During the video, a small child is seen saluting the picture of terrorist Al-Nabulsi:
A narrator praises terrorist Al-Nabulsi as a “model of heroism” and as having left behind “an eternal revolutionary school, whose students are self-sacrificing fighters who believe in Allah.” For these Fatah soldiers, allegiance to the rifle is “sacred”:
Narrator: “The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades – Palestine make sure to commemorate the memory of their men in their unique military way, so that they will remain as models of heroism in the memory of the generations. Martyr Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi left us while leaving behind for us an eternal revolutionary school, whose students are self-sacrificing fighters who believe in Allah, and who love the homeland. On the anniversary of Martyr fighter Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi’s ascent [to Heaven], our brigades prepared an army bearing his name, and it swore that adherence to the rifle is sacred – out of loyalty to his last will… May Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi remain a legend of glory and honor in the history of the [Palestinian] cause.”

An audio recording was also played at the ceremony of terrorist Al-Nabulsi’s mother congratulating the participants:
Audio recording of terrorist Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi’s mother: “O members of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, this is a great [source of] pride that your military course bears the name of Martyr fighter Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi. This is a great [source of] pride that the Martyrs are your permanent headline… Blessings to your fighting hands, which are working diligently for the sake of Allah… From your sister and mother, the mother of Martyr Jihad fighter Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi.”

Fatah’s military training course named after terrorist Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi, was apparently held in late December 2022. Fatah’s Bethlehem Branch posted the video from the course ceremony on Aug. 9, 2023, for the one-year anniversary of terrorist Al-Nabulsi’s death.
Palestinian Media Watch has exposed numerous times that the PA and Fatah routinely glorify and praise terrorists. Another recent Fatah “hero” and “legend” was terrorist shooter Samih Abu Al-Wafa who ambushed Israeli soldiers. This video posted by Fatah shows pictures of terrorist Samih Abu Al-Wafa, including one of him leaning out of a window while another man holds his waist and aiming an assault rifle to shoot at Israeli soldiers. A song glorifying him as “hero” and “legend” is played in the background:
Lyrics: “The people asks: Who is that, the masked man in the picture?
That is our hero Samih Abu Al-Wafa, the legend.
He appeared with his weapon from the window, with his masked face.
How beautiful are the bullets of the confrontation, when Samih advanced.
Our brigade has men, they make our land shake”
Posted text: “Our wish is that if a Martyr goes out from us, the people will say ‘Allahu Akbar’ (i.e., “Allah is greatest”) and follow his footsteps.
The lion of the ambushes, Martyr commander Samih Abu Al-Wafa (i.e., terrorist, shot at Israeli soldiers; died in 2023)
May Allah receive him – one of the heroes of the heroic Al-Ansar Mosque ambush (refers to Palestinian terrorists ambushing Israeli forces in Jenin, wounding 7 with an explosive on June 19, 2023; 7 Palestinians, mostly terrorists, were killed and dozens wounded in the ensuing gun battle)

Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi – Palestinian terrorist and member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades (Fatah’s military wing) who was responsible for a series of shooting attacks targeting Israeli soldiers. Al-Nabulsi resisted arrest and shot at Israeli soldiers who returned fire and killed him in Nablus on Aug. 9, 2022. Al-Nabulsi was a member of a Fatah terror cell that was attacked while planning an imminent attack on Feb. 8, 2022; while Al-Nabulsi escaped, three other members of the cell were shot and killed: Adham Mabrouka Al-Shishani, Muhammad Al-Dakhil, and Ashraf Mubaslat.
2023 Operation Home and Garden - an Israeli counter-terror operation in Jenin that lasted from July 3-5, 2023. The operation targeted terror infrastructure in the city, and particularly the Islamic Jihad-affiliated terror group the Jenin Brigade, after 50 terror attacks had originated from the city and 19 terrorists had fled to it since the start of 2023. Israeli soldier David Yehuda Yitzhak, 23, was killed during the operation, while at least 18 Palestinian terrorists were killed and over 300 terror suspects were arrested. During the operation, Israeli forces attacked a terror headquarters located next to a medical clinic and two schools, one of them belonging to UNRWA. Several weapons factories were discovered containing hundreds of explosives and weapons caches. Terrorists opened fire on Israeli forces from within a mosque in the Jenin refugee camp, and after gaining control of the site, the Israeli forces discovered weapons caches including explosives and entrances to underground tunnels in the mosque's basement.
