PLO and Mahmoud Abbas mourn the death of Islamic Jihad terrorist leader

On Saturday, former Islamic Jihad terror leader Ramadan Shallah died after a long illness in Beirut.

During his time as leader of the terror group, some 235 Israelis and visitors to Israel were killed in over 60 attacks that Islamic Jihad took credit for.

Mahmoud Abbas and the PLO are praising the terrorist responsible for killing hundreds.

Abbas called Shallah’s brother and offered condolences, saying that Shallah was a great national figure and a great fighter for the nation. He expressed wishes that the murderer dwell in Paradise.

The Executive Committee of the PLO, led by Abbas, issued a statement extolling Shallah’s “life full of giving and struggle and adhering to the national principles,” adding that he “worked to establish the rules of national action and jihad in a march of effort, giving and sacrifice, adhering to the rules of national and unitary action.”

In short, they are praising his terrorism.

You will never find the “peace loving” EU or UN say a negative word about the PLO or Mahmoud Abbas even when they show that they support the worst terrorists and terror attacks. These statements of support for terror and of a mass murderer are proof that even the “moderate” Palestinian leaders never opposed violence and they celebrate terror attacks and terrorists every single day. Their lukewarm opposition to terror today is tactical, not moral, and they explicitly say this all the time  - but most Westerners don’t want to listen.
