[Elder of Ziyon] New Arab head of Cave of the Patriarchs murdered six Jews

Walla reports that the PA recently appointed a director for the "Ibrahimi Mosque," the Muslim side of the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron.

His name is Tayser Abu Sneiheh.

If you look at his Facebook page, you can see his profile photo shows him, circled, as a member of a terrorist cell that was responsible for murdering six yeshiva students in Hebron in 1980.

In late spring of 1980, after the women had been in Beit Hadassah for over a year, Arab terrorists attacked the Yeshiva students [who came every Friday evening to dance and sing in front of the building.] The attackers began shooting and throwing hand grenades from the roof of the building facing Beit Hadassah. Six young men were murdered and many others were wounded.

It is definitely the same person because he speaks about his appointment in other Facebook posts.

There is no way that the Palestinian Authority didn't know Abu Sneineh's past. On the contrary, it seems likely that the murders are part of his credentials to be the head of the holy site in the same city that he murdered Jewish teens. Indeed, the terror cell was from Fatah, the dominant party in the PA, and the murders are still considered heroic today.

Besides the perversion of a quasi-government honoring an admitted and unrepentant terrorist, we have a murderer who is now a director of a mosque. There are a billion Muslims in the world. Will any of them condemn the idea that a terrorist - one who brags about his murders - is leading a Muslim holy place?

We know the PA will never condemn a person like Abu Sneineh and will choose to honor him instead. They routinely honor terrorists.

But is there not a single Muslim on Earth who is horrified by the idea of a mosque being associated with a proud murderer?

If not, that says a lot more about Islam than any number of anti-Muslim websites possibly can.
