On Palestinian National Women's Day, PA District Governor of Ramallah
Laila Ghannam chose to single out terrorist murderer Dalal Mughrabi who
led the murder of 37 Israeli civilians as a role model for Palestinian
women.
When murderer Mughrabi led a group of terrorists in a terror attack in 1978 in which they murdered 25 Israeli adult civilians and 12 children, she "paved the path to freedom with her blood," Ghannam stated:
Posted text: "On Palestinian National Women's Day we salute with pride and respect every Palestinian woman whoever she is, as she faces the cruelty of the occupation (i.e., Israel) with unbreakable willpower and determination that knows no defeat... On this day, we remember our female prisoners (i.e., terrorists) who face the chains and prison guards with patience and resilience. We pray for the souls of the female Martyrs and leaders who paved the path to freedom with their blood, from Dalal Mughrabi to Samiha Khalil (i.e., politician connected to DFLP terror organization), [former PA Minister of Women's Affairs] Rabiha Dhiab, and other prominent figures of our national struggle."

PA Prime Minister Muhammad Mustafa chose to accuse Israel of the PA's own shortcomings. Instead of mentioning progress in gender equality – of which there is none in the PA – he used a common PA strategy for explaining away internal societal problems. He blamed Israel, calling it "the main obstacle to empowering the Palestinian women":
"In a speech written for Palestinian National Women's Day, [PA] Prime Minister Muhammad Mustafa said: 'Today we honor the women of Palestine, who throughout history have served as the most wonderful example of resolve, willpower, and giving. We honor authentic partners in the national struggle…' Mustafa stressed that the Israeli occupation remains the main obstacle to empowering the Palestinian women, as it deprives them of their basic human rights and doubles their daily suffering through policies of murder, arrests, demolitions, and siege."

Palestinian media figure Marwah Al-Bakri equated female terrorists with teachers and doctors, stressing the Palestinian woman's significance in producing Palestinians "for the struggle" against Israel:
"The Palestinian woman... continues to be a symbol of resolve and giving, because she is the mother who raised the generations of the struggle, the wife who stood resolutely in the face of life's challenges and the cruelty of the occupation (i.e., Israel), the prisoner, the Martyr, the teacher… the doctor, and the fighter."
