It shows three weapons superimposed on the map of British Mandate Palestine, clearly indicating that the desire of this organization is to militarily destroy Israel.
This has remained the logo of Mahmoud Abbas' "moderate" Fatah party through the decades - even after Oslo, even after supposedly accepting Israel's right to exist, even after its former leader Yasir Arafat declared the end to armed attacks.
I have never seen a single Palestinian suggest that this logo be changed to reflect the new, peaceful nature of the supposedly former terror group. I haven't seen any Arabic articles about how offensive this logo is or how inappropriate it is to maintain a logo of destruction after accepting peace.
Keeping that logo says far more about the platform of Mahmoud Abbas' party than any number of interviews broadcast on CNN.
The designer of the logo was Nazir Nabaa. Nabaa died yesterday at the age of 78.
And he was from Syria.
This is appropriate, since the pioneer of fake Palestinian nationalism, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem Amin al-Husseini, only came to that idea after his original intention of an Arab Palestine becoming part of Syria fell through by the Sykes-Picot agreement.
Just like the Palestinian flag - based on a design by the same British Colonel Sykes - even Palestinian symbols aren't Palestinian.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
