    when it cames to Fatah (led by Abbas), it’s all about understanding where it comes from:
    Fatah founder Yasser Arafat is the cousin of the Mufti of Jerusalem – Haj Amin el Husseini.
    Arafat, like Saddam Hussein, took the teachings of Al – Husseini.
    Haj Amin al-Husseini was a friend of Hitler and helped him with the “final solution” AKA the total annihilation of all Jews.
