Fatah official promotes violence with song: “A rifle will aim, fire, and scatter with its bullets, it will avenge Jenin”

Fatah Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi posted an edited video of him speaking during a visit to Jenin during Israel’s 2023 Operation Home and Garden, which targeted the terror infrastructure in the city – see note below.

Text on screen: “A visit to proud Jenin and its heroic [refugee] camp, on the second day of blessed Eid Al-Adha, to be among our people, the parents of the Martyrs, to convey a message of loyalty.”

Fatah Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi: “It’s an honor for me to be in the Jenin [refugee] camp today [July 3, 2023]. Our [refugee] camps, villages, and cities are always at the height of struggle, the height of giving, always at the height of positioning the leaders and positioning young fighters who are sacrificing their souls and their freedom for Palestine, until we establish our Palestinian state on our Palestinian land, and its capital is Jerusalem.”

A song is played while photos of Tirawi meeting people in Jenin are shown:

Lyrics: “O Jenin, gird your strength
Your rifle swears not to deviate [from its target]
Push on the robber (i.e., Israel) like a sword
O Jenin, city of heroism
Even if [the enemy] imposes a lockdown on all the neighborhoods, and there are aerial attacks on us
[In Jenin] you will only find resolve, O symbol of manliness
A rifle will aim, fire, and scatter
With its bullets it will thunder, it will avenge Jenin
O Jenin, gird your strength
Your rifle swears not to deviate [from its target]
Push on the robber like a sword
O Jenin, city of heroism
O voice of the heroes, O roar of the men
O battlefield
Jenin will erase you”
