Fatah Secretary calls Israel "the new Nazis" while condemning the Negev Summit
Official PA TV program Topic of the Day
Fatah Central Committee Secretary Jibril Rajoub: “In this awful Arab period, when the summits are being held with the participation of [Israeli Prime Minister Naftali] Bennett, this fascist, this terrorist, who is being welcomed in all the Arab capitals while Palestine was not on the agenda of these summits, whether [they are held] here or there (refers to regional visits and March 2022 Negev Summit attended by Egypt, Bahrain, Morocco, and the UAE as part of the Abraham Accords; see note below -Ed.)… I think that the timing was important, and the visit [by Jordanian King Abdullah II in Ramallah] is important and historic, and as I said it is a message to these meetings (i.e., Abdullah visited Ramallah the same day as the Negev Summit, which Jordan did not attend). O my brother, is it logical that they are gathering today in Sde Boker [in the Negev]? I don’t know if they did not go to read the Al-Fatiha [Sura] at the grave of [first Israeli Prime Minister David] Ben Gurion or what they went to do. In other words, it is as if the Palestinians do not exist…
By the way, the Israelis are looking for words I said, and it is said that I said of the occupation that they are new Nazis (refers to his statements at Palestine Marathon opening ceremony on March 18, 2022 -Ed.) – and if not, then what are you? Tell us, explain to us. You get me? And now they are asking to remove me from the organizations and the like.”
