16-year-old’s “will and testament” – he sought death as a “Martyr”

 PA indoctrination of youth to seek “Martyrdom” has had a tragic impact on Palestinian society, with Palestinian teenagers repeatedly seeking heroic death. Such was the case of 16-year-old Ghaith Yamin who was killed while throwing a Molotov cocktail at Israelis accompanied by soldiers, on their way to pray at Joseph’s Tomb, in May 2022. The following “will and testament” written by Yamin in anticipation of his attack and discovered after his death, shows the results of PA/Fatah “Martyrdom” indoctrination. This 16-year-old, as many others, had attacked the Israelis for the purpose of dying a heroic death and being declared a “Martyr: 

“If I die, don’t forget the following:  

  • Don’t put me in a [morgue] refrigerator because I don’t like cold!  
  • I just want you to bury me in a place where there are children so that I won't be alone!  
  • Leave my [social media] accounts open and continue to upload [posts] now and then, I don’t want anyone to forget me!  
  • The bracelet that I love is under my pillow, don’t lose it! 
  • It’s okay if you distribute copies of the Quran for the sake of my soul and write my name on the first page.  
  • Come visit me every few days and speak with me. I will hear you!  
  • Don’t cry because I don’t want anyone to be angry at me or that anyone will cry because of me!”
