Those incredible folks at MEMRI keep churning out these nuggets. In this must-view clip from Al-Quds TV, Sultan Abu Al-Einen, Fatah’s leader in Lebanon brags of how the PLO exploited the cover of the peace process and Israeli concessions on the re-arming of Palestinian security forces to staff and arm ‘martyrdom’ operations
Very few people realize that during the Oslo peace process era, from 1994 to 2000, Israel admitted more than 200,000 Palestinians to the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. This includes Palestinian Authority (PA) personnel and their families and many others. This was an extraordinary humanitarian gesture and confidence-building measure for peace.
Who knew? Barry Rubin goes on to remind us that the leadership of Fatah and the PA today is exactly the same as it was in the 1990s.
