U.S. "Palestinian Youth Movement" Rallies to Glorify Jenin Terrorists

The rallies glorifying Palestinian terrorists are consistent with PYM ideology

They were killed after opening fire on Israeli security forces who entered the Jenin refugee camp last week to thwart an imminent, major Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) attack against Israelis. At least two rallies scheduled for Friday call for "Glory to Our Martyrs in Jenin."

The rallies in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. are led by the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), a virulently anti-Israel group that has a history of whitewashing terrorism and painting Palestinians as victims.

The Israeli forces came under immediate fire during the raid and IDF surveillance video shows Palestinians tossing explosives and firebombs from rooftops.

Four PIJ terrorists and two al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades members were among the nine people killed in the resulting firefight, according to the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center.

The rallies glorifying Palestinian terrorists are consistent with PYM ideology.

In fact, it has announced two upcoming back-to-back events in New York City and Michigan that further glorify Palestinian terrorists and propagate the myth of Palestinian victimhood.

On Feb. 11, PYM's New York chapter hosts the screening of a film extolling 1970s Palestinian terrorism. A day later, PYM's Michigan branch and the radical Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) team up to host a speech by notorious Palestinian activist and Israel basher Mohammed El-Kurd at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor.

El-Kurd has praised Palestinian terrorists and supports the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel.

"Israeli occupation forces brutalizing Palestinians during a nonviolent protest against ethnic cleansing today," El-Kurd wrote during the May 2021 Gaza War. "Non-violence doesn't work. The only solution is sanctioning and boycotting this terrorist nation."

PYM is a radical transnational Palestinian movement with 14 active chapters in the United States and Canada. It works alongside other extremist anti-Israel groups, including the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), Within Our Lifetime (WOL), Samidoun, and others to attack Israel and Zionism.

Rejectionist Agenda

And PYM's radicalism doesn't end at eulogizing terrorists. The group is ideologically opposed to a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. And like the revised Hamas charter, the group envisions a Palestinian state from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea that would mean erasing Israel off the map.

After the Trump administration unveiled its blueprint for peace between the Israelis and Palestinians, one that creates a Palestinian state and protects Israeli security requirements in the Jordan Valley, PYM called it "nothing more than an extention [sic] and consolidation of the Zionist colonial project."

"We will continue resisting until the land is rightfully ours once more, and until our people secure their right of return," the post added. "From the river to the sea."

PYM also advocates on behalf of people convicted of terrorism charges within the United States. In a Nov. 22 Facebook post, it called "on the Palestinian and Arab community" and their allies to work to free the "Holy Land Foundation 5."

"Time and time again, the US and the Zionist entity have attempted to quell, intimidate, and disband Palestinian organizations from fighting for the freedom of our political prisoners," said the post. "By continuing to imprison the HLF5 despite their being held on bogus charges, the US is attempting to make an example out of the five men and, in doing so, deter our community in the diaspora from supporting our people in Palestine."

Five senior officials of the Holy Land Foundation were sentenced to long prison terms in May 2009 for illegally funneling more than $12 million to Hamas. Dozens of exhibits linked the foundation to Hamas, including events featuring Hamas leaders. A 2011 appellate ruling upheld the convictions.
