Hello, I know next to nothing about "Palestinian Islamic Jihad", but I do know that the word "terrorist" is almost *never* NPOV. It was claimed that the group refers to itself as a terrorist group. Can this claim be substantiated? Silver Maple

Shkaki/Shaqaqi

"...Palestinian Islamic Jihad was formed in the Gaza Strip during the 1970s by Fathi Shaqaqi as a branch of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.

Shkaki led the organization for two decades. He was killed in..." I guess that Shkaki and Shaqaqi is the same person. If he is, his name should be spelled the same in this document.

Fixed this.--Yunis 12:00, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Last sentence

I deleted the last sentence, which read

"Critics of Islamic Jihad say that Palestinians in this group have gotten so caught up in their narcissistic rage that they have lost the core value of humanity: the value of human life."

It sounds too much like an author's personal opinion being inserted under the "some people say" cloak. The facts about Palestinian Islamic Jihad are bad enough; let them stand on their own without pop-psych-speak about "narcissistic rage."

Hamas split from it?

I don't think either split from the other. Certainly Hamas did not split from IJP, and if IJP was founded in the 70s as stated here then it can't have split from Hamas, which was founded in 1987. Palmiro | Talk 16:18, 23 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
