Rav  Moshe Sternbuch told me that a Jew who is killed because he is a Jew 
has  the status of a kadosh.



Rav Ahron Soloveichik zt'l also said this,specifically in connection with  
R.Meir Kahane,Hy'd.Rav Y.B.Soloveitchik also said this,as related by Rabbi  
Rothkoff in his article in Gesher,5785 ( in a footnote IIRC) Rabbi Rothkoff  asked 
the Rov about it after a shiur he attended in the early 1980s. I was at  that 
shiur,and heard their conversation. I don't recall if either Rav Ahron or  
the Rov gave a source.
