Palestinians Celebrate Iran's Attack
(Israel Hayom) Nadav Shragai - The sight of thousands of Palestinians dancing on the rooftops, drunk with hatred, as missiles and UAVs whizzed over their heads towards Israel, is a reflection of Palestinian society. Contrary to the impression the Americans are trying to make, at their core and essence, the Palestinians in the West Bank - like those in Gaza - are not truly part of the moderate axis opposing the Iranian offensive. The Iranians know this too, and they are counting on them, just as they are counting on the Palestinian majority in Jordan, which they are now trying to destabilize from within. The firing toward Jerusalem, which was intercepted over the Temple Mount ("Al-Aqsa"), is not an Iranian mistake. Quite the opposite. Just a few years ago, Iran's Revolutionary Guards participated in a drill simulating the capture of the sacred compound in Jerusalem. The current administration in Washington continues to be under the illusion of a renewed Palestinian Authority, while the residents of that very authority cheered the missile attacks on Israel.
