Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki said in a recent televised address that Israelis must choose between leaving Palestine by sea, or wading “into a sea of blood,” Arutz Sheva reports.

He praised Palestinian Arab terrorists who have taken the initiative to carry out attacks and for causing Israel to “lose sleep”, and he said that the Palestinian Arabs have given “everything” for peace. He added that Israel’s settler “scum” should “think about leaving”.

The comments aired on Palestine TV on January 2 and were translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
