After Delay, Abbas Condemns Spraying Of Israeli Car With Bullets: Used Too Much Ammo

Abbas’s contention that bullets do not grow on trees belies the truth that Palestinian-governed areas are awash with firearms and ammunition.

Ramallah, April 16 – The President of the Palestinian Authority bowed to mounting international pressure today and issued a belated denunciation of a fatal attack on a family of Israelis the week before last – in which a group of Palestinian terrorists ran the family’s car off the road, then shot 22 clips of bullets into the vehicle, killing two Jewish girls and fatally injuring their mother – as an unnecessary waste of those bullets when a fraction of the quantity could have achieved the same end.

Mahmoud Abbas called a press conference in the de facto Palestinian capital on Sunday morning to address the shooting two Fridays ago in which Palestinian gunmen murdered Maia and Rina Dee when they sprayed the Dee car with bullets; Leah Dee succumbed last Monday to her injuries from the attack. Abbas agreed to make a statement following more than a week of diplomatic and media efforts decrying his condoning of such brutality.

“I unreservedly condemn this,” he declared. “The deviants who perpetrated this act showed flagrant, irredeemable disregard for precious resources the Resistance needs to remove the usurper Zionist colonialist ape-pigs from our land. Bullets do not grow in trees.”

“I urge our people to do better,” he continued. “No one must be above the law, and I will be sure to enact a law limiting the number of bullets to be fired into the body of a Jew.” Abbas governs by fiat; he has effectively sidelined and rendered irrelevant the legislative branch of the Palestinian government, which has not held elections for either the legislature or the presidency in sixteen years.

Analysts noted that Abbas’s contention that bullets do not grow on trees, while literally factual, belies the truth that Palestinian-governed areas are awash with firearms and ammunition, much of it stolen from Israel Defense Force warehouses or smuggled into the territories.

Abbas did not mention, nor is he expected to take, steps to prevent such violence from happening; the Palestinian Authority pays lifetime pensions to the perpetrators of such attacks, or, in the event that they die in the process, to their families. the Biden Administration has refused to implement and enforce the Taylor Force Act, which prohibits US funding to the Palestinians if such funding gets used to pay terrorists or their families.

Rival Palestinian factions vowed to disregard what they called Abbas’s “illegitimate” and “cowardly” “collaboration with the Zionists” and urged their adherents to observe no limit on the number of bullets, knives, rocks, rockets, or vehicles aimed at Jews anywhere.
