“From Nazi Germany to the PA: Murder of Jews/Israelis is heroic,” by Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch, January 27, 2022:
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day it is important to recognize that state sponsoring, honoring, and rewarding murderers of Jews and Israelis did not disappear with the destruction of Nazi Germany. Today, the Palestinian Authority presents Palestinian terrorist murderers in prison, and dead terrorists – so-called Martyrs – including suicide bombers, as the ultimate heroes and role models for Palestinian society and children.
The following are examples of how the PA has repeatedly honored two terrorist prisoners who kidnapped and murdered Israeli soldier Avraham Bromberg in 1980.
Karim and Maher Younes are Israeli Arab terrorist cousins. They were originally sentenced to life in prison for the murder, but Israeli President Shimon Peres as a good will gesture to Mahmoud Abbas, reduced their sentences in 2012 to 40 years.
One great honor PA gave to Karim Younes was when PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in May 2017 appointed the murderer to the Fatah Central Committee, the executive branch of Fatah, comprised of the most important Fatah leaders. Abbas’ message to Palestinians on the importance of murdering Israelis could not be clearer.
Karim Younes recently began the 40th and final year of his sentence. In the PA the excitement is building up and the leadership is preparing to receive their “hero.” Official PA TV has dedicated entire programs to the terrorist, and broadcast PA officials’ visits to his home. One visitor was Chairman of the PA-funded Prisoners’ Club Qadura Fares who praised the two murderers as “two heroic important leaders,” asserting that they have become “symbols for the entire Palestinian people”:
Official PA TV host: “Today’s topic is prisoner Karim Younes… and prisoner Maher Younes (i.e., murderers)” …
Chairman of the PA-funded Prisoners’ Club Qadura Fares: “Allow me to send greetings to them and to say good evening to them and to all their brothers and comrades: the male and female prisoners. I bow in honor and admiration to the two symbols of the struggle, these two heroic important leaders… They have become symbols for the entire Palestinian people.”

The PA message of support for murder is again explicit. Murderers of Jews/Israelis are “symbols for the entire Palestinian people.”
Fatah posted about the coming “year of freedom” for the two “giants”:
Posted text: “The two giants Maher Younes and Fatah Central Committee member Karim Younes (i.e., terrorist cousins, murdered 1) are beginning their 40th year in the occupation’s prisons, and this is the year of freedom, Allah willing”

Also fellow terrorists admire the two murderers. PA TV served as platform for released murderer Zuheir Al-Shashniya to address the two murderers – in his terminology “two mighty heroes” – stressing that they are “glowing… and shining names in the skies of Palestine”:
Released murderer Zuheir Al-Shashniya: “We say to Karim and Maher [Younes] (i.e., imprisoned murderers): You are glowing names, shining names in the skies of Palestine. We say to our Palestinian people in the Interior (i.e., Palestinian term for Israel): Decorate your skies and decorate your land for Karim’s reception. Every day that passes is a victory for us for the reception of these two mighty heroes, who taught us the organizational method of operation… They are shining stars in the skies of Palestine. We say to them: We bow before you in honor and admiration, you are greater than everything in Palestine. You are all of Palestine.”

The PA TV studio was adorned with posters of terrorist prisoners, including: Karim and Maher Younes, Nasser Abu Hmeid, who was responsible for the murder of 7 and Hassan Salameh, who was responsible for the murder of 46 (see longer descriptions below.)
Palestinian Media Watch has already exposed that the PA has named at least two squares after Karim and Maher Younes, and at a school, the PA planted trees in their honor and displayed photos of them. Abbas’ deputy chairman in Fatah, Mahmoud Al-Aloul, singled out Karim Younes as an example of the “dear” and “beloved people” in prison, of whom PA leaders are “proud”:
Fatah Deputy Chairman Mahmoud Al-Aloul: “We can’t speak about all the prisoners, but we are proud of them all, of dear Marwan [Barghouti], of dear Karim [Younes] (i.e., both terrorist murderers), of Fuad Al-Shubaki (i.e., weapons smuggler), and of the large group of beloved people… They live in the heart, conscience, and awareness of every Palestinian.”

Similarly, top PA official Jibril Rajoub has praised them as “national leaders,” “my brothers and colleagues in prison.”
Fatah Central Committee Secretary Jibril Rajoub: “I send blessings to my brothers and colleagues in prison, and foremost among them the two national leaders, my colleagues in the [Fatah] Central Committee, brother leader Marwan Barghouti and brother leader Karim Younes (i.e., terrorist murderers) and to all members of the [Fatah] Movement in the homeland, the diaspora, and in the fortresses of imprisonment.”

I’ve always said you can learn a great deal about a prople by seeing who their heroes are. And so it is here–*Ugh*.
