Fatah official calls for killing Israelis: Fatah must “dish out twice as much as they have received”

Live broadcast of funerals of terrorists killed in a gun battle initiated by terrorist Abd Al-Fattah Kharousha, who murdered 2 Israeli brothers.

Fatah Tubas Secretary Mahmoud Sawafta: “The dark arms must rise up to dish out [to the occupation] twice as much as they have received. The arms of the Fatah members and our entire Palestinian people must deliver their blow to the occupation, its forces, and the settler herds without exception, because this occupation only understands the language of force.”

The expression “to dish out twice as much as they’ve received” echoes a statement by PA and Fatah Chairman Abbas who after Israel killed three terrorists who had already carried out a number of terror attacks and were planning another imminent attack, called on Palestinians to “dish out to them [Israel] twice as much as we’ve received.” [Sawa, independent Palestinian news agency, Feb. 10, 2022]
