Fayyad defending the keffiyeh

Firas Press reports:

Prime Minister Dr. Salam Fayyad, the Secretary General of the President Tayeb Abdel Rahim, a number of members of the Executive Committee of the PLO and the Central Committee of the Fatah movement today launched a Campaign for the Keffiyeh and the Palestinian Dabka.

Fayyad and Abdul Rahim participated in the launch of five balloons with pictures of the martyr President Yasser Arafat to the sky. The balloons lifted a scarf 225 square meters in size, with the participation of hundreds of citizens from different provinces.

Palestinian Arabs must be very unsure about their own supposedly ancient culture if they need to bring in major politicians (and one dead one) to strengthen their ties to a headscarf.

Apparently, the Keffiyeh Yisraelit is really getting under their skin.

Remember how upset Jews were when Palestinian Arabs started eating lots of matzoh this year? Remember all those popular songs and editorials calling on Jews worldwide to defend their Passover cardboard/food?

Exactly.
