Booby-trap Your Children!

Khalil Harb

"Masha Allah... Masha Allah"[An expression of appreciation, joy, praise, or thankfulness for an event or person that was just mentioned.] A sick man repeated the phrase as he sent his two daughters to their deaths in an act of "jihad" while he himself hides in some ditch.

A lot of people were heartbroken yesterday as they watched this horror unfold. They were filled with bewilderment, astonishment, and wonder. Why doesn't he go out and meet the "infidels" as he says? We don't know. Why doesn't he leave his cowardice behind and invade those in Damascus? We don't know.

We know from what we've seen in a series of videos that he holds a grudge against the "infidels, Shiites, and green buses". We also know that he is not like us. But the two children, Fatima and Islam, are like our daughters. The fear on their faces is a testament to the greatest decay of this world, which has allowed such a criminal to glorify his harlotry in such a way.

Did you give her an option of a better life, or waited for the answer from a normal, naive, and simple child, which would have spoken of dreams about butterflies, colors, and songs? Then you use your creator to teach her the art of invasion, while you and the likes of you lie in your den. What morals, religion, or honor allows you to ask a seven-year-old child "will you hand your self in so the infidels can kill you and rape you?" What school did you graduate from? What intellectual garbage made you into a serial killer taking pleasure from his own daughter's body parts?

The "green buses" made you desperate! That is a stupid excuse to drag Fatima to her death. What will we say about you and people like you, who go down in history known only for the brutalities they commit? You are the embodiment of all that is not acceptable to any revolution, movement, or demands for change. You are our opposite, the opposite of life; you are the first Cain, even more criminal than him.

There is no alleged "revolutionary" movement that offended itself more than what the armed factions in Syria did to themselves. The evidence is no longer scarce. You do not need publicity and P.R. companies to ruin a "reputation" the way the "revolution" did. The bombing of the Maydan [police] station in Damascus was not the first and probably won't be the last. This is part of a downward spiral for the aspirations that some initially considered popular but which have steadily turned to sectarianism, racism, and sadism, including the pleasure in killing the enemy, filming him, burning, drowning, chopping him into pieces, running over him or grilling him. But, there is nothing more despicable than sending your daughter to her inevitable death.

The battle of Aleppo was a decisive blow to the strife-driven scene in Syria, marking a serious decline for the regionally and internationally funded terrorism. The images of Abdul Rahman Shadad and his wife "Um Nimr" urging their daughters to die before booby-trapping them [Fatima is blown up into pieces while fear saved her sister Islam] is the latest manifestation of our villainy... our moral decay and the inability of the heavens to counter our ugliness.
