“To war that will… set the Zionist's soul on fire” - girl recites poem to imprisoned terrorist grandfather on PA TV

Granddaughter of terrorist prisoner Ismail Masalmeh: “I am a Palestinian, my name is Palestinian

I've etched my name on all the town squares...

Saladin (i.e., Muslim conqueror of Jerusalem), calls to me from the depths of my heart

All my Arabness calls me to vengeance and liberation...

Thousands of prisoners and thousands who are jailed

Call to this great nation

They say: To Jerusalem, the [first] direction of prayer in the faith [Islam]

To war that will smash the oppression and set the Zionist's soul on fire ”

…

Official PA TV host: “Well done to this Palestinian girl.”

The show hosts the granddaughter of terrorist prisoner Ismail Masalmeh, who was sentenced to 27 years, released in the Shalit prisoner exchange deal, and then rearrested – PMW was unable to determine the nature of his crimes.

The original words of the poem call to “destroy the Zionist’s soul”

Shalit prisoner exchange deal - In October 2011, the Israeli government agreed to release 1,027 Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prison in exchange for Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, who had been held hostage by Hamas for more than 5 years. Dozens of the terrorists released in that deal were rearrested in June 2014, following the abduction of Israeli teens Eyal Yifrach, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Fraenkel, 16.
