Press Release
The Palestinian Authority Does Not Refuse a Hand Shake even
if it is Medvedev the Murderer of the Elderly, Children, and Women
(Translated)

On Friday evening, the Palestinian Authority’s President Mahmoud Abbas, and the Russian Federation’s Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, toured the corridors and sections of the ancient Hisham's Palace in the city of Jericho.

A group of men accompanied them on the tour from the PA and a number of diplomats, and senior civil and military officials.

We in Hizb ut Tahrir / Palestine reject the visit of this criminal whose hands are dripping with the pure blood of the people of Syria, and we condemn the reception of this criminal by the PA; this act is a heinous crime added to the frequent PA crimes against Palestine and its people and all Muslims.

It is a shame that while Russian aircraft are hurling its burning bombs on the people of Syria, especially in steadfast Aleppo, leaving behind mass destruction and ripped body parts of children, elderly, and women, and demolished homes over people heads, the Palestinian Authority receives one of Russian criminal leaders, Dmitry Medvedev, with hospitality and given a hero’s welcome while forgetting the blood of our brothers in Ash-Sham and the crimes committed there and shameful affront to humanity.

Putin the criminal, by sending one of his criminal commanders to Palestine to visit one of the Palaces of the Umayyad Khalifs, is sending a message to the people of Syria the domain of these Khalifs: that they are destroying the capital of the Umayyads over the heads of its people and that your brothers in Palestine support us in this and gave us a heroes' welcome in the Umayyad’s Palace of Hisham Bin Abd Al-Malik! A message intended by Putin and Medvedev to humiliate the Muslims in the world, and the Palestinian Authority is helping them in this, their actions are evil.

In conclusion, we say to Russia the terrorist: The people of Palestine are not represented by the Palestinian Authority, and they reject your visits, and are aware of your crimes, and they are part of the Islamic Ummah, which works day and night to establish a state of justice; the righteous Khilafah "Caliphate" state on the method of Prophethood, that will liberate the world, Allah willing, from your evil and your crimes and will pursue your senior criminals in their homes if there will be any left.
