Fatah official: Terrorist prisoners are “a badge of honor” for “every Palestinian”

Follow-up Commission for Prisoners' Affairs Director and Fatah member Amin Shuman: "[The prisoners] merit to be a symbol for all our Palestinian people who appreciate the prisoner (i.e., terrorist) who is serving more than 20 years and even 25 years, and even the administrative detainees, the female prisoners, the children, and all the models of the prisoners' movement inside the Israeli prisons… They are a badge of honor on the forehead of every Palestinian and Arab and every free person in this world."
