Palestinian youths charged with slaughter of Fogel family
By YAAKOV LAPPIN
05/06/2011
"I'm proud of what I did...I did it all for Palestine," one of the suspects
says during an appearance in court, "I would do it again."
Two Palestinian youths from the West Bank village of Awarta, arrested in
April on suspicion of murdering five members of the Fogel family
<http://www.jpost.com/DiplomacyAndPolitics/Article.aspx?id=211863> in
Itamar, were charged with five counts of homicide at a military court on
Sunday.
The defendants, 17-year-old Hakim Awad and 18-year-old Amjad Awad, who are
from the same clan, have confessed to stabbing and shooting two young
brothers, their parents, and a three-month-old baby in the attack.
"I don't regret what I did, and would do it again," Amjad Awad told
reporters in court. "I'm proud of what I did and I'll accept any punishment
I get, even death, because I did it all for Palestine," he added.
The charge sheet detailed how the two saw two young brothers sleeping in
their beds, 4-year-old Elad and 11-year-old Yoav, snuck into the home, and
stabbed them both to death.
They then entered the parents' bedroom, where they launched a knife attack
on Ehud and Ruth Fogel. The parents fought back, attempting to fend off the
attackers. Ehud died of stab wounds and Ruth was shot dead by the attackers
with a stolen M-16 gun.
The two then left the house, before hearing cries from three-month-old baby
Hadas. Awoken by the attack, the baby lay in its crib in the parents'
bedroom.
"They went back into the house and stabbed the baby to death to silence her
cries," a security source said following the arrests in April.
