PA TV repeats libel: Israel murdered Arafat with poison, implies Israel is planning to kill Abbas too – “the plot is renewed”

Video called The 12th Anniversary of the Death as a Martyr of the Leader, the Symbol, broadcast on official PA TV on Nov. 8-9, 2016.

Song: "O bullets, let us hear the sound of joy, Fatah of the revolution will not die,
and the Fatah member will repeat loudly with us: 'Long live Fatah!'''

Narrator: "The Fatah knight, creator of Al-Asifa (i.e., Fatah military unit), the engineer (i.e., Yasser Arafat). He stretched out his body as a bridge that we crossed towards victories that came one after the other... Pistol, rifle, and military uniform, with which the Palestinian revolution moved from place to place and wandered with them from land to land... With peace, politics, and resistance, with both the olive branch and the rifle, we entered the occupied land."

Narrator: "A new battle began: The peace process. Discussions and agreements that the occupation backed out of, protected by the cover of injustice provided to it by Washington the whole way. A new battle [began]: Resolve."

Excerpt of Yasser Arafat's speech: "I say to Norway, to Egypt, to the European bloc, and to the entire world: This agreement is the peace of courageous [people], and it must be implemented from Jenin to Rafah!"

Narrator: "A new chapter in the story: The scheme. Israel and its allies found Arafat to be an insurmountable obstacle to their occupation aspirations and plans, and therefore they [laid] the siege and [committed] the murder by poison... The knight [Arafat] got off his horse, and on the back of the revolution rose another man: Mahmoud Abbas. He tried again, out of a belief in a just peace, but the same cover of injustice remained... The leader understood how matters are conducted, and began an international legal battle in order to internationalize the [Palestinian] cause. He tore off the cover of injustice, while screaming out the Palestinian right. [He made] achievements one after another, in a critical international battle while adhering to the principles."

Excerpt of Mahmoud Abbas' speech: "There is not among us, nor of us, one who will renounce one grain of sand from Jerusalem or Palestine."

On Aug. 20, 2012, then Israeli Minister of Foreign Affairs and current Minister of Defense Avigdor Liberman sent a letter to the Quartet, saying that PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas is blocking and undermining the peace process. Liberman called for elections in the PA, in the hope of replacing Abbas.
On Jan. 14, 2015, Liberman said: “I think that today too, it is clear beyond any doubt that PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas is not a partner; he’s an obstacle. Therefore, I have no doubts that if we want to move forward, with Mahmoud Abbas we will not get anywhere.”
On August 2016 Liberman met with Palestinian businessmen and economists and asked what was important for the Palestinian economy. He said they told him: “The most important thing is to get rid of Mahmoud Abbas. He is running a regime of corruption that encompasses everything.”
In none of these instances did Liberman say anything about physically getting rid of Abbas.
Regarding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, PMW was unable to locate any quote similar to the one attributed to him by PA TV.
