Released spy praises terrorist murderers as “heroes” and “torch that lit the path”

Text and video posted on the official Fatah Facebook page; the video shows released prisoner and terrorist Sidqi Al-Maqt who committed espionage against Israel

Sidqi Al-Maqt: "Let me bow my head before the Martyr leaders in the ranks of the Palestinian revolution, and foremost among them Martyr, commander, and symbol [former PLO Chairman and PA President] Yasser Arafat who began the modern Palestinian revolution, and all of the Martyr leaders – 'Abu Jihad' Khalil Al-Wazir (i.e., terrorist, responsible for murder of 125), over whom we cried in the occupation's prisons, in the Ashkelon Prison, Abu Iyad (i.e., Salah Khalaf, terrorist responsible for murder of at least 13), and all of the leaders. Let me bless all of the heroes of the Palestinian struggle throughout Palestinian history. They have been the torch that has lit the path for us. Let me bless with a special blessing, as I cannot leave her out, heroic Martyr Dalal Mughrabi who commanded the coastal operation and stood before the enemy, this Israeli enemy, [then Israeli army commander Ehud] Barak who takes pride in his false military achievement. We say to this criminal: The Israeli people despises you, Barak, while we sing the praise of Dalal Mughrabi over the decades in the occupation's prisons, Palestine, the Golan, Syria, and everywhere. Her name will remain eternal alongside the names of all of our mighty Martyrs, the heroes of the Palestinian struggle… The enemies of Syria are the same enemies of Palestine. The conspiracy has now become clear in a way that leaves no room for doubt. Those who have conspired against Palestine are the same as those who stand behind the so-called 'deal of the century’ (i.e., US President Donald Trump's Middle East peace plan; see note below)."

Al-Maqt spoke at an event in his honor at the PLO Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs.
