Kerry to Abbas: Don't Incite to Violence
- 9 years ago
United States Secretary of State John Kerry on Thursday warned Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas not to incite violence against Israelis, amid mounting unrest in Jerusalem, AFP reported.
Kerry confirmed in the interview he plans to travel to the region "in the coming days," amid reports that a meeting could be arranged between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Abbas in Jordan.
While this marks the first time that Kerry has directly reprimanded Abbas, Netanyahu has continuously pointed out the PA's constant incitement against Israel which is one of the principle causes of the latest terror wave.
Fatah posted on its official Twitter account a cartoon, showing a masked terrorist playing a knife as a violin and using a large key as a bow symbolizing the "return" of Palestinian Arabs, reported Palestinian Media Watch which revealed the tweet.
