“Of course, Israel cannot be expected to negotiate with anyone who is dedicated to its destruction. But while I know you have had differences with the Palestinian Authority, I believe that you do have a true partner in President Abbas…” — Barack Obama, March 21, 2013
“Palestinian terrorist calmly describes how he murdered two young Israeli hikers,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik for Palestinian Media Watch, January 28:
Issa Abd Rabbo is one of the terrorist murderers that Israel was forced to release from prison in order for PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas to agree to start negotiations with Israel. Palestinian Media Watch reported that the day Abd Rabbo was released, Mahmoud Abbas called him a “hero” and raised his hand victoriously.
Until his release, Issa Abd Rabbo was serving two life sentences for killing two Israeli university students, Ron Levi and Revital Seri, who were hiking south of Jerusalem on Oct. 22, 1984. At gun point he tied them up, put bags over their heads and then shot and murdered both.
Abbas’ “hero” has now given an interview to the independent Palestinian news agency Ma’an on its weekly TV program Lovers’ Tales, which interviews released prisoners. There he calmly describes how he initiated the killing, spotted the two hiking university students and waited until they sat down to rest under a tree. He then recounts how he tied them up and murdered them in cold blood.
Mahmoud Abbas and other PA leaders have called all the released terrorist murderers “heroes,” on numerous occasions. Palestinian Media Watch recently reported that released murderer Asrar Samrin, who was released with Abd Rabbo, told PA TV that none of the prisoners regret their actions: “There is no Palestinian who did something for the homeland and his nation who will regret it. We don’t regret what we did and we will not regret what we did.”
Ma’an also interviewed Asrar Samrin recently, who was serving a life sentence for the murder of Israeli citizen Tzvi Klein (Dec. 3, 1991) until he was released. Samrin used the TV opportunity to describe the murder – see transcript below.
The following is from the text of the interview with murderer Issa Abd Rabbo:
Issa Abd Rabbo: “There was supposed to be a military operation shooting at a bus transporting Israeli soldiers… I was surprised when on my way to the area, I waited, waited and waited and the bus didn’t come. I was forced to carry out an operation on my own, an improvisation, I took it upon myself. An Israeli car approached, with two in it. I said, here’s a chance and I don’t want to return empty-handed. They left the car… and walked towards the valley, and sat down under a pine tree. I went down to them. Of course I was masked and was carrying a rifle. He asked me: Are you a guard here? I told him: ‘No, I’m in my home.’ I told him: ‘You are not allowed here. This is our land and our country. You stole it and occupied our land and I’m going to act against you.’
They were surprised by what I told them. I tied them up of course and then sentenced them to death by shooting, in the name of the revolution. I shot them, one bullet each, and went [hiding] in the mountains… I went to my aunt and told her: ‘We have avenged Muhammad’s blood.'”
Host: “She is the mother of Martyr Muhammad Abd Rabbo.”
Issa Abd Rabbo: “I told her: ‘Instead of one, we got two.’ She cried out in joy.”
[Independent Palestinian news agency Ma’an TV, Jan. 9, 2014]Issa Abd Rabbo – sentenced to two life sentences for killing two Israeli university students, Ron Levi and Revital Seri, who were hiking south of Jerusalem on Oct. 22, 1984. At gun point he tied them up, put bags over their heads and then shot and murdered them. He was released in October 2013 as one of 104 terrorists Israel agreed to release to fulfill the PA’s precondition for renewing negotiations….

By calling this Muslim murderer a “hero'” only exposes the evil and warped mindset that Islam can produce in the followers of this death cult.
Jay says
He calls it an “operation” what a joke. At least have the guts to admit what it is – murder. He is a cold-blooded murder nothing more.
One of the countless examples of Islam’s culture of death.
Salah says
“He calls it an “operation” what a joke.”
It’s not a joke, it’s an operation, an islamic one.
Here’s another “operation”…
Muhammad sent a friend of his, Umair Bin A’addy, in the middle of the night to kill Asma Bint Marwan for writing poems criticizing his holiness. He drew a sword into her chest while she was breastfeeding her baby.
See? that’s how muslim “men” do “operations”!

