To: Mr. Fasil Fattehd
Ofer Prison
We are in receipt of your letter of complaint dated 22 April in which you objected to the stipend you will receive for your efforts to liberate Palestine by ramming into random Israelis with your vehicle, with specific mention of your stipend constituting only 75% of the standard amount for Palestinians who conduct such operations with the same casualty count.
While the movement understands your sense of frustration and injustice, it falls to me to explain that the difference between your situation and the vast majority of other Hero Pensions lies is the identities of the enemy casualties: your operation resulted in injury to non-Jewish citizens of the Zionist Entity, but no Jews, whereas the other heroes succeeded in causing physical harm to Jews, which as you know carries far more weight in the sacred struggle to oust the usurper from our land.
You of course grasp the importance of prioritizing, and therefore rewarding, harm to Jews over harm to non-Jews. Our struggle is not against non-Jews, who, historically, have not embodied by their very existence a challenge to our Islamic honor and legitimacy. We acknowledge the inferior status of non-Muslims who are not Jewish, but our current focus must remain restoring the dhimmi Jew to his rightful historical place under the boot of the Ummah, as Allah intended. I trust you grasp that this places those who harm only non-Jews, even in the pursuit of restoring the inferior status of the Jew, on a lower pedestal than those whose brave actions harm actual Jews.
Not that the Jews we aim to harm are in fact Jews, but Khazar imposters, but you get the point. And the ones who came from North African, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian stock are just “Jewish Arabs” or whatever, and not an actual people, unlike Palestinians whose origins uniformly lie in this land, precisely within the boundaries drawn by the British in 1917 and nowhere else, yes, even the ones with family surnames meaning “the Kurd,” “the Egyptian,” “the Turk,” and “the Libyan.” No need to delve too deeply into the contradictions that undermine our very narrative of identity. That would not do.
But I digress. My goal here is to assuage your grievance while still acknowledging your contribution to our holy struggle. Rest assured you will be remembered alongside all the martyrs whose faces and names grace the walls of Palestinian public facilities in numbers that render them, too, effectively anonymous.
