Jordanian Paper Publishes Grisly Pictures of Bodies of Israelis Killed in Mount Carmel Fire

The Jordanian Islamist paper Al-Haqiqa Al-Dawliyya published grisly pictures of the bodies of Israelis who were killed in the Mount Carmel forest fire. After warning the readers about the nature of the pictures, it explained that it was publishing them in to illuminate the tyrannical and arrogant character of the occupier versus the helplessness of the Arabs, who are left with no option but to give up and pray for Allah's revenge.

Many of the readers' responses praised Allah for the fire and its consequences.
