Following are excerpts
from a program aired on PA TV, in which Palestinian terrorist Dalal
Al-Mughrabi was commemorated. The program aired on March 11, 2010.
Anchorwoman: Today,
we are commemorating the martyrdom of Dalal Mughrabi. What would you
like to say on this day?
Dalal Al-Mughrabi’s
sister, Rashida: This is a day of pride and glory for our Palestinian
people, and a painful day for the Zionists, who consider it a bloody
day.
Dalal Al-Mughrabi’s
legacy: "I have undertaken a pledge to ignite the
revolution, and to accomplish the goals of my people. I set out on the
path by pledging to Allah, to the homeland, and the martyrs that I would
be as steadfast as could be, on this path, which is full of thorns,
obstacles, and death. I will continue along this path no matter how
much effort, sacrifice, and blood it costs me.
I will not hesitate or
back down – as God is my witness. My legacy to you all, my weapon-bearing
brothers, is to freeze all secondary clashes and to escalate our primary
clash with the Zionist enemy. Aim your guns – all your guns –
at the Zionist enemy. The independence of Palestinian decision-making
is guarded by the weapons of the revolutionaries.
Have the courage to continue
the struggle, all my brothers, wherever you may be. Continue along the
path we follow. My comrades, when a fighter makes a sacrifice, he does
not care whether he witnesses the moment of victory himself. I will
witness it through the eyes of my comrades. Continue, protect this legacy,
liberate our occupied homeland in its entirety, and do not compromise
on a single inch of Arab land. Do not recognize the Zionist enemy, until
all our national land is liberated."

Rashida: Dalal
is a source of pride for Palestinian women. We have the right to commemorate
her. The Israelis are demanding that we refrain from commemorating Dalal.
There are many high-school students and members of the Fatah youth movement
who insist upon commemorating Dalal today. They will gather today at
1 pm at the square to be named after Dalal. God willing, we will see
you there, in order to show our pride in our fighting Palestinian women
and in Dalal Mughrabi.
