Jamal Abu Samhadana ((アラビア語:جمال أبو سمهدانة), February 8, 1963 – June 8, 2006), from Rafah in the Gaza Strip, was the founder of the Popular Resistance Committees (which have been held responsible for firing missiles into Israel),〔(Hamas defies 'security force' ban ), ''BBC News Online'', 21 April 2006.〕 a former Fatah and Tanzim member, and number two on Israel's list of wanted terrorists. On 20 April 2006 he was appointed by Said Seyam, Interior Minister of the Palestinian National Authority's new Hamas-led government, as director general of the police forces in the Interior Ministry.〔(Rocket chief gets top post ), ''Ynet News'', 20 April 2006.〕〔Amos Harel and Arnon Regular, (Wanted militant tapped for post in PA Interior Min. ), April 23, 2006.〕 In April 2006, Samhadana was quoted as saying that "We have only one enemy. They are Jews. We have no other enemy. I will continue to carry the rifle and pull the trigger whenever required to defend my people." The appointment "sparked new criticism from the U.S. and Israel and intensified the struggle for control of some 70,000 Palestinian security forces" between Hamas and President Mahmoud Abbas.〔Eric Westervelt, (Hamas' New Security Force Rankles Israel, PLO ), National Public Radio, 21 April 2006.〕 Abbas subsequently issued a decree preventing the formation of the force that Abu Samhadana was to have headed.〔Conal Urquhart, (Palestinian president vetoes Hamas police ), ''The Guardian, 22 April 2006.〕 However, Hamas defied the President's veto and proceeded with the nomination. Abu Samhadana survived an Israeli missile strike in the Gaza Strip in December 2004.〔(Palestinians survive Israeli bid on life ), Al jazeera, 10 December 2004.〕 On June 8, 2006, Samhadana was killed in a targeted killing, along with at least three other PRC members, by four missiles fired by Israeli Apache helicopters, guided by Israeli reconnaissance drones, at a PRC camp in Rafah. ==Assassination== Although Israel acknowledged that Hamas was largely sticking to a ceasefire, on June 8, 2006, Samhadana was killed in a resumption of targeted killings, along with at least three other PRC members, by four missiles fired by Israeli Apache helicopters, guided by Israeli reconnaissance drones, at a PRC camp in Rafah.〔〔 Palestinian human rights sources called the killings extra-judicial executions and assassinations. They reported that Israeli media sources stated that Defense Minister Amir Peretz had personally approved the operation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Serious Escalation in Israeli Attacks )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Al Mezan condemns the assassination of Abu Samhadana )〕 Al Mezan Center for Human Rights condemned the assassinations, particularly the fact that they were adopted as official Israeli policy. It said that assassinations were war crimes according to international humanitarian law, mainly the Fourth Geneva Convention, which bans all types of extrajudicial capital punishment.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jamal Abu Samhadana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
