Official PA TV program Topic of the Day, episode on Palestinian women for International Women’s Day, hosting District Governor of Ramallah and El-Bireh Laila Ghannam

District Governor of Ramallah and El-Bireh Laila Ghannam: “March 8, [International Women’s Day,] is a symbolic day for women – let us wish them love throughout the year and not just on March 8. Perhaps the activities are concentrated in March in general – March of women, March of mothers, March of Dalal Mughrabi (i.e., terrorist who led murder of 37, 12 of them children), March of the Karameh [battle], and of the land, March of spring. But women are the spring throughout the year and the seasons, particularly the Palestinian women.”

Dalal Mughrabi led the most lethal terror attack in Israel’s history, known as the Coastal Road massacre, in 1978, when she and other Fatah terrorists hijacked a bus on Israel's Coastal Highway, murdering 37 civilians, 12 of them children, and wounding over 70.

The Karameh battle, or Al-Karameh - On March 21, 1968, Israeli army forces attacked the town of Karameh in Jordan, where Fatah terrorists had been launching attacks on Israel. Although Israel prevailed militarily, Arafat used the event for propaganda purposes, declaring the battle a great victory that erased the disgrace of the 1967 Six Day War defeat.
