Palestinska förebilder enligt Abbas

Bara två dagar efter att palestinske presidenten Abbas i söndags uppträtt som fredsförhandlare och träffat representanter för Kvartetten och Israel förändras han totalt och lovprisar terrorister som förebilder i palestiniernas kamp.
I ett tal på Arafats minnesdag sade Abbas till folkmassorna:
"De vägar som martyrerna Arafat, Abu Jihad, George Habash och även Ahmed Yassin valde - det är de vägarna vi erkänner. Det är på dessa vägar som vi skall bevara det palestinska folkets intressen. "
Abbas visar med sitt tal att han verkligen följer sin förebild Arafat i spåren, ett budskap åt västvärlden på engelska ett helt annat budskap åt palestinierna på arabiska.

Vem var då dessa män som står som förebilder för Abbas och det palestinska folket.
Arafat känner alla antagligen till, de övriga är kända terrorister som lett flygplanskapningar, dödat tiotals civila israeler och förespråkat åsikten att försoning med judar är ett brott.
Wikipedia presenteras Abbas favoriter såhär:

Abu Jihad
During his time in Lebanon, al-Wazir (Abu Jihad) was responsible for coordinating high-profile military operations including, allegedly masterminding the Savoy Operation in 1975, in which eight Fatah militants raided and took hostages in the Savoy hotel in Tel Aviv, killing eight of them and three Israeli soldiers.[17] The Coastal Road massacre, in March 1978, was also planned out by al-Wazir. In this attack, six Fatah members hijacked a bus and killed 35 Israeli civilians.[18]

George Habash
During Habash's time as Secretary-General, the PFLP became known as one of the most radical and militant Palestinian factions, and gained world notoriety after a string of airplane hijackings and attacks against Israel affiliated companies as well as Israeli ambassadors in Europe mostly planned by Haddad. The PFLP's pioneering of modern international terror operations brought the group, and the Palestinian issue, onto newspaper front pages worldwide, but it also provoked intense criticism from other parts of the Palestine Liberation Organization.
In 1970, Habash masterminded the hijackings of four Western airliners over the United States, Europe, the Far East and the Persian Gulf. The aircraft were blown up, after the passengers and crews were forced to disembark. Habash was also behind the hijacking of an Air France airliner to Entebbe, Uganda and an attack on Israel's Lod airport in which 27 people were shot to death.[9]Forty-seven people were killed in the bombing of a Swissair jet in 1970.[10]

Ahmed Yassin
Yassin opposed the peace process between the Palestinians and the Israelis. He supported armed resistance against Israel, and was very outspoken in his views. He asserted that Palestine is an Islamic land "consecrated for future Muslim generations until Judgment Day" and that no Arab leader had the right to give up any part of this territory.[2] Yassin's rhetoric did not distinguish between Israelis and Jews, at one point stating that "Reconciliation with the Jews is a crime."[8] Yassin's inflammatory rhetoric was often scrutinized in the news media.[9] On one occasion, he opined that Israel "must disappear from the map".[9] Yassin's declaration that "We chose this road, and will end with martyrdom or victory" later became an oft repeated mantra among Palestinians.[10]
In 1997 Yassin was released from Israeli prison as part of an arrangement with Jordan following the failed assassination attempt of Khaled Mashal, which had been conducted by the Israeli Mossad in Jordan. Yassin was released by Israel in exchange for two Mossad agents who had been arrested by Jordanian authorities, on the condition that he refrain from continuing to call for suicide bombings against Israel.
Following his release, Yassin resumed his leadership of Hamas. He immediately resumed his calls for attacks on Israel, using tactics including suicide bombings, thus violating the condition of his release.
