Al-Hadath TV interviewer: "You've announced that you won't participate [in the Warsaw Conference], and described it as a knife in the back..."
Senior Fatah official Jibril Rajoub: "[If] there will be cocktail parties and toasts with [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu and the Arabs we will indeed view it as a mistake and a knife [in the back]... They are welcoming Netanyahu in Warsaw in order to remind us of the Holocaust and Auschwitz. In every city in Palestine, from Rafah to Jenin, there is an Israeli Auschwitz to massacre Palestinians."
