Abbas' hypocrisy: Abbas participated in the anti-terror march in France, but the PA, PLO and Fatah continue to glorify terrorists who murdered Israeli civilians, 5 terrorists who killed 10 Israelis are elevated as "Martyrs of 2014".
by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
Today, Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas participated in the anti-terror march in France following the last few days' horrific terror attacks in Paris, which the PA has officially condemned. Reporting on a conversation between Abbas and French President Francois Hollande, the official PA news agency wrote that:
"Abbas condemned all terrorist actions that claim innocent lives, whether they are Christians, Jews, Muslims or followers of other religions, stressing the sacredness of human life."

However, as Palestinian Media Watch has documented, the PA and Fatah continue to glorify acts of terror against Israeli civilians.
Just last week, 5 terrorists who recently killed a total of 10 Israelis were included on a list of "Martyrs of 2014" who "ascended" to Heaven, published in the bi-weekly Al-Asima distributed with the official Palestinian Authority daily.
The terrorists on the list, who were called "Shahids" (Martyrs), which is the highest achievable status in Islam, and included the synagogue murderers who recently killed 5, 3 terrorists who killed 5 by running them over with cars and the terrorist who attempted to assassinate Rabbi Yehuda Glick. See descriptions of their attacks below.
Another article described the terrorists as having died while "carrying out Martyrdom-seeking (Istish'had) operations."
Al-Asima lists as its "general supervisor" Othman Abu Gharbieh, who is a member of Fatah's Central Committee and the Secretary General of the Popular National Conference of Jerusalem, the PLO institution that publishes this bi-weekly.
A few days ago, Palestinian Media Watch reported on an article in the same bi-weekly that glorified a terrorist who stabbed two soldiers and encouraged Palestinians to carry out similar attacks "against Zionists."
The following are the examples of the PA glorifying the terrorist murderers in the PLO-published supplement to the official PA daily:
"The [PA's] Islamic-Christian Council for Jerusalem and the Holy Places published its annual report for 2014, which documents the most prominent Israeli violations and attacks on Jerusalem, its holy places, citizens and buildings. The contents of the report are as follows: ... Attacks on the residents of Jerusalem:
