PA condemns Arab member of Israeli Parliament for calling terrorists ‎‎“terrorists”‎ Author: Nan Jacques Zilberdik, Palestinian Media Watch An Arab member of the Israeli Parliament, Mansour Abbas, has been ‎‎“condemned” by the Palestinian Authority for having made “embarrassing and shameful ‎statements” about Palestinian terrorist prisoners, who – according to the PA – ‎are not terrorists, but are “heroic.”‎ ‎ ‎ In a recent interview to Israeli TV Channel 12, Mansour Abbas said: “Placing ‎me as a terror supporter or embracer of terrorists – that never was. Whoever ‎published that I visited the prison and met with terrorists and embraced them ‎‎– that never happened.” [Feb. 4, 2021]‎ Following this interview, Director of PLO Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs, ‎Qadri Abu Bakr, condemned Mansour Abbas, stressing that Palestinian ‎terrorist prisoners – among them murderers – “are nothing but symbols of ‎honor, heroism, and pride.” Abu Bakr further emphasized that terrorism is the ‎way to ‘liberate Jerusalem’: “Mansour should be ashamed of himself and this ‎statement. He must examine history and know well that the path to ‎liberating Jerusalem is paved only by the sacrifices of our pure-‎hearted Martyrs, the years of the lives of our brave prisoners, the ‎pains of our heroic wounded… They are nothing but symbols of ‎honor, heroism, and pride.” Source: Palestinian Media Watch ??
