Burnin' Love

No doubt you've heard the story of the "Israeli-Arabs Planned Suicide-Bombing 'Honeymoon'":

Ahmed Jazawi, an Israeli-Arab resident of the mixed Jewish-Arab neighborhood of Abu-Tor, was recruited by Hamas handlers from Hevron – the same terror gang that carried out the double suicide-bombing in Be’er Sheva this past August, murdering 16 people.

Jazawi, 22, had already convinced his young fiancי, to carry out the attack together with him, and was in the midst of gathering intelligence with the goal of bombing the Sbarro pizzeria when he was arrested. Sbarro became famous in the summer of 2002 when, in a different downtown Jerusalem location, it suffered a suicide terrorist blast felling 15 Jews, including parents and three of their eight children. ...
Jazawi then decided that a double suicide bombing would be more effective, and approached his new fiancי, also from Abu Tor, on the matter – and she agreed. In the end, however, they decided to postpone the attack until after the wedding. Their plans were nipped in the bud on December 15, when Jazawi was arrested and handed over to the GSS for investigation.

How lovely, they decided to join each other in paradise.
It wouldn't be the first time. However in an earlier incident the two murderers made their way to paradise in different times.
About a year ago, Reem Raiyshi, a mother of two, was caught committing adultery with Abdel Nasser Abu Shokeh by her husband. She was given a choice of an honor killing or going to paradise by herself and taking some Jews with her. Given the choice, she chose the latter. She took four Israelis with her. The spiritual leader of Hamas blessed this woman's choice to abandon her family. (Who said that religious people aren't pro-choice?) Another leader of Hamas (who hasn't yet attained his final reward) said:

“It is not enough to call her a hero. Calling her hero does not give the whole truth. This woman abandoned her husband and children to win paradise,” Zahar said in the eulogy.

About a month later Abdel Nasser Abu Shokeh suffered a work accident and joined his illicit lover in paradise. (Just in time for Valentine's Day. How Romantic.) No doubt.
