"The settlers' presence is illegal, and therefore every measure taken
against them is legitimate and legal," according to Fatah Central Committee
Member Jamal Muhaisen. [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 7, 2015] This attitude
which has often been expressed by PA and Fatah officials, explains the great
support being expressed by Palestinian officials for the recent murders of
Israeli civilians.

Another Palestinian official, PLO Executive Committee member Mahmoud Ismail,
said that the killing of Naama and Eitam Henkin in their car in front of
their four children was not merely legal but was fulfilling Palestinian
"national duty." [Official PA TV, Oct. 6, 2015]

As Israel continues to experience daily terror all over the country,
including four stabbings yesterday and three more today, the Palestinian
Authority and Fatah continue to express support for what they are quick to
call a "popular uprising". While telling the world that it does not want an
intifada and that it is against terror, the PA is telling its people to
continue its attacks on Israelis calling it a "popular uprising":

Jamal Muhaisen: "It is important that the popular uprising increases."
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 7, 2015]

The following are the statements by Fatah Central Committee Member Jamal
Muhaisen and PLO Executive Committee member Mahmoud Ismail legitimizing the
murder of Israeli civilians.

Fatah Central Committee Member Jamal Muhaisen

"Fatah Central Committee Member Jamal Muhaisen stated that the Palestinian
people has proven that its life and blood have little value [compared] to
support for the Al-Aqsa Mosque and achieving freedom and independence...
Muhaisen stressed that it is important that the popular uprising (i.e.,
recent individual terror attacks) increases, in order to deal with the
occupation's crimes and the settlers. He clarified that the settlers'
presence is illegal, and therefore every measure taken against them is
legitimate and legal."
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 7, 2015]

PLO Executive Committee member Mahmoud Ismail

Official PA TV host: "Are they [killers of the Henkin couple] from the
Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades (Fatah's military wing) or from Hamas?"

PLO Executive Committee member Mahmoud Ismail: "There is no need to return
to the argument and dispute about who carried out the operation... There is
no need to announce it and boast of having done it. One fulfills his
national duty voluntarily, as best as one can."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 6, 2015]

The Henkin murders - Israelis Naama and Eitam Henkin (also an American
citizen) were murdered in a shooting attack on Oct. 1, 2015, on the road
between Itamar and Elon Moreh near Nablus. Their four children, aged 9, 7,
4, and 4 months, who were in the car and witnessed the murders, were not
physically injured.
Although the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades of Fatah originally took credit, five
Hamas terrorists were arrested by Israel and confessed to the murders.
