PA Governor invokes intifadas and terrorists in call to stay home for Coronavirus
Official PA TV Live, interview with Ramallah and El-Bireh District Governor Laila Ghannam on the Coronavirus pandemic
Ramallah and El-Bireh District Governor Laila Ghannam: “Stay at home so that we can finish with this matter. Remember the first Intifada (i.e., Palestinian wave of violence and terror against Israel, approximately 200 Israelis murdered, 1987-1993), the second Intifada (i.e., PA terror campaign 2000-2005, more than 1,100 Israelis murdered), the siege. Remember the siege against [former PLO Chairman and PA President] Martyr Yasser Arafat, remember the prisoners – Maher Younes, Karim Younes(i.e., terrorist cousins who together murdered 1), Nael Barghouti (i.e., terrorist, murdered 1 with an accomplice),Marwan Barghouti(i.e., terrorist, orchestrated three attacks in which 5 were murdered) – dozens of years they limited their freedom for Palestine. Let us limit our freedom so that people can go out and live securely in Palestine.”
