Ohh...so they're the ones he's talking to...

Little Green Footballs offers the following, that once again proves discretion is the better part of jihad. (Unless you can get your sister's teenage son so high he'll wear any kind of belt you like. Then it's right back to the greater glory, strike the great satan, etc., etc.)

"God Has Ordered Us to Take Care"

The noble mujahideen of Islamic Jihad are cowering like scared rats, after Israel pledged to resume wiping them out.
Of course, they’re only hiding because Allah told them to. Otherwise, they’d be out there fighting, right behind their kids.


BEIT LAHIYA, Gaza Strip (Reuters) - Islamic Jihad activists marched on Friday, vowing not to be cowed by Israeli death threats, but group leaders wary of assassination by airborne missiles avoided the rally.

Israel said on Wednesday it had resumed a “targeted killing” policy against leaders of Islamic Jihad, underlining how far a ceasefire with the Palestinians has frayed since a February summit that revived hopes of Middle East peace.

Islamic Jihad chose Beit Lahiya for its usual Friday rally. Around 1,000 faithful turned up to condemn Israel’s decision and pledge retaliation.

“Blood for blood and a shelling for a shelling!” they chanted.

But faction chiefs and masked gunmen who normally join such rallies were absent this time. Even the group’s main spokesman Khaled al-Batsh remained in a car some distance from the rally.

A Jihad leaflet distributed to marchers said: “We urge our mujahideen to take maximum precautions to foil any chance for the occupation and its planes to eliminate us.”

Batsh told Reuters: “The enemy is flying dozens of drones in our skies. Certainly we must be more careful. God has ordered us to take care against the plans of the Zionist enemy.”
