Also, when #MEMRI or #PalWatch tell you a quote of "joy at his martyrdom"

think about what they might have trimmed off…

"tears streamed from their eyes in grief over the separation from their dear (Ayman) and…"

sometimes it pretty much is that blatant

there isn't one because that #72virgins story isn't Arabic

it's an Islamophobic trope from Israel loosely based on central Asian Hadith / folklore

"meet the angels" is probably a better description of what they sometimes talk about in Arabic, there is often more emphasis on being reunited with dead relatives

Ansar Allah are a bit nuttier than most Palestinian groups, maybe they're different, but I sceptical of the idea unless you have a source that doesn't get its story from #MEMRI or #PalWatch or Assaf Moghadam
