Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu slams Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas (Video)

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu slams Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas in venomous speech after his Foreign Ministry published document alleging Tel-Aviv's own troops were responsible for October 7 massacre at Nova Festival, NOT Hamas


Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has slammed the leader of the Palestinian Authority after its foreign ministry claimed Israeli forces killed their own people on October 7.

Netanyahu said in a speech: 'Today the Palestinian Authority spokesman in Ramallah said something utterly preposterous. It denied that it was Hamas that carried out the horrible massacre at the Nova Festival near Gaza. 

'Abu Mazen [aka Mahmoud Abbas, president of Palestinian Authority] in the past has denied the existence of the Holocaust, today it's denying the existence of the Hamas massacre. And that's unacceptable.'

This comes after the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates' official account on X, formerly known as Twitter, published a document claiming Israeli forces had killed their own people on October 7. 

In the deadly attacks Hamas killed 1,200 people in Israel and took 240 hostages. 


Statement by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“Today, the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah said something utterly preposterous. It denied that it was Hamas that carried out the horrible massacre at the nature festival near Gaza. It actually accused Israel of carrying out that massacre. This is a complete reversal of truth.

Abu Mazen, who in the past has denied the existence of the Holocaust, today is denying the existence of the Hamas massacre and that's unacceptable.

My goal is that the day after we destroy Hamas, any future civil administration in Gaza does not deny the massacre, does not educate its children to become terrorists, does not pay for terrorists and does not tell its children that their ultimate goal in life is to see the destruction and dissolution of the State of Israel. That's not acceptable and that is not the way to achieve peace."
