The official Facebook page of the Fatah political faction, headed by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, on Monday lauded Hezbollah official and arch-terrorist Samir Kuntar, assassinated on Saturday night in Damascus, pro-Israel blogger Elder of Ziyon reported.
Fatah uploaded a video clip of a speech Kuntar gave in Lebanon, to coincide with his funeral there on Monday. In the video, Kuntar says, I returned today from Palestine, but believe me
I am prepared to go back to Palestine. Among the comments below the posting are sentiments such as, Allah rest his soul.
...This is an extreme case where every civilized person must be appalled by a terrorist who took credit for killing a four-year-old child, said Dr. Dan Schueftan, director of the National Security Studies Center at Haifa University. Schueftan, an expert on Mideast affairs, was referring to Kuntars particularly heinous slaughter of an Israeli family in Nahariya in 1979, when he was 16 years old. But, Schueftan told The Algemeiner, It turns out that nothing is too low or too barbaric even for the mainstream of the Palestinian national movement to adulate when it comes to killing innocent Jews. Though Fatah at the moment is reluctant to use massive terrorism, for fear of Israeli counter-measures, it still educates its public to call a child-murderer a hero and a saint.

(3,967 posts)Smashing the four year old's skull was just evil. Thank you for pointing out what the Palestinian leadership had to say.
The fact that "Top Palestinians" call this dog "a defender of freedom" says everything about them -- that they celebrate evil -- and nothing about him (they would call Jeffrey Dahmer a defender of freedom if he had killed Jews) or about freedom actually.
