Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Mahmoud Abbas Is No Moderate & Deserves No Support

Jun 19, 2007 4:08 pm By Robert Spencer

Important information from the ZOA (many news links in the original), with thanks to Looney Tunes:

The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) is opposing any Israeli and American support for Palestinian Authority (PA) president Mahmoud Abbas” Fatah terrorist group. ( Jerusalem Post, June 17, 2007).

Mahmoud Abbas in his own words:

* On recognizing Israel:” It is not required of Hamas, or of Fatah, or of the Popular Front to recognize Israel” (Al-Arabiya [Dubai] and PA TV, October 3, 2006).

* Fighting Israel: “We have a legitimate right to direct our guns against Israeli occupation … Our rifles, all our rifles are aimed at The Occupation” ( Jerusalem Post, January 11, 2007; Independent Media & Review Analysis, January 12, 2007).

* On Jews: “The sons of Israel are corrupting humanity on earth” ( World Net Daily, January 11, 2007).

* On Israel: “the Zionist enemy” (Associated Press, January 4, 2005; CNN.com, January 7, 2005).

* On suicide bombers: “Allah loves the martyr” ( Wall Street Journal, January 5, 2005).

* On wanted Palestinian terrorists: “heroes fighting for freedom” ( Age [Melbourne], January 3, 2005); ” Israel calls them murderers, we call them strugglers” (Jerusalem Post, December 25, 2004).

* On Palestinian terrorist leaders Yasser Arafat, Hamas” Ahmad Yasin and Abdel Aziz Rantisi and Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s Fathi Shikaki: “martyrs” (Palestinian Media Center , September 9, 2005)

* On Hamas: “We must unite the Hamas and Fatah blood in the struggle against Israel as we did at the beginning of the intifada. We want a political partnership with Hamas” ( Jerusalem Post, February 5, 2007).

* On Yasser Arafat: “It is our duty to implement the principles of Yasser Arafat” ( Haaretz, January 3, 2005); “We will continue in the path of the late president until we fulfill all his dreams” (Agence France-Presse, November 11, 2005); “The Palestinian leadership won’t stray from Arafat’s path” (Yediot Ahronot, November 11, 2006)

* On disarming Palestinian terrorists: a “red line” that must not be crossed (Washington Times, January 3, 2005)/LI>
* On jailed Palestinian terrorists: “our heroes.” (Israel National News, May 26, 2006).

* On the so-called “˜right of return” of Palestinian refugees and their millions of descendants which, if implemented would end Israel as a Jewish state: “The issue of the refugees is non-negotiable” ( Jerusalem Post, January 11, 2007).

* On the Lebanese terrorist group Hizballah: A source of pride and sets an example for the “Arab resistance” (Jerusalem Post, August 6, 2006).

* Saddam Hussein: ” Saddam Hussein has entered history as a symbol of Pan-Arab nationalism” (Independent Media Review and Analysis , December 31, 2006).

Mahmoud Abbas” acts:

* Holocaust denial: He wrote a PhD thesis and published a book denying the Holocaust.

* Terrorist group Fatah: He co-founded with arch-terrorist Yasser Arafat the terrorist group Fatah, whose Constitution to this day calls for the destruction of Israel (Article 12) and the use of terrorism against Israelis as an indispensable part of the struggle to achieve that goal (Article 19).

* Funding terrorism: as senior PLO official, he funded the Munich massacre of Israeli Olympic athletes in 1972.

* Terror & incitement to violence: He has refused to implement the signed Oslo agreements and the 2003 Roadmap peace plan which requires him to fight, arrest, extradite and jail terrorists and confiscate their weaponry and end the incitement to hatred and murder in the PA-controlled media, mosques, schools and youth camps that feeds it.

* Terrorists” plan for more violence: In May 2006, he endorsed the so-called “˜Prisoners” Plan”, a document produced by jailed Palestinian terrorists, that endorses continued terrorism against Israel, legitimizes the murder of Jews, does not accept Israel’s existence as a Jewish state, abrogates Palestinian obligations under the signed Oslo agreements and the 2003 Roadmap peace plan, and insists on the “˜right of return.”

* Money for suicide bombers” families : In December 2005, he approved legislation mandating financial benefits to be paid to families of killed Palestinian terrorists.

* Mecca Agreement: In March 2007, he formed a unity government with Hamas under the Mecca Agreement that called for more violence, not peace and reconciliation with Israel.
