Official Palestinian Authority TV broadcast a tribute this past week to the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP). As part of the tribute
a poster honoring the three DFLP terrorists who committed the Ma’alot massacre was highlighted
on TV. (See opposite).
The Ma’alot massacre was done by the DFLP in 1974. Terrorists took school children as hostages.
22 of them were murdered along with four adults.
The PA TV tribute also honored terrorists who were described as “the heroes of Beit Shean, the pride of the Palestinian revolution.”
These were three PFLP terrorists who killed four civilians in the Israeli city of Beit Shean.
Last year Palestinian Media Watch reported that PA TV repeatedly broadcast some of these same posters honoring terrorists from the DFLP, more than 10 times in one week. The tributes included glorification of the terrorist “Martyrs,” as well as their many terror attacks, in which dozens of Israeli civilians were murdered.
The following are posters broadcast this past week on PA TV honoring terror, terrorists and violence:
Poster honoring terrorists from Beit Shean attack in which 4 were killed: Text: “Glory to the heroes of Beit Shean, the pride of the Palestinian revolution” |
DFLP poster depicting Israel as “Palestine” Text: “Gaza, West Bank and Galilee. Uncompromising struggle for national independence” |
Rifles with flowers | Grenades mixed with fruit in the poster |
[PA TV (Fatah), 10 times in February 2012, Feb. 22, 2013]
