Fatah official glorifies terrorist killers as “great leaders”
"Fatah Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi said: 'Our great leaders of the revolution, Yasser Arafat, Abu Iyad, Abu Jihad, Abu Ali Mustafa, and the other great leaders who died as Martyrs (Shahids), passed the flag on to us without foregoing their land and their cause. We shall remain loyal to their commitment. Future generations will receive the flag, which will continue to fly in their hands until our independent Palestinian state arises, and it [the flag] will be raised over the walls, the mosques and the churches of Jerusalem.'
He added, 'No leader has been or will be born who will relinquish a single inch of our land, or a single one of our people's rights. There is no one among us who will give up even a single grain of the ground of Jerusalem.'"
