to by Hamas was,
perhaps unsurprisingly, nothing to do with women's emancipation.
Instead, the group - which calls for the annihilation of the Jewish
people in its charter - praised Thomas for a rather ugly tirade against
an American rabbi, filmed in 2012.
I wonder if anyone told Hamas that Thomas was
honored by the PLO.
