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

Fatah top dog: Murdering Israeli civilians is one of the “values, customs” of the “Palestinians”

Dec 23, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Whence this hatred? Find out in The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process.

“It’s official. It’s a Palestinian “value” to murder Israeli men on their way to prayer,” by Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch, December 19, 2019:

Two Israelis, Rabbi Nehemiah Lavi and Aharon Bennett, were stabbed to death in October 2015 by 19-year-old Palestinian terrorist Muhannad Halabi. The terrorist attacked the Bennett family on their way to pray at the Western Wall in Jerusalem. Halabi murdered the father and another man, and also stabbed and seriously wounded Bennett’s wife, Adele and their 2-year-old son.

In the eyes of senior Fatah official Abbas Zaki, murderer Muhannad Halabi was following Palestinian “values,” when he only killed the father and “spared” the mother and the son. Zaki’s claim is false on two accounts.

1. PA ideology does not limit its support for murder to Israeli/Jewish men but supports murder of women and children as well.
2. Murderer Halabi did in fact try to murder the mother and the son, however they miraculously survived with stab wounds.

Although the PA’s policy of promoting and rewarding the murder of Israeli men, women, and children has been documented thousands of times by Palestinian Media Watch, it is unusual for a senior Palestinian leader to admit in front of cameras that murdering a rabbi is a Palestinian “value” because the murderer did not also kill his wife and infant child: “We don’t kill people as we please. There are values, customs.”

The following are Zaki’s words and lies:

Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki: “When the children of Palestine felt a while ago that the [PA] leadership didn’t know what to do… Muhannad Halabi went out with a knife… He succeeded in infiltrating Jerusalem and killed a rabbi [Nehemiah Lavi]… When he saw… a small child – a woman and her son – he did not kill him (sic., he stabbed and injured both). This is from Almighty Allah. For we don’t kill people as we please. There are values, customs.”

[Official Fatah Facebook page, Oct. 19, 2019]

How many lies can Zaki make in one sentence?

First lie: Murdering Men, Women, and children is supported by the PA:
Zaki claims the PA values support murdering only men, but not the murder of women and children. This is a lie. The PA rewards and honors all Palestinian terrorists. The PA pays high monthly salaries to all terrorist prisoners including murderers of women and children. The Awad cousins murdered Ruth and Ehud Fogel and their 3 children; Yoav aged 11, Elad aged 4, and Hadas aged 3 months and the terrorists have already received 548,800‬ shekels ($156,337) in PA salary following their arrest.

Reconfirming the PA’s support for those child murderers, Abbas’ official PA TV chose to interview the mother and aunt of these murderers, and one of the child killers was glorified as “the hero, the legend.” [Official PA TV Jan. 19 and 21, 2012]

Dalal Mughrabi led the murder of 37 Israelis, including 12 children, some aged 2, 3, 5 and 6, and the PA has named 6 schools, numerous sporting events, and cultural centers for children after her.

The families of all Palestinian suicide bombers – who have murdered hundreds of women and children – all receive high monthly PA allowances for life, because their relatives were killed and died as “Martyrs” while murdering Jews.

Conclusion: The PA absolutely values murdering Israeli women and children, along with murdering men….

    Prominent American members of Jewish Voice for Peace and prominent Israeli members of Breaking the Silence ascribe the root cause of Palestinian Arab violence to the sins of Occupation.

    Former President Obama frequently highlighted the negative consequences of the Occupation on the culture and values of both sides. A brilliant student of history, America’s first President of Color eloquently argues that expanding Jewish settlements posed the predominant barrier to peace by impeding the feasibility of a Two-State Solution.

    This perspective is endorsed by the UN and has been supported by “New Historians” both in Israel and in the Diaspora.

    “Avi” Shlaim, a distinguished senior Israeli New Historian and Emeritus Professor of International Relations at the University of Oxford, published an influential article in The Guardian in 2017 entitled “Believe it or not, Barack Obama had Israel’s best interest at heart.”

