OUTRAGEOUS: ABBAS HOSTS FAMILY MEMBERS OF TERRORISTS:Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas, who the West often claims is a “peace partner” for Israel, on Wednesday, 3 Feb. 2016, hosted families of terrorists from Jerusalem, some of whom carried out deadly attacks against Jews. The meeting, which took place at Abbas’ headquarters in Ramallah, was held just hours after three Palestinian Arab terrorists carried out a shooting and stabbing attack at the Damascus Gate in Jerusalem, killing one Border Police officer and wounding a second one. In attendance at the meeting were family members of 11 terrorists who carried out attacks during the last four months and whose bodies are still being held by Israel. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss ways to return the bodies of the terrorists to their families. Abbas told the families that he is making great efforts to have the bodies returned and claimed that the burial of "shahids" (martyrs) is a right and as such he is opposed to the conditions set by Israel for the release of the bodies. Those conditions that Abbas “is opposed to,” stipulate that the bodies of the terrorists will not be released until the families meet the police’s demands that are meant to ensure the funerals do not turn into demonstrations of incitement, mob violence and glorification of terrorism The fact that Abbas met with families of terrorists should come as no surprise, as he has refused to condemn attacks against Israelis and, in fact, has justified the attacks by claiming that Palestinians are driven to carry them out due to their frustration with the “difficult conditions” under which they live.
