The Britain-based Islamic satellite channel “Birds of Paradise,” which is aired in Gaza, offers a musical number in which children sing the following to a bouncy Middle Eastern tune:

“When we die as martyrs
We will go to heaven.
No, don’t say we are young,
This life has turned us into gorwnups
Without Palestine, what meaning is there to childhood?
Even if they give us the whole world
It won’t make us forget her, no no,
My country and my blood are for her sake.”

A male adult singer answers:

“Children, you have fulfilled your religious obligations
There is no God but Allah and the martyr is his favorite.
You have taught us the meaning of manhood.”

The channel’s founder, Khalid Maqdad, is a Jordanian citizen of Palestinian origin.

    muhammed = Satan
    The false prophet broke 8 or 9 of the 10 commandments and his followers look to him as the ideal man. islam is NOT a religion of peace and never will be. Their book tells them that it is proper to lie to non-believers to advance islam. Their prophet instructs that anyone who switches to any other religion must be killed. We can not afford to lose this war and our leaders must take off the gloves and fight to win.
