The Safa Palestinian news agency published this poster on Sunday:
This is celebrating the terror attack on the Seafood Market in Tel Aviv on March 5, 2002:
The Seafood Market attack was a Palestinian shooting and grenade Terrorist attack on the Seafood Market restaurant in Tel Aviv, Israel, on 5 March 2002. Palestinian terrorist Ibrahim Hasouna murdered three Israelis, including a Druze police officer, and wounded 35.[1]The Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade claimed responsibility for the attack.An Israeli court found Marwan Barghouti, head of Tanzim, guilty of directing this attack.The attack occurred in the early morning, at which time the Seafood market restaurant was crowded with people gathered for an Oriental music evening and a bachelorette party.At 2:10 AM, Hasouna opened fire. Shooting at diners sitting near the windows with an M16 rifle, he emptied two magazines. According to eyewitness Gilli Cohen, "people started to push their way to the bathrooms, and there was mass hysteria". He also threw two fragmentation grenades at people escaping the restaurant, though they did not detonate. Hasouna then headed for the "Mifgash Hasteakim" restaurant next door, pulling out a knife and stabbing at police officers and civilians attempting to restrain him, killing a police officer, but was eventually shot dead.
This is one of the attacks that put Marwan Barghouti in prison. That terrorist is now probably the most popular political figure among Palestinians; polls show that he would get more votes than anyone from Hamas or Fatah.
