Palestinian Authority libel: Israel’s “next step” is subordination of entire Arab world
Fatah official denies Oct. 7 massacre: “Israel attacked the Gaza Strip. No one attacked it”
Abbas’ advisor: Israel is US’ “police officer” and goal is to subordinate entire Arab world to Israel
Abbas’ advisor: Israel’s “target” is not just Hamas but “tearing apart the Palestinian people”
Fatah official: Israel’s “next step” is to “harm the PA” and “annihilate the West Bank after the Gaza Strip”
Fatah official: US, not Israel, is waging war to “slaughter the Palestinian people”
Fatah official: Israel is a US military base to prevent Arab unity
Although terror organization Hamas launched the current war against Israel when they brutally attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and murdered over 1,000 Israelis, the Palestinian Authority presents the ongoing war solely as “Israeli aggression.” Some even allege that “no one attacked” Israel! Instead, PA leaders present Israel’s self-defense and response to being attacked by Hamas to Palestinians as part of a greater Israeli “plan” to “tear apart the Palestinian people,” “uproot” and “expel” it, and eventually subjugate not only the Palestinians but Arab states as well. The US is also being demonized in the PA’s libelous narrative as “the one waging the war, and not Israel.”
The following are examples of PA leaders disseminating this libel to Palestinians:
Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki: “This talk about Israel’s right to defend itself. Where did Israel attack? Israel attacked the Gaza Strip. No one attacked it.”

Abbas’ advisor: Israel is US’ “police officer” and goal is to subordinate entire Arab world
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash: “If, Heaven forbid, Palestine will fall, and the Gaza Strip will fall, and Israel will realize its goals in the Gaza Strip and afterwards will move on to realize similar goals in the West Bank, it will then be the turn of other Arab capitals and of other Arab states. And Arab states will become subordinates to the American police officer named Israel in the region.”

Abbas’ advisor demonizes Israel: Israel’s “target” is not just Hamas but “tearing apart the Palestinian people”
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash: “The occupation (i.e., Israel) falsely claims that it is directing its blows against the Hamas Movement. But this is a lie… Those whom the occupation is targeting is you, us, these children. The children of the West Bank are being targeted like the children of the Gaza Strip, like the children of Jerusalem, like all children of the Palestinian people, like all members of the Palestinian people. The intent is not just to uproot Hamas, not at all. There are many proofs of this… The target is the Palestinian people, the target is tearing apart the Palestinian people, the target is uprooting the Palestinian people, it is removing the Palestinian people from its land, it is expelling the Palestinian people from Palestine…They are determined to remove us from our land, and we are determined to stay in it. They have failed at this for 75 years, at uprooting the Palestinian people from Palestine, and they will fail, Allah willing. This land will only be ours… this is our homeland and not their homeland. This is our land and not their land, this is our history and not their history. If someone needs to leave and go out of our land, it is them! They are the ones who need to leave. They need to leave, while we are staying here.”
