Ahmed Jabari (1960 - 2012)
Israel murdered him in cold blood.
by Stephen Lendman
On November 15, thousands in Gaza City residents mourned Jabari's assassination. Israel murdered him the previous day in cold blood.
Score another victory for occupation harshness. Add one to the column of Israeli crimes against humanity. Volumes are needed to list them. Israel lives by the sword of injustice. One day perhaps it will perish for its villainy.
Hamas officials and Qassam Brigades leaders stayed away from Jabari's funeral for their safety. They're marked men. IDF spokesman General Yoav Mordechai said, "Were I a Hamas operative, I would opt to shelter underground."
Mourners carried Jabari's body ritualistically. Others fired guns in the air chanting, "You have won."
London Telegraph writer Phoebe Greenwood said Gazans called his assassination "the straw that's broken the camel's back. The people are saying that 'we don't care. We want all our men to fight. We've got nothing to lose now.' "
