Elder of ZiyonThe Islamic Jihad news site Palestine Today has a photo essay of their “Jihad Barq” units that send incendiary balloons to Israel:
The headline of the piece translates to “The Jihad Barq Unit is preparing to turn Israeli settlements into a mass of fire."
They are explicit that their goal is the burning of communities and the target is Israeli civilians. Burning a community means killing the people there.
The purposeful burning of fields and forests is a war crime. The targeted burning of entire towns would be a crime against humanity.
Will any Palestinian group, or “peace” group, or human right group, condemn the explicit call for a crime against humanity by Palestinians?
Of course not. Palestinians aren’t expected to be moral human beings so their immorality is not newsworthy, let alone something to be condemned.
UPDATE: A statement from the Gaza terrorists, meant for Western consumption, said the balloons were "non-violent popular means."
