Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu responded to Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal’s blessing toward the abductors of three yeshiva students Tuesday, calling the terror organization out on the difference between its face to the international community and its statements to the Arab world.

“Last night we heard Khaled Meshaal, the leader of Hamas, praise and defend the brutal kidnapping of the three innocent Israeli teenagers who were making their way home from school,” Netanyahu said. “Meshaal once again made clear that Hamas remains committed to its war against Israel and its war against every Israeli citizen, and coincidently, against every Jew around the world.”

The Prime Minister expressed his appreciation for Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s condemnation of the abduction, but clarified that he will be tested in actions, not words.

“How can President Abbas make an alliance with these terrorists who extoll kidnapping?” he asked. “I appreciate what President Abbas said a few days ago in Saudi Arabia, rejecting the kidnapping. I think these were important words.”

“Now, if he really means what he said about the kidnapping, and if he is truly committed to peace and to fighting terrorism, then logic and common sense mandate that he break his pact with Hamas. This is the only way that we can move forward.”

“I think this is something that is shared by many in Europe who understand that the quest for peace and stability and tranquility means that we have to fight the forces of terror, intolerance and darkness,” he added. “There can be no alliance with the kidnappers of children.”

Earlier this week, Meshaal denied all knowledge of the abduction, and gave the kidnappers his “blessing” in an interview to Al-Jazeera.

He added that the abduction is “a logical and natural reaction to the violations of occupation forces,” and that “we support every resistance attack against the Israeli occupation, which has to pay for its tyranny.”

The comments came hours after Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh stated that a third intifada (terror war against Israel) had started, citing ongoing unrest in the Palestinian Authority (PA) as the IDF cracks down on Hamas in Judea and Samaria.

Despite Meshaal’s denial that Hamas is involved in the kidnapping, both Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and other security officials have confirmed again and again that the terror organization is behind the abduction.

Operation Brothers’ Keeper to find the boys – Naftali Frenkel (16), Gilad Sha’ar (16), and Eyal Yifrah (19) – is now well into its twelfth day.

Since June 13, over 15,000 IDF soldiers have conducted nightly raids in the Hevron area, arresting some 360 terrorists and searching 1,800 suspected holding sites.

    Abbas’ Fatah movement to Israelis: “Death is near”
    June 24, 2014

    Abbas’ Fatah movement to Israelis:

    “Stop and consider, sons of Zion,

    that death is near,

    All you’ll get from us is death”

    by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik

    Only four days after the kidnapping of the three Israeli youths, Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah movement posted a video on its Facebook page promising Israelis: “Death is near.” [Facebook, “Fatah – The Main Page,” June 16, 2014]

    The song promotes violence and destruction in the name of Allah, as it calls to “smash the fortress of the hopeless” and “shout: ‘Allah is Greater'” and states that “the remains of our bodies and our blood are a song of rage.”

    Fatah’s military wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, is described as “the rival in the land who burns the foreign enemy” and who will “reach the enemy everywhere.” Israelis and/or Jews are addressed directly and promised death:

    “Stop and consider, sons of Zion, that death is near…

    All you’ll get from us is death

    Stop and consider a thousand times

    That a revolution sparks with a flame

    Fatah is like a rock, whose soldiers love to fight”

    The visuals of the video promote violence through numerous images of Fatah fighters engaged in fighting and holding weapons. The video also shows pictures of grieving Israelis, a wounded Israeli soldier and Israeli medics with a stretcher at the scene of a terror attack.

    Palestinian Media Watch has documented other explicit threats made by Fatah against Israelis. In January, a video promised to “turn the beloved [Gaza] Strip into a graveyard for your [Israel’s] soldiers,” and to “turn Tel Aviv into a ball of fire.”

    In May, Fatah posted a film glorifying some of the most lethal terror attacks against Israelis as “great operations” — including the Coastal Road massacre, in which 37 were murdered, and the killing of 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics.

    Fatah is headed by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas. Its military wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, has been declared a terrorist organization by the US, Canada, the EU and others.

    The following is a longer excerpt of the Fatah song promising death to Israelis:
    “Fatah, mother of men

    Smash the fortress of the hopeless
    And shout: ‘Allah is Greater’
    Every chain will break…
    The remains of our bodies and our blood are a song of rage…
    For you, sun of truth, gallop forward…
    Gallop and fight bravely
    Today you’ll achieve your victory
    Fatah soldiers, rise and saddle the noble steed
    Announce that [you are] the rival in the land who burns the foreign enemy
    O [Al-Aqsa Martyrs’] Brigades, draw your determination from us and react
    Announce that [you will] reach the enemy everywhere…
    Stop and consider, sons of Zion, that death is near…
    All you’ll get from us is death
    Stop and consider a thousand times
    That a revolution sparks with a flame
    Fatah is like a rock, whose soldiers love to fight…
    Cry out loud with me
    Cry out loud with me: Long live Fatah!
    Long live Fatah!”
