Even as senior Egyptian officials met with representatives from Hamas and Fatah (supposedly trying to get them to cease suicide bombings), the Egyptian government press was spewing some of the most debased hate speech I have yet seen, hailing the Jerusalem bus bombing.

An editorial in the Egyptian government paper Al-Akhbar titled “The Jerusalem Operation: The Only Response to Israeli Terrorism,” stated that “eleven Israeli terrorists were killed in this operation.” The editorial continued: “Reacting to all of the inhuman acts of the Zionist entity intended to subdue the Palestinian people, a martyrdom operation took place yesterday [November 21, 2002] in occupied Jerusalem in order to prove conclusively that Israel deludes itself in its belief that its uncontrollable appetite to kill, destroy, and terrorize will bring security and peace.”

“It is inconceivable that the ruling gang in Tel-Aviv will succeed in fulfilling its hope of subduing the Palestinians and forcing them to accept the conditions of submission that Israel has been trying to impose on them for more than half a century.”

“This operation in which eleven Israeli terrorists were killed and dozens were wounded stems from a number of reasons, the first of which is that this operation is a consequence of a brave ambush prepared by Palestinian martyrs … in Hebron which … because of the state of madness that over took the ruling Israeli gang led by Ariel Sharon, who seeks to spill more Palestinian blood, especially the blood of children, women, the elderly, and the brave people of resistance.”

“In essence, everybody knows that the resistance is the only way for liberation, and there is no alternative. This weapon, the weapon of legitimate force, is the only weapon that Israel fears. Only the resistance can smash the Israeli arrogance and idiocy of its leaders.”

There’s a lot more in that poisonous vein. These raving freaks receive about $2 billion a year from the United States.

Here’s one of the Israeli “terrorists” whose murder the Egyptian swine are gloating over—9-year old Ilan Pearlman, who died along with his grandmother.
