Unlike Hawwash, Abu Hamid is a convicted terrorist. He is now in Barzilai Medical Center with cancer. His condition has reportedly deteriorated in recent weeks and he now has pneumonia.
His photo is all over Palestinian websites, and today an Algerian newspaper Al-Wasat Al-Maghrebi added an entire two page supplement praising this Arab hero.
Abu Hamid was the top deputy of Marwan Barghouti, the head of the Tanzim terror group. He was convicted of seven murders and he helped facilitate more. He refused to participate in the trial, but in the end
Here are the people he was responsible for murdering.
Binyamin Ze'ev and Talia Kahane |
Eliahu Cohen of Modi'in |
Gadi Rajwan |
Salim Barakat |
Yosef Habi |
Eli Dahan |
Those aren't his only victims. Abu Hamid had been convicted of murdering nine people previously - and had gotten released from prison as part of the Oslo "peace" Accords.
In court, he admitted to the murders and said that murdering these Jews (and one Druze) was legitimate in the fight against Israel.
His brothers have been convicted of murdering twelve more Israelis. Their mother is considered a model for Palestinian women.
Dying painfully of cancer is too good for Nasser Abu Hamid. May he rot in hell very soon.
