On the Fatah Facebook page it was announced that "activists" started their own hashtag supporting Mahmoud Abbas, "With the President" # :مع_الرئيس


But that hashtag was actually launched on the Fatah Facebook page hours earlier,  to hype Abbas' visiting people in his Ramallah stronghold during their iftar meals. No one used it until then (besides it being used years ago in Egypt):


So Abbas, under fire for his handling of Gaza and his censorship of the media, started his own clumsy social media campaign to make it look like he has widespread support.

This hashtag shows the exact opposite of its intent. It shows that Abbas is not nearly as popular as people pretend and that he has to engage in bizarre social media plots to make it appear otherwise.

On Twitter, the hashtag was used by maybe a couple of dozen people.



We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
