Lyrics: "I'm coming towards you, my enemy, from every house, neighborhood and street I'm coming with my rifle and my faith I'm coming towards you, my enemy Our war is a war of the streets. I'm coming towards you, my enemy Our war is a war of the streets. I'm coming towards you, my enemy I'm coming towards you, my enemy, from every house, neighborhood and street I'm coming with my rifle and my faith I'm coming towards you, my enemy Our war is a war of the streets. I'm coming towards you, my enemy Our war is a war of the streets. I'm coming towards you, my enemy I'm coming towards you, my enemy, from every house, neighborhood and street." Text on screen during the video: “An invitation to a procession of rage For you, Jerusalem The [Palestinian] National and Islamic Forces invite you to participate in your masses in the procession of rage ‘At Your Command, Jerusalem,’ which will set out from Kafr Aqab (the Four Seasons Hall plaza) on Wednesday, Dec. 20, 2017, at 12:00 p.m. The procession will set out to the occupation’s checkpoint in Qalandiya at the same time as Zionist US Vice President [Mike] Pence’s visit. The gathering will begin at 11:00 a.m. Only the Palestinian flag will be waved. Jerusalem will remain our capital Jerusalem is our capital” [Official Fatah Facebook page, Dec. 18, 2017] This video was posted on Facebook by the Fatah Movement, Fatah Deputy Chairman and Fatah Central Committee member Mahmoud Al-Aloul, and Fatah Central Committee member Jamal Muhaisen. Palestinian National and Islamic Forces - an unaffiliated coordinating body comprised of representatives from factions in the PLO and outside the PLO. The Palestinian National and Islamic Forces were established in 2000 shortly after the start of the PA terror campaign (the second Intifada, 2000-2005), under the authorization of Yasser Arafat and the leadership of terrorist Marwan Barghouti. During the PA terror campaign it played an active role in coordinating political efforts and terror attacks against Israel, but since the end of the campaign it has been less significant and its activity is primarily centered in Gaza. The video’s invitation to a “procession of rage” followed US President Donald Trump’s formal recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital on Dec. 6, 2017. Trump instructed the State Department to begin preparations to transfer the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Trump added that the final borders of Jerusalem will be determined during negotiations.
