Ismail Haniyeh’s Sheer Chutzpah

By COLlive reporter

“Have you killed and also inherited?”

Ismail Haniyeh, leader of the Hamas terrorist movement in Gaza, was full of praise for the Arab terrorist who drove into a crowd of Jewish people in Jerusalem on Wednesday.

Murdered in the attack was 3-month-old Chaya Zissel Braun, who had an American citizenship, who thrown from her stroller as a car swerved into the Ammunition Hill light rail station, injuring 9.

Chaya had been born after her parents had tried for years to have a baby to no avail, the grandfather Shimshon Halperin told the Jerusalem Post, adding that her parents were in shock, having just learned of her death.

“They had just returned from the Kotel. It was the first time in her life that the girl was at the Kotel. They [her parents] took pictures, they held her up to face the Temple Mount, and they told her this is the holy place,” said Halperin.

But the heartbreaking murder didn’t stop Haniyeh from calling the terrorist a “martyr” and saying: “A murder for a murder, a conflict for a conflict, and a run-over attack for a run-over attack.”

He was referring to an accident earlier this week in which a Palestinian girl was killed after a car crashed into them. The Jewish driver fled the scene, saying he feared he would be lynched, but reported the accident, Ynet reported.

Just this month, Haniyeh had his daughter treated in Tel Aviv’s Ichilov Hospital, less than 2 months after the recent Hamas terror war that targeted Israeli civilians with rocket and terror tunnel attacks.

In fact, several of Haniyeh’s relatives have received medical treatment in Israel, including his mother in-law in June and granddaughter last November, Israel National News points out.

“Next time they ask for us to treat a daughter of Ismail Haniyeh in a hospital in Israel – we’ll send them in response Haniyeh’s praise of the murder of the baby Chaya Zisel Braun hy”d,” said Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman.

“Over 1,000 patients from Gaza and the Palestinian Authority territories – both adults and children – are hospitalized for treatment at our hospital every year,” Ichilov Hospital confirmed.

Police said on Thursday that masked Arab assailants hurled stones at a kindergarten in the Ma’aleh Zeitim neighborhood, not far from the Palestinian quarter of Ras al-Amud in the eastern part of the capital.
