Tomorrow's Fatah leaders: Students glorify Hamas' terror massacre on Israel
- The future of Fatah's leadership is being further radicalized at institutes of higher education
- Students from An-Najah National University in Nablus support Hamas
The following was actually posted on October 7 as Hamas was committing its barbaric massacre on Israeli civilian communities in the south of Israel:
The image shows terrorists in military uniform displaying either the green headbands of Hamas’ military wing, the Izz A-Din Al-Qassam Brigades, or yellow headbands of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, the military wing of PA Chairman Abbas’ Fatah party. Together, these terror groups share the back of a pickup truck and a common objective:

A quote from the Quran on the image is rich in analogy to the current situation:
Text on image: “Two God-fearing men—who had been blessed by Allah—said, ‘Surprise them through the gate. If you do, you will certainly prevail. Put your trust in Allah if you are truly believers’ [Quran 5:23, Sahih International translation].”
"Two God-fearing men" refers to the fighters of Hamas and of Fatah, who are "blessed by Allah" as they "surprise them through the gate," which is how Hamas violated Israel's sovereign territory, when it breached Israel's security fence to attack the country.
The image below shows a statement by the Fatah Shabiba Student Movement at An-Najah National University. It is a declaration of support for Gaza and the Palestinian workers from Gaza who are now stuck in Israel, unable to cross back into Gaza. Additionally, the text calls on Palestinians to disseminate pro-Palestinian information in various languages. Most notably, the text exhorts Palestinian residents of the West Bank to "avenge the blood of our heroic Martyrs" by attacks at "points of friction" – in other words, to carry out terror attacks.

Text: “‘Fight in the cause of Allah only against those who wage war against you, but do not exceed the limits. Allah does not like transgressors’ [Quran 2:190, Sahih International translation]…
We in the [Fatah] Shabiba Student Movement at An-Najah National University call on you for general preparedness in all cities of the West Bank, to go to the points of friction with the occupation, to avenge the blood of our heroic Martyrs, and to support the resistance in the proud Gaza Strip (refers to Hamas’ terror war on Israel; see note below -Ed.).”

The two images above carry the logo of the Fatah Shabiba Student Movement at An-Najah National University, which consists of a coat of arms featuring on its left a raised fist in the shape of the PA map of “Palestine” that calls all of Israel together with the PA areas as “Palestine” and an image of the Dome of the Rock and the keffiyeh (Arab headdress) pattern. The posts from the Fatah Shabiba Student Movement at An-Najah National University which follow below in addition to displaying the movement's logo,bear the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades logo of crossed rifles and a grenade above the Dome of the Rock, with Palestinian flags below it.
Text at the top of the logo: "So fight them and Allah will punish them at your hands, put them to shame, help you overcome them, and soothe the hearts of the believers" [Quran 9:14, Sahih International translation].
The image shows masked terrorists in black uniforms wearing yellow Fatah headbands and holding Kalashnikov assault rifles while marching in formation.

Hamas war on Israel October 2023 - At least 1,200 Israelis, including over 1,000 civilians, were murdered and over 4,800 wounded, in addition to approximately 244 who were abducted into the Gaza Strip (including 110 later released or liberated and at least 26 later killed), in a Hamas terror war that began when approximately 3,000 Hamas terrorists broke through Israel's security fence at the Gaza Strip border and launched a surprise attack, taking control of several Israeli towns and attacking a music festival on the Jewish holiday of Simchat Torah, which fell on the Sabbath, Oct. 7, 2023. During the massacre the terrorists tortured, raped, shot, beheaded, and burned their victims alive, murdering entire families and leaving at least 21 children without parents. Hamas terrorists also fired at least 5,000 rockets at Israeli population centers. In response, Israel launched Operation Iron Swords to counter the Hamas terror threat. Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon joined Hamas' terror war starting from the following day, attacking Israel from the north. Occasional rocket launches and shootings continued from Lebanon throughout the war. A ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal began on Nov. 24, 2023, in which Israel agreed to release 150 terrorist prisoners, pause drone surveillance in the Gaza Strip, and allow movement between the northern and southern Gaza Strip, in return for 50 Israeli female and child hostages held by Hamas. The deal was subsequently extended with additional releases, until Hamas violated the agreement and resumed attacking on Dec. 1, 2023.
