ANOTHER MOM 'MARTYR'

By ARNOLD AHLERT
NEW YORK Post Opinion
October 6, 2005

HAIFA Hindiya, a 36-year-old mother of five, was shot to death after stabbing a female Israeli soldier in the face at a West Bank checkpoint on Monday.
"She was on her way to committing a martyrdom attack. We are not committed to the truce, and we will not respect it," said the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade statement's to the press.

She wasn't just a mother; relatives claimed Hindiya was "mentally ill."

Where is the outrage over the recruitment of a mentally unstable mother of five for "martyrdom?" What will become of her children? Will they be told their mother was a "heroine" because she was trying to kill Jews? Will they be "educated" to follow in her footsteps, to continue in the "proud tradition" of killing innocents?

The whole world knows the answers to those questions — even as Palestinians continue putting mock explosive vests on babies, teaching that the "only good Jew is a dead Jew" and insisting the greatest "aspiration" for their peoples' future is "martyrdom."

The whole world will also continue to tolerate an entire society steeped in psychotic, self-destructive behavior, which makes one wonder: Who is sicker, those who commit atrocities — or those who let them pass in silence?
