(JENIN, West Bank PIC) - The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) kidnapped at dawn Wednesday the son of senior Hamas official in Israeli jails Jamal Abul Haija during an incursion into the town of Beit Qad east of Jenin.

Sajida, the daughter of Abul Haija, said that Israeli troops kidnapped her 20-year-old brother during his presence inside a greenhouse in the town, noting that he was previously imprisoned in Israeli jails.

She added that all members of her family were and still are exposed to detention and attacks by Israeli troops.

The father Abul Haija is serving nine life sentences in Israeli jails on charges of his participation in resistance activities during the battle of Jenin refugee camp in 2002. He had several injuries and lost his left hand during the events.

During the Aqsa Intifada, Israeli apache helicopters bombed three missiles at his home, which was sabotaged and burnt several times.

His eldest son Abdelsalam was detained eight years in Israeli jails and released about one year ago. His son Asim also spent two years in administrative detention.

His daughter Banan and wife Umm Al-Abed also spent some time in Israeli jails.

In another context, different local sources told the Palestinian information center (PIC) that Israeli troops kidnapped Wednesday three Palestinian young men and physically assaulted two others in Al-Khalil, Tulkarem and Nablus.

In a separate incident, Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, declared Wednesday morning the death of one of its cadres called Yasser Radi during a Jihad mission in central Gaza.

I can't believe that there is a pro-Israel person living in Salem. And usually Salem news don't print pro Israel comments because they feel to sorry for the terrorists

Editor: We have this type of person living in Salem that you would properly consider pro-human.  This story by the way, is simply a report, an update, and if you take it as pro-Israel, that is your business.  Nations do not have a right to kill extraordinarily large numbers of people in retribution, yet Israel does this.  We now know that Israel illegally possesses hundreds of nuclear weapons, and many believe that the influence of Israel helped lead our last sad president to attack Iraq, which is a sin and a crime if it is true.  Israel has laws that discriminate against Palestinian people.  Israel took the majority of the land that it exists on from people who were already there.  Large numbers of indigenous Palestinian people were murdered when Israel was settled in the late 1940's and the Zionist movement wants to see all Muslims and Christians relocated so they can have it 100% to themselves.  Israel is the most racist nation on earth, and that is a simple mathematical reality.  Thank goodness an increasing number of Israeli people are seeing what has taken place through open eyes and speaking out about it.  Over 1400 people were killed by Israel in Gaza last winter, among them several hundred children.  The "Hamas rocket attacks" combined with soldiers lost in the attack and four friendly fire casualties, put Israel's total loss of people at exactly 14.  So Israel apparently believes it's warring people are worth exactly 100 times more than a child in Gaza.  I'd say anyone who believes that is purely evil and also so full of crap they will never know right from wrong.  Believe me, I can go on about it, this world is a sad and broken place because of Israel's racism and imprisonment of Palestinian people.  The IDF shoots children from towers in Gaza, and they attack journalists and these are other reasons that they are so despised and feared.  This whole "Chosen People" line has sure caused a lot of murder, not very Godlike in my book.  So you resort to your weak labels and call us names and try to associate honest writers with anti-Semetic crap and you know and I know and God knows that there is not a stitch of truth to it, not a drop, not one iota.  Nationalism is always dangerous, but when you combine that with a religious/racist superiority line, then you cross the line for good.  This must be the ultimate test of the world, and sometimes I wonder if there is any heart and soul in Israel's leaders at all.  I, like almost all Americans, grew up learning about the Holocaust and there was nothing but sympathy in my heart for the Jewish people and I feel even stronger about it today.  I watched a film this week on YouTube called "The Happy Nazi's" about a photo album recently discovered that contains photos of the worst and most hardcore Nazi SS officers at Auschwitz.  The album proves many points that Jewish scholars have made over the years.  In the end there is life and there is death.  People should only personally be responsible for the first part, that is not the case in the Arab/Israeli world.  Palestinians need to be recognized, they need their own country, and Israel needs to stop building settlements on the tiny amount of remaining Palestinian land and for God's sake, they need to quite committing an endless series of war crimes with military equipment purchased and provided by the United States.
