I will urge my last three sons to be martyrs, vows newly elected delegate
By Harry de Quetteville in Gaza City
(Filed: 29/01/2006)

She has encouraged three of her sons to die attacking Israel, and would be proud if the other three followed suit. She appeared in a video with her youngest boy, Mohammed, 17, telling him not to return alive from a suicide mission. Now she is a democratically elected Hamas member of the Palestinian Legislative Council.

On the electoral rolls, she is listed as Maryam Farahat. To Palestinians she is known as "the mother of the struggle".

To Israelis, however, she is the mother only of a deadly, terrorist brood - and a political travesty.

Her home in Gaza has become a shrine to her dead sons. In front of traditional "martyrdom" posters in which her dead children - one little more than a boy - tote high-powered rifles, she explains the "holy duty" of suicide missions

This link doesn't fully work either, at least as I am testing it. This link takes one to the home page of the Telegraph and the story is on the upper left of the page
