Op-ed commemorates terrorist leaders as “eternal examples that our generations are again recreating”

Excerpt of an op-ed by Yahya Rabah, a regular columnist for the official PA daily

“Our memories fill us with hope and resolve, resistance and achievements. At the beginning is the anniversary of the assassination of our three leaders Abu Yusuf Al-Najjar (i.e., commander of operations of the Black September terror organization), Kamal Nasser, and Kamal Adwan (i.e., senior members of Black September), who after their assassination have constituted light, dawn, unending epics, and eternal examples in our lives that our generations are again recreating.

Afterwards is the 31st anniversary of the death of the Prince of the Martyrs Khalil Al-Wazir ‘Abu Jihad’ (i.e., terrorist responsible for murder of 125 Israelis), the First Bullet and the First Stone, who used to tell us: ‘We Palestinians have no time to cry, rather all of the time is for the next confrontation,’ and who taught us that the distance between our minds in our heads and our fingertips needs to be very short, and that we must carry out what we think in our minds with our fingertips.”
