PA TV praises Hamas terror massacre on Israel, happy about murder victims and hostages who are all “settlers”
On Saturday, when Hamas launched its evil massacre on Israeli citizens, murdering, raping, and kidnapping civilians as well as mutilating their dead bodies, official PA TV broadcast the PA’s support for and celebration of the attack via its Gaza Strip reporter.
In a live broadcast, the PA TV reporter gleefully explained to viewers what a “blow” Hamas had delivered Israel, a blow Israel “will yet remember.” Calling the massacre of what at the time of writing has reached over 1,200 murdered and 2,900 wounded, the PA TV reporter specifically mentioned that Hamas had “killed people” and taken “dozens of captives.” He took pride in the fact that Hamas succeeded in capturing “both dead bodies, soldiers, and settlers” – i.e., Israeli civilians living in sovereign Israel:
Official PA TV reporter in the Gaza Strip: “Today Gaza landed a blow that this occupation will yet remember… Today the Palestinian people had its say, and the Resistance (i.e., Hamas = Islamic Resistance Movement) responded with all the force at its disposal... Today Palestine stands united against the barbaric aggression that the Israeli occupation is committing… This operation (i.e., Hamas terror massacre) disrupted the Israeli calculations and history will mark it. This occupation (i.e., Israel) will know well that the Palestinian people is in its land and needs to take its right to self-determination by force... Today the world states are taking action to save this occupation from this military operation in which [Israel suffered] killed people and captives. We are talking about dozens of detainees and captives, both dead bodies and captive soldiers and settlers… Today they are imprisoned in the Gaza Strip.”

This report is just one among many confirmations that the Palestinian Authority and the Fatah Movement, both headed by Mahmoud Abbas, have – once again – chosen to side with evil. PMW has exposed that Fatah has called for more terror and urged Palestinians in the West Bank, Jerusalem, and inside Israel to join the war against “the enemy,” “strike the sons of apes and pigs (i.e., Jews),” and “slaughter everyone Israeli” – in what Abbas calls "self-defense” against “Israeli aggression.”
