It irritated me hearing that members of the ruling Palestinian faction Hamas deploring the killing of Zarqawi, describing him as a “casualty of a crusade against Arabs and Muslims.”
This morning, my friend and colleague Omar, author of 24 Steps to liberty, told me that a member of Hamas was interviewed on one of the Arab channels strongly criticizing the killing of the worst terrorist history has ever witnessed.
I immediately recalled how Palestinians well treated in Iraq and realized how ungrateful they’ve become to the country that provided home and shelter for them. It made feel so angry to feel that after all what we’ve done for them, they bit our hands.
For fifty eight years, Iraq was and is still a home for the Palestinians who once were dismissed from their lands. They lived, worked and joined Iraqis in almost everything except to suffer the terrible life Iraqis went through. They were favored on Iraqis themselves in everything starting from schools, jobs and salaries. Saddam, who deserves to be spit at, made them kings in our country, not theirs. Now after all of this, Hamas officials show up with all this hatred to the Iraqis who once suffered because of them and say Zarqawi is a “martyr”. I wished I could see him in person and spit at his face and beard that hides a demon underneath. That’s all I want to do. I don’t need words to tell him what I really feel about this. How can I speak to a person who considers the killer of thousands of innocent Iraqis a martyr? What language I should use with him?
The Palestinian people did a terrible mistake by choosing this group to be their leaders. I don’t even know whether this is going to be an official statement in the name of the people. If so, I would be so sad and angry. I hope this man was not talking on their behalf.
Now I know why this group was branded as terrorist by the U.S. and the European Union. They deserve it and they are really worthy of it. Let them dance on the blood of the innocent children, women, and elderly who had no guilt but being helpful to the homeless.
Zarqawi’s killing made me realize many things I wasn’t really convinced of or let’s say, confirmed to me how spiteful some Arabs are regarding the situation in Iraq. Aljazeera, for instance, played a big role in increasing the violence and killing any hope for a better future.
The propaganda Aljazeera did for al-Qaeda turned 90 percent of Iraqis against them after years of respect to this news channel. Aljazeera was the very first channel that broadcasted the beheadings of the innocent westerners by Zarqawi and his criminal men. The footage encouraged increasing the violence and the fear inside everybody and worsened the situation that was supposed to be positive, not negative.
When Zarqawi’s death was announced, most of the Arab and western TV stations and news agencies mentioned the crimes he did except aljazeera. On the contrary, they showed and talked to all those who believe that he was a “holy warrior and a martyr”.
No wonder why Aljazeera is also branded as a channel having a terrorist propaganda. They also deserve it.
One last thing I want these two little things, Hamas and Aljazeera, to know that they let us down and helped in more killing of innocent Iraqis. The day will come when both of them regret the days they rejoiced the killing of the Iraqi innocent citizens.
