Israeli Rabbi and Wife Brutally Murdered in Front of Children – Fatah Cheers for More

In May 2011 Barack Obama urged Israel to hand over half of Jerusalem, the Wailing Wall, The Temple Mount, Old Jerusalem, and the tomb of Jesus Christ to the Hamas-Fatah terrorist alliance.

Obama thought this would bring peace.

This week Fatah terrorists took responsibility for the brutal murder of a young Israeli couple in front of their children.
Fatah, the “moderate” Palestinian faction, cheered for more.

Israel National News reported:

The “armed wing” of Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction initially claimed responsibility for Thursday night’s brutal murder of a young couple right in front of their four children, but now a senior Fatah official has confirmed that claim.

Senior Fatah official Mahmoud Al-Aloul, who is a member of the Fatah Central Committee, was revealed by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) as having announcing responsibility the night before on Facebook for the murder of Rabbi Eitam and Naama Henkin outside Itamar in Samaria.

“The Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian National Liberation Movement Fatah, accepted responsibility for the Itamar operation (i.e. the murder – ed.) carried out against settlers, leading to their deaths,” wrote Al-Aloul in an open admission.

Al-Aloul is a senior Fatah figure; he was the PA governor of Shechem (Nablus) from 1995 before becoming part of the Fatah Central Committee in 2009. In 2012, he confirmed Fatah remains committed to terrorism, saying, “no one has dropped the armed resistance from his dictionary.”

The Martyr Abdul-Qader al-Husseini Brigades is the particular faction of Fatah which claimed responsibility for the murder of the Henkin couple.

Fatah and Hamas officials have both praised the attack, and the praise of the murder by Palestinian Arab terror groups continued on Friday.

The Popular Resistance Committees (PRC) said that alleged killings of Arabs by Jews “needed a painful response to settlers to stop their terrorism against our people in the West Bank,” according to the Palestinian Arab Ma’an News Agency.
