Abbas just admitted to the mass murder of 11,000 civilians.
Crickets from the BDS bigots because the victims don't matter.
Make no mistake about the bigots who always cry "war crimes" against Israel. The 11,000 murdered is legitimate armed resistance in their view. Neo-Nazis, Skinheads, KKK'ers, Stormfront believe the exact same thing.

And if you don't believe that, you're drinking the Hasbara Koolaid.
