Armed Men Steal Lion Cub from Gaza Zoo
Three weeks ago, armed men kidnapped Sabrina, a three-month-old lion cub, from the Gaza City Zoo.
The four men also tried to abduct Sakher, Sabrina's brother, who, despite being little bigger than a labrador, managed to scare them off.
Sabrina "needs 3kg of fresh red meat per day and a lot of exercise. If she doesn't get these things, she will become very dangerous," said zoo director Saud Sawar.
Now what in the world would a militia want with a lion who had become "very dangerous" in a place in which
one gunman admitted was "a jungle full of gangs and militias?"
Unfortunately I have experience with why people steal dangerous animals in dangerous places. I grew up in a neighborhood known only for its record-setting murder rate. My family had more than one German Shephard guard dog stolen from us. These animals are purpsefully abused and undernourished to become dangerous and therefore very useful.
A key tactic of the Palestinian hero Saddam Hussein was feeding people to lions. I predicted in August that Gaza would become a world terror hub after Israel left and have been documenting the evidence ever since.
Prediction:
Saddam's terror tactic of feeding people to lions will be adopted in Gaza.
