Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the terror attack in Elad that left three Israelis dead on Thursday night, the official PA WAFA news agency reported the Times of Israel.
“The killing of Palestinian and Israeli civilians only leads to a further deterioration of the situation, at a time when we all strive to achieve stability and prevent escalation,” Abbas said in a statement.
The PA leader has rarely denounced specific acts of terror. Surveys regularly show many Palestinians see “armed struggle” against Israel as legitimate. During the recent terror wave, however, Abbas has condemned three of the deadliest killing sprees committed by West Bank Palestinians.

That’s shocking in your eyes? That’s not a sincere condemnation. Firstly, he mentions Palestinian civilians. There were no Palestinian victims in the terror attack in Elad. If he was truly sincere, he would not add Palestinian civilians to the equation, but he always has to show how his people are victims too. Even worse, he condemns it not because innocent human life was snuffed out, but only because it “leads to a further deterioration of the situation.” In other words, it doesn’t help him politically. Spare me such condemnations. Mansour Abbas refused to condemn it. At least Mansour showed his true colors. To both I say: À bas Abbas!
Don’t fall for his garbage ,this is Biden talk
Both sides have to tone down the inflammatory rhetoric. Israel must give away more strategic land to the Palestinians.
Been there. Done that.
Israel gave away Gaza unconditionally. Even forcibly evicted the Jewish residents.
Now look back at what resulted….
I were the commander chief of army in Israel would kill some 600 of the pal.
This guy is a real killer
He means that he condones that it was carried out with Hamas backing vs his own authorization.
