Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction continues to praise and celebrate the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists against Israeli citizens, as the death toll from the terror group’s Oct. 7 massacre passes 1,300, with some 3,000 wounded and more than 100 hostages taken into the Gaza Strip.

Fatah’s Bethlehem Branch posted a video showing four images as a song plays in the background. One image portrays Israelis as a rat being trampled by a boot with the colors of the Palestinian flag on its sole:

Another is of a uniformed man paragliding onto the P.A. map of “Palestine,” referring to Hamas terrorists who paraglided into Israel during the launch of the terror group’s pogrom. The logo is of “The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades – the Wasps’ Nest.”

Another image shows uniformed terrorists holding assault rifles and sitting in a circle, apparently before setting out to conduct a terror attack. The logo is of “The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades – the Wasps’ Nest.”

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades logo includes crossed rifles and a grenade above the Dome of the Rock, with Palestinian flags below it. The text at the top of the logo reads: “So fight them and Allah will punish them at your hands, put them to shame, help you overcome them, and soothe the hearts of the believers” [Quran 9:14, Sahih International translation]. At the bottom is written: “The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades—the Wasps’ Nest”

This is a version of a story originally published by Palestinian Media Watch.

“Due to heightened tensions in the Middle East, the security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation.”
“The IDF will respond forcefully to any violation of the agreement,” said the Israeli military.
In its own version of the Palestinian “pay-for-slay” scheme, the terror group has leveraged state institutions to channel public funds.
IDF reservists’ rights, highway safety among the causes championed by the Likud legislator.
“The strikes are designed to further degrade Iranian military capabilities used to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,” CENTCOM stated.
“They see Jews as oppressors,” Doug Basler told JNS, accusing Kshama Sawant and another Democratic challenger of viewing Israel through a Marxist lens.
