First, the victims, from the Facebook page set up for them:
Five members of the Fogel family in Itamar Udi (father age 36) Ruth (mother age 35), Yoav (age 11), Elad (age 4) and Hadas (age 3 months) were murdered in their home in Itamar in Shomron by terrorists who infiltrated the Jewish community by jumping over the town’s security fence. The five were stabbed to death. Their 12 year old daughter Tamar was first to find the bodies about an hour after the attack when she returned home from local youth movement activity. She found her two additional brothers sleeping in a room the terrorist had overlooked (thank G-d).
The funeral for the five family members will be held tomorrow, Sunday March 13, 2011 at Har Hamenuchot cemetery in Jerusalem…

WARNING! The following link contains photos of the crime scene. These are VERY GRAPHIC. This is what they are celebrating, and what the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade (NOT even Hamas) is claiming credit for: Itamar Massacre. [Edit: If you are concerned for the family, this is a statement circulating with the photos: "These photos were released by the family. They have given full permission for their use and they to ask you to report on the horrific reality of murdering children and babies in their sleep, simply because they are Jewish."]
