Palestinian factions applaud wave of attacks

[oberliner]

GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- A number of Palestinian factions on Wednesday applauded a series of attacks that began the day before, killing one American tourist and wounding more than a dozen Israelis, with some factions calling for more to follow.

Gaza's de facto leader Hamas said in a statement that the attacks were "evidence that the al-Quds Intifada will continue until its goals are achieved, and that all conspiracies to thwart the intifada have failed."

The al-Quds Intifada, or Jerusalem uprising, is a popular term given to a wave of unrest that swept the occupied Palestinian territory at the beginning of October last year. It refers to Israeli actions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem that served as a major trigger.

The military wing of Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) described the attacks as a "natural reaction to the ongoing crimes Israeli forces commit against the Palestinian people in the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and the Palestinian territory Israel occupied in 1948."

2. That next poster won't say they support Palestinians' right to murder random Jews....

They just won't condemn Fatah for encouraging, praising, and rewarding such behavior.

In fact, they'll deny Fatah does this.

You know why?
