Fatah official sends “blessings to the rockets” Hamas fired at Israel

Video posted on the Facebook page of Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki

Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki: “[Former PLO Chairman and PA President] Yasser Arafat [is the one] who told the Americans ‘no’ at Camp David, the one who stood firm in all the battles and said: ‘Millions of Martyrs are marching to Jerusalem.’ …Let none of you think that there is a Palestinian from his mother’s womb who could reduce Arafat’s value or harm him. Even if there are spies who are attempting to slander [the name] of someone who is better, more complete, and purer in struggle – that is another matter. We here in the town of Sa’ir, the town of the Martyrs, congratulate all the factions and forces. We are not alone. Fatah’s power is in that it accompanied all 13 Martyrs…

Therefore, beware of strife, beware of mischief, which in Sa’ir and other places want to turn this unity into conflict. Woe to you if you attack any faction or any person who speaks Arabic. Yasser Arafat’s enemy is Israel. Yasser Arafat’s enemies are not Palestinians – don’t let them fool you…

We say today: … Blessings to the rockets that placed Hamas- that put Israel on alert or put them in [bomb] shelters. They caused [Israel] to hide (refers to Hamas rocket barrages; see note below -Ed.)… Blessings to those who fought and are working right now in all the areas to defend the Sheikh Jarrah [neighborhood of Jerusalem], in order to defend the Al-Aqsa Mosque (refers to violent Arab riots -Ed.).”
