In this article, PLO official Wasel Abu Yusuf responds to a video by Israeli PM Netanyahu from July 15, 2016, in which he addressed Abbas directly. In the video, Netanyahu called on Abbas to cancel the unveiling of a monument dedicated to terrorist Abu Sukkar and to fire his advisor Sultan Abu Al-Einein for saying, "Every place you find an Israeli - slit his throat." Both the monument and the Abu Al-Einein quote were originally exposed by PMW.

“PLO Executive Committee member and Secretary-General of the Palestinian Liberation Front Wasel Abu Yusuf emphasized the opposition of the national forces to the dictates and declarations that [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu directed to the Palestinians, and considered them to be a threat on the political solution.
Abu Yusuf said in a radio interview today, Tuesday [July 19, 2016]: ‘The National Forces rejected the dictates and declarations that Netanyahu directed to the Palestinians. He has no right to demand the firing of Fatah Central Committee member Sultan Abu Al-Einein or of the rest of the leadership members, [to interfere] in the matter of the monument being established in memory of Martyr (Shahid) Ahmad Abu Sukkar, or [to take] steps against relatives of the prisoners and Martyrs.”
