What Palestinian Arabs mean when they say "unity"

Islamic Jihad has released a video showing all major terror groups - Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PFLP and one other I couldn't immediately recognize - working together to murder Jews.



It celebrates rockets, suicide bombings, knife attacks and car rammings where the targets are ordinary Jews.

It is also notable that the video ends with the motif of the Dome of the Rock. The video contradicts the assertion that Mahmoud Abbas tells the West, that the terror attacks come from "desperation." As every Palestinian Arab knows, the excuse they gave for the attacks wasn't "poverty" or "occupation" but the Temple Mount.

In fact, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh hade this exact point in a sermon earlier this month, as Arutz-7 reports based on a report by Jonathan D. HaLevi at JCPA:

Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh, rejected claims made by Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, according to which the current terror wave stems from the deep sense of despair among PA youths.

“The intifada is not a result of despair,” Haniyeh told Hamas members. “This intifada is a jihad, a holy war of the ‘Palestinian nation’ against the Zionist occupiers.”