Cold-blooded murder committed under the authority of Sharia law…the law of retaliation.
However, the retaliation is supposed to be against the perpetrator, rather than ‘anybody who happens to be near’. But ‘whatever?’ All jihad is glorious and justified by the Sunna of Mohammed who said: “Just send out orders to kill ALL the Jews.” Presumably, Mohammed’s general order was never rescinded.
The perpetrators are so delusional that they can’t even reason to see how they offended against Islamic law. Of course, when jihadists murdered the wrong people in the hadiths and Sira, Mohammed just shook his head and told them they shouldn’t have done it. There was never any punishment for Mohammed’s thugs when they murdered the wrong person. Muslims know this.
mortimer says
This man is still unrepentant 30 years later and unable to perceive he acted criminally. He is a continuing danger to the world and should never have been released.
GWhizz says
Muslims don’t respect Israel because Israel does not execute these killers after trial. The killers sit in jail while their families get a stipend from the UN for being murderers of Jews.
Champ says
And the Jews are expected to make a peace deal with Abbas and company? Sure like making a deal with the devil!
Defcon 4 says
For every Jew in Israel, a 7.62, mm that is.
Defcon 4 says
Of course I meant as in armed, for self defense, against the small minority of muslim “extremists”.
richard sherman says
Muslims revere the sociopath Muhammad who personally decapitated 900 unarmed Jews in 627. If you revere a sociopath you are a sociopath.
Defcon 4 says
Brave mujadeen, killing two, bound, unarmed men. So brave. The kind of bravery that only islam0fascsts can admire.
Kosher Coder says
Actually, he murdered a man and a woman (Revital is a female Hebrew name), making this jihadi’s act of murder even more vile and cowardly (if that is even possible).
Mo-Blows says
How ANY human being who considers themselves tolerant and peaceful and conscientious can STILL follow and practice this religion is baffling.
How can they not know about the inspiration ( Muhammad ) for all of the islamic violence and intolerance and murder in the world? and IF they do know how can they accept WHO and WAHT Muhammad was, and still call themselves peaceful or tolerant?
Muhammad was historically in FACT , ( not open to debate ) a cold blooded slave owning murderer bandit, who is considered by ALL muslims to be the perfect man to emulate.
Islam is evil. plain and simple.
You cannot give Islam a pass just because most are non violent. That would be equal to giving Naziism a pass because most nazi party members never personally engaged in violence or murder.
The message still stands.
Islam glorifies murdering non believers, jews, and teaches to subdue or kill all non believers , ALL WITH THE BLESSING OF IT’S GOD.
HOW TWISTED IS THAT IDEOLOGICALLY?
Well clearly it’s not twisted enough for most of the leftists and apologists in the world cause they still avoid this truth and deflect from it.
To quote a wise man :
” An appaesr is someone who feeds a crocodile hoping he will eat him last”
-W. Churchill
Denying WHAT Islam is ,won’t change WHAT Islam Is.
Looking at the state of the Islamic world for many centuries and the state of it now and ho regressive and backward it really is should be more than enough indictment of it’s failures, but THAT compounded with it’s thousands of acts of documented violence each year STILL is not.
Pathetic!

“Palestinian” jihadist called “hero” by Abbas calmly describes how he murdered two Israeli hikers
……………………………..
And this is no isolated case—over and over again, “Palestinian” Muslims, including the PA, have shown that they consider the most vile murderers of civilians and children to be “heroes”.
I’ve always said you can learn a lot about a people by seeing who their heroes are.
More:
Issa Abd Rabbo is one of the terrorist murderers that Israel was forced to release from prison in order for PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas to agree to start negotiations with Israel.
……………………………..
More suicidal madness. How many of these vile Jihadists will return to killing Jews—especially when they are being lauded for it?
Zathras says
I just hope that the SOB’s next mobile phone
is packed with C4
richard Sherman says
Abbas like every Muslim reveres the sociopath MUHAMMAD who PERSONALLY decapitated 900 UNARMED JEWS in 627..so like all Muslims anytime a Jew is murdered anywhere in the world he thinks it is wonderful…Following the “example” of the murderous sociopath is what every Muslim dreams of: the Koran demands that they emulate the sociopath MUHAMMAD!

Maybe it’s time for another crusade. Just this time Finnish the job.
