The PA is busy rebuilding the homes of murderers of Israelis. This gesture of appreciation for terrorists who have murdered has been authorized from the top of the PA - by both PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah.

One house the PA pledged to rebuild is that of the Abu Hmeid family. Israel demolished it on Dec. 15, 2018 following the murder of Ronen Lyubarsky on May 24, 2018, by Islam Yusuf Abu Hmeid, who's four terrorist brothers were already serving multiple life sentences for murdering at least 10 Israelis. A sixth Abu Hmeid brother was also a terrorist and was killed by Israel.

The coordinator of "the national campaign to rebuild homes demolished by Israel" in the PA, Mazen Al-Dunbuk, confirmed that the Abu Hmeid home will be rebuilt. He also announced that the homes of "the heroes of the Itamar operation" have been rebuilt already. The terrorist murderers who the PA sees as "heroes" murdered the young couple Naama and Eitam Henkin in front of their four children in 2015.

Israeli law permits destroying terrorists' homes because it has proven to be a life-saving deterrence. There are documented cases in which parents notified the Israeli army that their sons were planning terror attacks. The parents did this because they did not want to lose their homes.

In addition to the Abu Hmeid home, Al-Dunbuk announced that the home of "Martyr" Ashraf Na'alwa is being rebuilt as well. Na'alwa murdered 2 of his Israeli coworkers, Kim Levengrond-Yehezkel and Ziv Hajbi, three months ago:
  

Coordinator of the national campaign to rebuild homes demolished by Israel Mazen Al-Dunbuk: Yesterday [Dec. 16, 2018] we built four homes in the Nablus district for the heroes of the Itamar operation in Beit Furik (i.e., terror attack, 2 murdered), and now the families are living in their homes. The headline of this campaign is the family of heroic Martyr Ashraf Na'alwa (i.e., terrorist, murdered 2) and the family of prisoner Nasser Abu Hmeid (i.e., terrorist, responsible for murder of 7).

The mother of the six terrorist Abu Hmeid brothers, Um Nasser Abu Hmeid, is famous and admired by the Palestinian Authority for being the mother of 6 terrorists involved in murder of Israelis:

"[PA] Minister of Public Works and Housing Mufid Al-Hasayneh said that the ministry's vehicles have begun to clear the ruins of the house of Nasser Abu Hmeid (i.e., terrorist, responsible for murder of 7) in the Al-Amari refugee camp - which was demolished by the occupation forces last month [December 2018] - in preparation for rebuilding the demolished home... He said: 'The ministry is heading a ministerial committee to rebuild the demolished house, according to [PA] President Mahmoud Abbas' instructions and [PA] Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah's instructions.'"

Meeting with the "terror mom," PA Minister Al-Hasayneh also expressed "the Palestinian people's pride in her resolve," and stated that "this woman is an example of the resolute Palestinian mother."

Fatah posted photos from the PA minister's meeting with Abu Hmeid and of heavy machinery removing the rubble from the demolished home.

The picture shows Abu Hmeid and PA Minister of Public Works and Housing Mufid Al-Hasayneh. Behind them is a banner which includes the PA's nickname for Um Nasser Abu Hmeid: "Khansa of Palestine." The name refers to the woman Al-Khansa a woman from the earliest period of Islam who sent her four sons to battle and rejoiced when they all died as Martyrs.

At the time of the demolition of the home, Abbas' Fatah Deputy Chairman Mahmoud Al-Aloul also expressed his support for the "terror mom" and Palestinian "pride" in her "fighting children":

"Um Nasser Abu Hmeid is the mother of all of us, and she is the mother of all of the Palestinian fighters. To embrace her and take care of her is the responsibility of all of us, and to rebuild her house... We have seen Um Nasser Abu Hmeid's responses after the demolishing of her home [in the past]. She noted [she would] continue standing firm, regardless of the cost. We are always proud of Um Nasser Abu Hmeid and her fighting children."

Mahmoud Abbas also honored the "terror mom" with a meeting last year.

Hmeid herself recently
demonized Israelis, saying they are "blood suckers."

The following are longer excerpts of the reports quoted above:

Headline: "The beginning of clearing the ruins of Nasser Abu Hmeid's house in the Al-Amari refugee camp"
"[PA] Minister of Public Works and Housing Mufid Al-Hasayneh said that the ministry's vehicles have begun to clear the ruins of the house of Nasser Abu Hmeid (i.e., terrorist, responsible for murder of 7) in the Al-Amari refugee camp - which was demolished by the occupation forces last month [December 2018] - in preparation for rebuilding the demolished home...
He said: 'The ministry is heading a ministerial committee to rebuild the demolished house, according to [PA] President Mahmoud Abbas' instructions and [PA] Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah's instructions.' Al-Hasayneh added: 'The rebuilding of Nasser Abu Hmeid's house is part of the support for the citizens' resolve in the face of the occupation's arrogance and tyranny.' ... During his meeting with Um Nasser Abu Hmeid (i.e., mother of terrorists responsible for at least 10 murders; see note below), Al-Hasayneh expressed the Palestinian people's pride in her resolve in the face of the occupation, in her adherence to her national views, and in the fact that she is holding on despite the occupation having put four of her sons in prison. He added that this woman is an example of the resolute Palestinian mother, and said that it is the obligation of all of the Palestinians to support people like her."

Fatah Deputy Chairman and Fatah Central Committee member Mahmoud Al-Aloul: "Um Nasser Abu Hmeid (i.e., mother of terrorists responsible for at least 10 murders; see note below) is the mother of all of us, and she is the mother of all of the Palestinian fighters. To embrace her and take care of her is the responsibility of all of us, and to rebuild her house - this is not the first time the crime of demolishing homes is being committed. Each time a home was demolished we rebuilt it, and we will indeed continue to rebuild Abu Hmeid's home again, and this will not affect her. We have seen Um Nasser Abu Hmeid's responses after the demolishing of her home [in the past]. She noted [she would] continue standing firm, regardless of the cost. We are always proud of Um Nasser Abu Hmeid and her fighting children."
