Local Editor, 24-02-2010

Sixteen years ago at dawn, on the 25th of February, 15th Ramadan 1414 Hijri, 30 Muslim worshippers were slaughtered while at prayer.

Another 270 were severely injured.

The massacre took place in one of the holiest sites in Palestine, at the Ibrahimi Mosque, part of the Sanctuary of Ibrahim.

It is the resting place of the Great Prophet Ibrahim and his family.

The massacre was carried out by Jewish "Israeli" settler from Brooklyn, USA.

He entered the mosque and opened fire.

We will never forget.

We will never forgive.
