Fatah glorifies terrorists as Martyrs and calls for funds to be given to their families
The Fatah Advisory Council held a meeting on Nov. 23, 2014, during a period of high tension in Jerusalem. In the months of October and November alone, six terror attacks took place that claimed the lives of 11 (see note for details). The Fatah council referred the terrorists who were killed in these attacks with the term of highest honor, “Shahids” – Martyrs:
“The Fatah Advisory Council concluded its eighth session yesterday [Nov. 23, 2014]. The session lasted two days, November 22-23, and was held in the [PA] Presidential Headquarters in Ramallah under the heading ‘Session of the Martyrs of the Homeland, the Martyrs of Jerusalem and the Martyrs of Al-Aqsa – the Martyrs’ Session of the Fatah Advisory Council.’… The president [Mahmoud Abbas] said that it was our people’s moral, national and religious right to defend Al-Aqsa and the Islamic and Christian holy places by opposing these thieving attackers, behind whom stands the Netanyahu government… The President [Mahmoud Abbas] added: ‘I salute our people that stand resolute in defense of Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa, and say to them: “We are all willing to sacrifice ourselves for Al-Aqsa; we are all willing to sacrifice ourselves for Jerusalem.”’…
The Fatah Advisory Council saluted the heroic mass uprising and the brave spirit [with] which [it] is confronting, today, with chest bared, the settlement attack against Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Likewise, it [the Council] said that our youth, women and men in Jerusalem are proving that they are carrying out Ribat (religious conflict/war over land claimed to be Islamic) in Jerusalem and its environs until Judgment Day…
The Fatah Advisory Council demanded that funds be urgently allocated for the families that sacrificed the Martyrs (Shahids) of liberty (i.e., the terrorists from Jerusalem) who were arrested and whose homes have been destroyed by the Israeli occupier. Likewise, [the Council] said they were, more than anyone else, entitled to our support, aid and unwavering solidarity, given that they are standing resolute for our future in Palestine, this historic homeland, besides which we have no other homeland.”

Note: Regarding the funds to be given to families of “Martyrs whose homes have been destroyed,” it should be noted that the only homes destroyed belonged to murderers of civilians.
