Even though he was not killed doing anything remotely jihadist, Hamas still considers him a "shahid," or martyr.
Maybe because they didn't want to waste all of his martyrdom photos that he posed for, hoping for a much more glorious death at the hands of the Zionists.
The failed jihadist was married and had a two month old child, who will now lack a strong terrorist role model for a father. This is one of the tragedies of Gaza.
