Fatah: All of Israel Is Forever "Palestine"


(Palestinian Media Watch) Nan Jacques Zilberdik and Itamar Marcus - Fatah is the political party of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. On Feb. 2, Fatah Commissioner and Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi posted on Facebook: "Who said that we are for a state [on the lines of] 1967? Who said this? In Fatah, this does not exist in our constitution and our charter!...We say that Nazareth, Haifa, and Acre (i.e., Israeli cities) are Palestinian, and they will remain Palestinian! Our Palestinian land is from the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea." "I dare any Palestinian, any senior Palestinian official, or any Palestinian leader to reduce the Palestinian map to the West Bank and Gaza! He would not be able to walk one meter in the streets of our Palestinian cities....The [Palestinian] people lives on land that is all holy and that is all waqf land (i.e., land that is an inalienable religious endowment in Islamic law, and therefore it is forbidden to accept non-Muslim rule over it)."
