Hamas calls to give military training to high school girls (updated)

Hamas' Gaza leader Ismail Haniyeh called to expand the existing program of giving military training  in high schools to include girls as well.

He said, "We have trained police and national security to oversee the training of girls to follow the path of istishadiyyat (female suicide bombers)."

Speaking at a graduation ceremony, Haniyeh also praised the Al Qassam Brigades and the Interior Ministry  for spearheading the boys' military training.

The Goldstone Report clung to the fiction that the Al Qassam Brigades as being a separate organization from Hamas.

Here is one of the high school boys being taught the basics: reading, writing and RPGs.
