Fatah: The Female Palestinian Terrorist is "Master of the World"

by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik


The administrator of one of Fatah's official Facebook pages recently posted a picture glorifying Palestinian female terrorists and the Palestinian woman, defining her as the "[female] master of the world." They are praised for being "the Palestinian woman who gave herself only as a Martyr."

The post includes pictures of three women, who are being presented as examples of this heroic Palestinian woman. The three women are notorious terrorists: Dalal Mughrabi, Ayyat Al-Akhras and Laila Khaled.

Dalal Mughrabi led the most lethal terror attack in Israel's history in 1978, when she and other terrorists hijacked a bus and killed 37 civilians, 12 of them children. Ayyat Al-Akhras, at age 17, was the youngest female Palestinian suicide bomber. She killed 2 Israelis and injured 28 in a suicide bombing near a Jerusalem supermarket on March 29, 2002. Laila Khaled was a PFLP terrorist who participated in the hijacking of TWA flight 840 in 1969.

The terrorists are pictured with a rifle, a pistol and wearing an ammunition belt, respectively. Palestinian Media Watch has reported that Fatah regularly uses its Facebook page to glorify terrorists.

The text on the picture with the three terrorists posted by the Fatah Facebook administrator honors all Palestinian women:

"She is [female] master of the world.
Men should be humbled in her presence and the moon should hide.
I bow my head and kiss the hand of every Palestinian woman."

It describes how - contrary to the world's other women who the text claims do not care about their homeland, give in to conquerors, and even entertain them - Palestinian women are worthy of admiration and praise for becoming "Martyrs." Two of the terrorists pictured became "Martyrs" during their terror attacks:

"Except for you, oh mother of purity, honor and modesty.
For you gave yourself only as a Martyr (Shahida);
Except for you, oh olive branch, oh tree of nobility, oh wellspring of honor.
The hardships exhausted you and the pickaxes fell on you,
but you were not exhausted and you did not break.
For you are the Palestinian woman who gave herself only as a Martyr."

Earlier this year, female terrorists were also presented as role models and heroes for Palestinian women by the coordinator of the Palestinian universities' Fatah sorority committee called "Sisters of Dalal," Ayyat Salah Al-Din:
"When we speak of the 'Sisters of Dalal,' we're talking about a prisoner's sister, a Martyr's (Shahid) widow, or the Palestinian fighter's daughter in general. You're talking about the successors of Martyr Dalal Mughrabi, and the successors of Martyrdom-seekers (i.e., suicide terrorists) like Wafa Idris, Ayyat Al-Akhras, Andalib Takatka, and many others."

The Bethlehem Municipality likewise glorified "the district's female Martyrs" earlier this year during a public ceremony in which the families of "female Martyrs" were honored, including the families of the two female suicide bombers Ayyat Al-Akhras and Andalib Takatka. At the ceremony, Bethlehem Mayor Vera Baboun stated that "the existence of female Palestinian Martyrs is very significant to the role of the woman in all areas of life," according to the official PA daily.

The following is the text on the picture on the Fatah Facebook page glorifying the female terrorist as "master of the world:"

Text on photo:
"She is [female] master of the world.
Men should be humbled in her presence and the moon should hide.
I bow my head and kiss the hand of every Palestinian woman
- the poor, the orphan, the widow and the bereaved,
the mother of the Martyr (Shahid), the wounded, and the prisoner.

When the Soviet Union collapsed, the night clubs filled with women from there who came to dance on the remains of the homeland's body.
When Germany fell, most of the women fell into the occupier's arms.
After France was liberated, scores of women in every street had their heads shaved for collaborating with the Nazis.
In most occupied countries, pubs and brothels spread, filled with the country's women who entertained the occupying soldiers.

Except for you, oh mother of purity, honor and modesty.
For you gave yourself only as a Martyr (Shahida);
Except for you, oh olive branch, oh tree of nobility, oh wellspring of honor.
The hardships exhausted you and the pickaxes fell on you,
but you were not exhausted and you did not break.
For you are the Palestinian woman who gave herself only as a Martyr."

Bethlehem Mayor Vera Baboun said that the existence of female Palestinian Martyrs is very significant to the role of the woman in all areas of life. She explained that there are more than twenty female Martyrs from the Bethlehem District. District Governor Abd Al-Fattah Hamayel said, 'The Martyrs' victory began to become real with the declaration of Palestinian statehood, in spite of all attempts to erase the Palestinian identity.' ... At the end of the ceremony, the families of the female Martyrs were honored, among them: ... [the families of] Ayyat Al-Akhras... and Andalib Khalil Muhammad Suleiman (Andalib Takatka)."
