"The Jews Are Happy Because They Killed My Dad, But My Dad Got What He Was Looking For"
Maria Al-Hassani: "My name is Maria, and I am the daughter of the commander Iyad Al-Hassani. I love him a lot and I am very strong, stronger that all the Jews.
"The Jews are happy because they killed my dad, but my dad got what he was looking for. He is very happy in Paradise now, and when you go to hell, you will melt in it.
"We Will Keep Fighting You And Bombing You Until We Liberate Our Land"
"I am not afraid of you because you are all cowards. If not for your weapons, you would be at a very low level. You don't even know what Allah means. We will pray at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. My dad is a martyr now. We will become stronger and will pray in Jerusalem. We will keep fighting you and bombing you until we liberate our land, because this is our land and we must adhere to it."
