Text on sign:“No to normalization”‎

Abbas’ Fatah is making sure Palestinian high school children are taught the PA policy ‎to reject peaceful relations with Israel. The PA message to its kids: No to any ‎normalization with Israel because it is “betrayal” - of terrorists and murderers.‎

Students at a high school for girls in Qalqilya participated in an event (photo above) ‎organized by Fatah’s Shabiba Student Movement during which the Shabiba ‎coordinator stressed to the girls that the PA leadership views normalization with Israel ‎as an act against “the blood of the tens of thousands of Martyrs” and the “heroic ‎prisoners” – i.e., terrorists and murderers of Israelis:‎

‎“Shabiba Student [Movement] coordinator of activities at the schools for girls ‎Hanaa Al-Haj Hassan emphasized the position of the Palestinian leadership ‎and the Palestinian people, which rejects normalization with the Israeli ‎occupation. She explained that normalization is a betrayal of the Palestinian ‎cause, of the blood of the tens of thousands of Martyrs, and of the sacrifices ‎of the hundreds of thousands of heroic prisoners.”‎

Palestinian Media Watch has documented the PA’s condemnation of the UAE and ‎Bahrain’s recent peace agreements with Israel as “betrayal,” and that the PA and Fatah ‎reacting partly to these agreements have united with Hamas and other terror ‎organizations to renew terror strategy. ‎

The following is a longer excerpt of the report in the official PA daily:‎

Headline: “The [Fatah] Shabiba [Movement] of Qalqilya organized an activity against ‎normalization at the Al-A’amiriya High School for Girls”‎
‎“The [Fatah] Shabiba Student Movement organized an activity against normalization at ‎the Al-A’amiriya High School for Girls in Qalqilya, as part of the Shabiba Student ‎‎[Movement’s] educational program for school students and in the framework of the ‎medical protocol guidelines. Shabiba Student [Movement] coordinator of activities ‎at the schools for girls Hanaa Al-Haj Hassan, school principal Hanaa Ja’aydi, ‎representatives of the Directorate of Education (i.e., branch of the PA Ministry of ‎Education), and female school students participated in the activity.‎
In her speech, Hanaa Al-Haj Hassan emphasized the position of the Palestinian ‎leadership and the Palestinian people, which rejects normalization with the Israeli ‎occupation (refers to peace agreements between Israel and the UAE and Bahrain; see ‎note below –Ed.). She explained that normalization is a betrayal of the Palestinian ‎cause, of the blood of the tens of thousands of Martyrs, and of the sacrifices of the ‎hundreds of thousands of heroic prisoners…‎
The female school students participated in a number of activities against ‎normalization, and the school principal thanked the Shabiba Student [Movement] ‎for being sure to spread national awareness among the female students.”‎
