Following a day on Tuesday riddled with no less than five major terrorist attacks that left one Jew murdered and numerous others wounded, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) unity government completely whitewashed the attackers in blaming Israel.
The PLO government headed by Rami Hamdallah condemned the "executions" of the "Israeli occupation army and gangs of settlers" towards "helpless citizens, claiming that they tried to carry out stabbing activities."
"The execution of five residents in one day, two youths and a female youth in the Hevron area, and two youths from Jerusalem, by gunfire at zero range...is part of the war crimes and the crimes against humanity for which it is an obligation to stand the government of Israel on trial," claimed the PLO government.
In the statement the PLO government completely ignored the fact that the "youths" were shot while attempting to murder Jews, including in an infiltration attack, several stabbings, a rock ambush in which a man was murdered by an Arab truck driver, and a car attack.
