George Elias Khoury (1983 - March 19, 2004, Arabic: جورج إلياس خوري, Hebrew: ג'ורג' אליאס ח'ורי) was an Israeli Arab murdered by a Palestinian terrorist while jogging in the neighborhood of French Hill in Jerusalem.
The Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, the military branch of the Fatah movement, claimed responsibility for the attack.
Ibrahim Kandalaft, Arafat's adviser on Christian affairs, eulogized Khoury on behalf of the PA chairman, describing him as a shaheed (martyr) of the Palestinian cause.
But the victim's mother interrupted him by declaring that her son was an "angel, not a shaheed.
"[3] George's grandfather, Daoud Khoury, was also assassinated in an attack in Jerusalem, when a booby-trapped refrigerator exploded at Zion Square.
