(MEMRI) During his May 3 meeting with President Trump, PA President Mahmoud Abbas said: "Mr. President, I affirm to you that we are raising our youth...in a culture of peace." On March 8, Abbas met with Palestinians who carried out terrorist attacks between Oct. 2015 and mid-2016, including Osama Zaidat, 14, who attempted to stab Israeli civilians in Kiryat Arba on Sep. 20, 2016. Abbas heads the Fatah movement. On its 51st anniversary in 2016, events included a parade in Deheishe near Bethlehem attended by senior PA and Fatah officials, featuring children with mock RPG rockets and suicide belts. On March 17, 2016, Fatah held a ceremony in Ramallah in memory of female terrorist Dalal Al-Mughrabi, who was deputy commander of Fatah's March 1978 Coastal Road terror attack, in which 35 Israeli civilians, among them 13 children, were killed. A little girl named Majd Abu Rmeileh recited a poem, and a Scout troop gave a musical performance.
