Notice the blood chilling remarks made by the father of a suicide bomber in Tel Aviv. Recently the leader of the Islamic North Sudanese encouraged all Islamic men to have 4 wives so that they could have more sons to send to battle against the southern Christians. Apparently to some in the Islamic religion, the purpose of life is to bring death. RS.Com

Bombers Father Is Proud Of His Son's Actions

The father of the suicide bomber who killed 19 Israeli teenagers in a Tel Aviv discotheque Friday night, told reporters that he was proud of his son Said Hotary for his actions and hoped that more Palestinians will follow in his footsteps. "I only wish I had 20 children who would follow in the footsteps of my son. This is the only way to deal with the Jews," Hassan Hotary said today in Jordan. "I am very happy and proud of what my son did and I hope all the men of Palestine and Jordan would do the same."

Said Hotary, 22, from Kalkilya, had in the past been detained by Palestinian security forces. He was released after the PA was convinced he did not intend to carry out a terrorist attack, according to an Abu Dhabi television report today.

The military wing of Hamas, Izzadin al Qassam, today claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement on its official web site and in leaflets distributed in Palestinian territories. The group identified the bomber as Hassan Hussein Hotari, from the West Bank town of Kalkilya. There was no immediate explanation for the discrepancy in the name.

Abu Dhabi Television identified the bomber, without citing sources. But Israeli Embassy officials in Jordan said they could not confirm it was Hotary. Jordanian security officials said they had no record showing that Hotary had political affiliation.
