Hamas to Launch Campaign to Find Palestinian Spies Working With Israel

Mar. 4, 2013 7:30am Billy Hallowell

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (TheBlaze/AP) — Gaza’s Hamas rulers say they will begin a new campaign to find Palestinian collaborators with Israel.

Col. Mohammed Lafi of Gaza’s Interior Ministry said Monday that the campaign aims to protect Palestinian militant groups battling Israel. Lafi says they will also warn other Palestinians of the dangers of spying.

Israel security officials have long relied on a network of informants in the Palestinian territories to keep tabs on militants. Arutz Sheva has more on the announcement:

Col. Mohammed Lafi, a senior security officer in Gaza, said Sunday that the new campaign will be more comprehensive and thorough than previous ones.

Lafi claimed that during the last round of confrontation with Israel (Operation Pillar of Defense). Hamas’s security forces were able to monitor some of agents and arrest them, preventing them from passing information to Israel about possible targets to attack.

Since Hamas seized power in Gaza in 2007, it has taken a tough line on Palestinians accused of collaboration with Israel. Gunmen have killed more than 24 suspected collaborators, and jailed 20 suspects.

A Palestinian rights group urged Hamas to ensure fair trials for the accused.

Lafi says the campaign, including TV ads and offers of amnesty, will begin on Wednesday.

The Islamists will make the Inquisition look like child’s play. As for the USA, study the Salem witch trials. This is a very effective way to stop subversion by those Christians, and conservatives. Crowd control is an added bonus.

During the 1973 Yom Kippur war when Egypt attacked Israel, this prophecy was said, October 9, 1973: “For now is the time of Armageddon. The Fifth Angel walks upon your earth. But beware — should the Eagle [U.S.A.] not spread its wings and give protection, then the Anti-Christ shall reign upon the earth, and the time of famine shall be upon your doorsteps. We have prepared that, as we have said before, to give you warning before each of these that should happen. But the nation of Israel shall stand, and the nation of the eagle shall stand, for they stand before God. And where once before the eagle nation [Rome] destroyed and scattered among the nations those of the servants of God, now the karmic action stands forth again. Therefore, place your minds in unisance.”
History repeats itself, unless man chooses to change his path. Let us pray for the protection of Israel by the U.S.

There will be no trials. Mobs will lynch anyone suspected of spying without any proof. It’s happened before and now it will happen again.

And in other news:

More velcro was ordered to make more suicide bomb vests. More black and green fabric was ordered from China to make more Hamas headbands and waist sashes for kindergarteners. A complimentary shipment of plastic swords were mysteriously shipped from China with the company logo of “mattel” on it. These swords were frisked in case they were spies. The shipment of fabric was frisked in case Chinese spies were embedded in the fabric. No microchips were found or tiny cameras. A bus of Japanese tourists were turned away from the Palestinian/Israeli border because they were thought to be spies even though every single Minolta camera was thoroughly investigated despite the putrid smell of fish breath. All spy cameras at the border were sent to prison because they were thought to be spies themselves. In other news: Everyone in Palestine has now been deemed an Israeli collaborator and shot. The area is currently inhabited by jackals and hyenas. A few rabid dogs have been seen milling around by one accidentally non disabled spy camera still thought to be a spy but there is no one there to execute it with a machine gun. In other news: a Strange swarm of locusts is heading toward Palestine to ravage all the dead bodies. Locusts are known for their flesh eating properties and prized for their hard candy shells. Like M & M’s. IN other news: Plans to inhabit Gaza by Israeli Settlements are underway as soon as the Israeli government can find a gazillion gallons of blea

Their method is simple… they pass ‘suicide vests’ out to all their members, and those who decline are clearly too intelligent to be hamas ‘agents.’

Now we have terrorists seeking out ‘spies’ within their own ranks; sounds like Obama has been talking to them again…

Intimidation tactics seem so popular with bullies. Surprised that Hamas doesn’t use the MSM to do their dirty work like our radical Democrats do here.

Injecting humor in this type of article is always helpful.

  So it’s okay to punish people for working to stop terrorists from violating human rights so long as their given a “fair trial”? The terrorists are more likely to receive fair trials than they are to give them.

  They are also thinking of investigating all swarms of locust for conspiring to work against the Muslim Bros for Israel. They are busy building tiny jail cells and scaffolds to publicly hang the vermin.

The Israelis could take out some terrorist elements easily enough by “letting it slip” that they are actually collaborators.

  You’re more than right about this – but the Israeli’s are far ahead of you on that one. Count on it.

The guys on published pictures, whose bodies these Hamas gangsters dragged behind their scooters last time and of whom they had claimed them to have been spies for Israel where later proven to be rival clan members. So is Hamas trying to strengthen it’s position by announcing beforehand that they’ll kill some more rivals under the “spy”pretext?
