Israel's UN Envoy: PA "Whitewashing" Israeli Teens' Murder

(Times of Israel) Marissa Newman - Israel's UN ambassador Ron Prosor fiercely denounced the Palestinian UN envoy on Tuesday for "legitimizing terrorism," after the PA ambassador penned a letter to the UN secretary-general decrying Israel's Sep. 23 killing of Marwan Kawasme and Amar Abu Aysha - who kidnapped and murdered three Israeli teenagers in June. Prosor said in a statement, "The Palestinian representative has once again obscured the facts by intentionally trying to portray two murderous terrorists as innocent bystanders. Surprise, surprise - his letter mysteriously omits a number of critical facts, namely: the individuals in question were Hamas terrorists; they were responsible for the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teens, Eyal Yifrach, Gilad Sha-ar and Naftali Frenkel; and, their act of terror was condemned by the Security Council....It is time for the Palestinian Authority to take constructive steps rather than whitewashing the actions of murderers."
