Remember Jenin? When Palestinian Arab officials, and reporters, claimed that Israel had massacred hundreds or even thousands of innocent Arab civilians and buried them in mass graves? Where a Palestinian Arab filmmaker corroborated the massacre stories in a movie?
And how it was all a huge lie?
Well, guess who has changed their narrative about Jenin: Islamic Jihad!
Now, Jenin is no longer the scene of a massive slaughter of innocent women and children, but a scene of an epic battle where Palestinian Arabs defeated the hated Zionist enemy.
On the ninth anniversary of event, the PIJ-oriented Palestine Today has no less than four articles about the heroism of the martyrs of Jenin. One describes the pride and joy of a mother of one of the fighters who is now in prison, one has an Islamic Jihad sheikh bragging about how Jenin was a "great victory for the Palestinian people," one shows photos of the heroic fighters during the battle, and a fourth interviews another PIJ leader about how wonderful the battle was.
Amazing how the poor victims have turned into the admired victors.
