Reports: Hamas |
|
IMPACT-SE (formerly CMIP) published one report on the Hamas
website Al-Fateh:
Hamas Web Magazine for Children Incites
to Terror, 
Annihilation and Self-Destruction
May 2009 Update
IMPACT-SE recently completed its report on Al-Fateh (http://al-fateh.net),
the Hamas web magazine for Children, which serves as its internet
educational instrument, supports its ideology and terrorist
activities, and serves as a platform for Hamas propaganda
and indoctrination, especially of Palestinian, and more generally,
Arab and Muslim, children. Politically, the website’s
consistent message is a call for the destruction of Israel
and the establishment of an Islamic state in its stead, and
an armed struggle of violence and terror against all who are
defined as the enemies of Islam, including the West in general.
The site indoctrinates children to adopt the concepts of jihad
and martyrdom and aspire to become not just fighters but suicidal
martyrs, effectively preparing them to serve as the next generation
of sacrificial instruments in the war of terror and annihilation
waged by Hamas.

Al-Fateh Report Impacts British Prime Minister
IMPACT-SE’s efforts to affect positive change through
its research and fight hatred, intolerance, and incitement
against the West and the Jews have lead to an unprecedented
success. IMPACT-SE presented MP Louise Ellman (Labour)
with its report on the Hamas Web Magazine for Children
(Al-Fateh) and illustrated the danger it poses
for children in the Middle East and Britain. MP Ellman
has since called on Prime Minister Gordon Brown and other
ministers to block access to the site in the UK, invoking
and quoting from the report. The British Home Office is
currently looking into her request. See:

IMPACT-SE set out in May 2009 to present its findings on
Al-Fateh, the Hamas Web Magazine for Children in

non-engagement vis-à-vis Hamas... [Read