    “That Obama detests Netanyahu is common knowledge. What is less well known is that Obama’s personal antipathy towards the prime minister co-exists with a genuine commitment to the welfare and security of the Jewish state,” observed Prof. Shlaim. “Obama’s actual record over his eight years in office makes him one of the most pro-Israeli American presidents since Harry S Truman.”

    Widely praised in the mainstream media (including the prestigious NYT, WP and NPR) and endorsed by prominent Rabbis in the US Reform Movement, this perspective teaches us to discount any endogenous cultural and religious dynamic in the Arab world that preceded modern Zionism. President Trump’s opposite understanding of history is creating cognitive dissonance.

      Moshe,

      Please take the time to read Robert Spencer’s “The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process.”

      Read it with an open mind using factual evidence-based logic.

      If it changes your mind, admit to yourself – and to the readers of Jihad Watch.

      Moshe, have U actually read any of the history of the middle east? do U understand islam? rather than tell us what somebody whom U admire said, why not quote historical events to illustrate your points? why not quote surrah and ayah from the quran, or ahadith from the kutub alsittah, that prove that islam is a peaceful religion, and that its adherents are as trustworthy as those of any other religion?

      while i admire your desire to stand up for those whom U believe are being wronged, U should be able to argue from basic sources; otherwise, U are merely parroting what others are saying and contributing nothing to the conversation. jewish organizations saying that “occupation” is the reason for the troubles in the area is not proof that their statements are true. as for mr. obama’s “pro-israeli” stance, it seems that his state department gave money to OneVoice, a leftist israeli organization, which it then used in an attempt to thwart the re-election of mr. netanyahu (according to the washingtion times on 2016-07-12; see https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jul/12/obama-admin-sent-taxpayer-money-oust-netanyahu/). OneVoice *told* the state department how it intended to use the money, but the state department, which should have rescinded the grant (because it is illegal to use taxpayer money to participate in foreign elections), did nothing. i guess it was OK for mr. obama to break the law. we all know that when the smart people do things, they need not abide by the laws that we of the stupid stinking masses must obey (or serve prison time).

      It’s bad enough when “Moshe” flogs his claptrap here over less deadly topics, but that he is trolling us over Muslims slaughtering Jews is just sickening.

      Islamic Jew hatred *much* precedes the existence of modern Israel, as “Moshe” well knows.

      “A brilliant student of history, America’s first President of Color eloquently argues that expanding Jewish settlements posed the predominant barrier to peace by impeding the feasibility of a Two-State Solution.”
      And what impeded a two-state solution when the “occupied territories” were in Arab hands? And how about during the decades before there was an Israel? Obama a brilliant student of history? On what is that judgment based?

    The Koran says what it says. You can buy copies anywhere or borrow from any public library. As long as a billion and a half purported humans give up individual reasoning and individual responsibility and do what that evil volume directs, Jews will continue to be murdered and women will continue to be domestic livestock. Hey world, youre going to have to decide. to h0

    fatah, hizbullah, and the hard-core left are all alike in that they are human organizations. the organizations of the ummah are certain of receiving cover from the lying legacy media (as in lies that hide the aims of the pious ummah), so they occasionally slip and let the truth out. usually, because the left *NEVER* examines any but the statements made in english or other eurabian languages from the ummah, they can rest assured that they can speak relatively freely when speaking in arabic. besides, the lying legacy media is certain that nobody of the stupid stinking masses would ever bother checking up on them, so why bother trying to cover things in a foreign language?

    the net result is that one may go to organizations like PMW and MEMRI for translations like this one, and can easily see that the media are either extremely lazy at best, or are treasonous liars at worst. if this is the best that they can offer, then i choose to get my information elsewhere. lack of reporting is also fake news!

    Fatah top dog: Murdering Israeli civilians is one of the “values, customs” of the “Palestinians”
    …………………..

    Just disgusting–but also true. What is more Islamic than murdering Jews?

    It also reminds me of this story:

    “Hugh Fitzgerald: ‘Raping me is his prayer to God. It’s allowed. It’s halal.'”

    https://www.jihadwatch.org/2016/03/hugh-fitzgerald-raping-me-is-his-prayer-to-god-its-allowed-its-halal

    God, I hate Islam.
