Fatah "welcomes" synagogue terror attack and "escorts the Martyrs (i.e., terrorists)... to Paradise"
On Nov. 18, 2014, two Arab terrorists, Ghassan and Uday Abu Jamal from East Jerusalem, entered a synagogue in Jerusalem and attacked worshippers with guns, knives and axes, killing 4 worshippers and a police officer. The terrorists were killed in an exchange of fire with Israeli Security Forces that arrived on the scene.
Speaking in the name of MPs from Abbas' Fatah movement, spokesman Jamal Tirawi glorifed the attack and the terrorists who carried it out:
"Fatah's parliamentary faction welcomed the Jerusalem operation (i.e., the Jerusalem synagogue terror attack), which was carried out by two residents from Jabal Mukkaber, and caused the deaths of four settlers. These statements were made by Fatah faction spokesman and member of PA Parliament (Legislative Council) Jamal Tirawi, who emphasized that the faction welcomed the Martyrdom-seeking (Istish'had) operation in Jerusalem, and was escorting the Martyrs (Shahids) of the Abu Jamal family to Paradise.
Fatah's parliamentary faction emphasized that this operation was carried out as part of the Palestinian response to the occupation's massacres and incitement, its invasions of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and prohibition of Muslims from entering it; the settlers' rampages [carried out] under the protection of a well-trained occupying army in the West Bank and Jerusalem, and to the oppression and racism against our people in the occupied interior (i.e., Israel)."
