Palestinian Authority inciting religious war because Jews prayed at Temple Mount

The article from Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) presents the following main arguments:

1. Glorification of Terrorists: The Palestinian Authority (PA) continues to honor and glorify terrorists by naming public institutions, events, and streets after them. This practice perpetuates the celebration of individuals involved in violent acts against Israel.

2. Promotion of a Martyrdom Culture: The PA’s actions are seen as promoting a culture of martyrdom, where those who commit acts of terrorism are revered as heroes. This culture is deeply ingrained in Palestinian society through various forms of state-sanctioned recognition.

3. Impact on Palestinian Society: By glorifying terrorists, the PA is reinforcing a narrative that encourages violence and martyrdom, particularly among the younger generation. This has a significant impact on the mindset and attitudes within Palestinian society.

4. International Concern: The article suggests that these practices by the PA should be a concern for the international community, as they undermine peace efforts and contribute to the ongoing conflict with Israel.

These points emphasize the PA’s role in perpetuating a narrative of violence and martyrdom, which PMW argues is detrimental to achieving peace in the region.
