Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas:
“We bless you, we bless the Murabitin (those
carrying out Ribat, religious conflict/war to protect land claimed to be
Islamic), we bless every drop of blood that has been spilled for
Jerusalem, which is clean and pure blood, blood spilled for Allah, Allah
willing. Every Martyr (Shahid) will reach Paradise, and everyone
wounded will be rewarded by Allah. The Al-Aqsa [Mosque] is ours, the
Church of the Holy Sepulchre is ours, and they have no right to defile
them with their filthy feet. We will not allow them to, and we will do
everything in our power to protect Jerusalem.”
