In an article about female jihadis in the International Business Times [IBT], Yasmin Alibhai-Brown equates Israelis who fought to defend Israel with Palestinian terrorists \u2013 who she merely describes as \u201cfemale fighters.\u201d She writes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The unending Palestinian struggle has produced female fighters. Leila Khaled, for example, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine [PFLP], hijacked four planes in the stormy late sixties. In her last attempt in 1970, the plane was forced to land in Heathrow. Khaled was holding two hand grenades. She was held in Ealing police station, five minutes away from where I live. They sent her back. Khaled is still alive and involved in the struggle for a Palestinian state.<\/p>\n

The PFLP is an internationally recognized terror organization responsible for dozens of attacks against Israelis over the decades, including suicide bombings, rocket attacks, shootings, and in 2014, the barbaric murder of five Jewish worshippers in a synagogue in Jerusalem.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last year in a speech she made in Germany, Khaled called for an intifada, referred to terrorists and mass murderers as heroes and martyrs, and said \u201cnegotiations will be held only with knives and weapons. That is what the Palestinian people are like.\u201d She was a guest of honor for the extremist BDS movement in South Africa, which masquerades as a human rights group but denies Israel\u2019s legitimacy \u2013 and actually promoted her as both a plane hijacker and \u201cfreedom fighter.\u201d She recently began a hunger strike in solidarity with imprisoned Palestinian terrorists and murderers who have been on a hunger strike for the past few weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Khaled is not involved in the struggle for a Palestinian state; she is encouraging the murder of innocent Israelis and the destruction of the Jewish state.<\/span><\/p>\n
