January 2002 Terrorist Ziyad Da’as
January 2002 Islamic Murder, Mayhem, and Mutilation
Murder
In a school in Tulkarem (West Bank) this week [Aug. 16, 2007], a soccer tournament was named after Ziyad Da’as. Da’as planned the attack in which a gunman opened fire with an M-16 rifle at a Bat Mitzvah in Hadera in January 2002, killing six and wounding 30. He was also behind the kidnapping and murder of two Israelis in Tulkarem in 2001. Da’as, a Fatah-Tanzim city commander, was killed by Israel in August 2002.
