Hair gel banned in Gaza:Gunmen imposing hard-line Islamic law in Hamas territory

JERUSALEM – Gaza-based militants have attacked secular Palestinian youth for wearing hair gel in the Hamas-controlled territory, WND has learned.According to security officials affiliated with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party, gunmen associated with several Gaza-based Islamist organizations, including Hamas, have formed patrol units to enforce hard-line Islamic law in Gaza. The units are responsible for a slew of recent closures of pool halls, water pipe smoking clubs and stores that sell movies and music, the officials said.The security officials said they are aware of seven cases in recent weeks of Palestinian male youth being targeted by Islamist gunmen for wearing hair gel. In one case, a Palestinian teenager who protested to the gunmen that he would defy the hair-gel ban was seriously injured by the militants, the officials said. "Militants told the youths that hair gel is imitating the West and is the beginning of corruption. It doesn't go with Islamic education, it goes against Islamic tradition and behavior," said a Palestinian security official.According to Israeli security officials, a Gaza-based Anti-Corruption Unit was first formed by militias associated with Hamas in 2005 just prior to Israel's evacuation of the Gaza Strip. Immediately after its formation, the unit set up its own Islamic court system and carried out a high-profile "honor killing" of a woman it suspected of committing adultery.
