Palestinian who slaughtered Fogel family has no regrets

American Thinker  "In a chilling statement to reporters, an unrepentant Amjad Awad proclaimed "I don't regret what I did, and I would do it again," adding "I'm proud of what I did and I'll accept any punishment I get, even death, because I did it all for Palestine." "
In a related item, hundreds of Muslims took to the streets in protest against the senseless killing of innocent Israeli families... What?... Wait, um, never mind. I misspoke.

 village of Awarta, arrested in April on suspicion of murdering five members
of the Fogel family in Itamar, were charged with five counts of homicide
 at a military court on Sunday.

Tunnel Dweller did an internet search for "muslims protest killing of Israeli family." The first page yielded just what you saw and the second page had just this one:



A Memo to American Muslims  "I hope that we will now rededicate our lives and our institutions to the search for harmony, peace and tolerance. Let us be prepared to suffer injustice rather than commit injustices. After all it is we who carry the divine burden of Islam and not others. We have to be morally better, more forgiving, more sacrificing than others, if we wish to convince the world about the truth of our message. We cannot even be equal to others in virtue, we must excel.
"It is time for soul searching. How can the message of Muhammad (pbuh) who was sent as mercy to mankind become a source of horror and fear? How can Islam inspire thousands of youth to dedicate their lives to killing others? We are supposed to invite people to Islam not murder them.
"The worst exhibition of Islam happened on our turf. We must take first responsibility to undo the evil it has manifest. This is our mandate, our burden and also our opportunity."

To which we say amen and thank you, Doctor.
