Horrifying video footage captures what appears to be an attempted assassination on Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
The president’s convoy came under a hail of gunfire after he disregarded a menacing ultimatum from renegade Palestinian security forces, urging him to declare war on Israel.
Abbas holds the position of Chairman of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, or PLO, which governs the West Bank territory. Notably, the Palestine Authority president does not endorse the terrorist group Hamas, which controls the besieged Gaza Strip.
Local media reported that “one of Abbas’ bodyguards was shot, and the attack was claimed by the organization known as ‘Sons of Abu Jandal.’”
This group is alleged to have operated within the Palestinian security establishment in the West Bank. They had previously given President Abbas a 24-hour ultimatum to initiate hostilities against Israel following Israel’s military actions in Gaza, a separate Palestinian territory.
If the attack indeed targeted the president’s life, it signifies an escalation in internal conflicts among Palestinian factions.

International media has shared graphic footage suggesting that a bodyguard was fatally shot while the remaining individuals engaged in a firefight against the attackers.
Abbas holds the position of the Chair of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, also known as the PLO, which governs the West Bank territory.
The Palestine Authority president does not endorse the terrorist group Hamas, which governs the Gaza Strip under siege.
The ambush strike is believed to be a possible assassination attempt, as reported by the Turkish outlet Turkiye Newspaper.
According to the report, “Sons of Abu Jandal” claimed responsibility for the attack, and it is alleged that this group operates within the Palestinian security establishment in the West Bank.
Previously, the same group had given President Abbas a 24-hour ultimatum to initiate a conflict against Israel following Israel’s military actions in Gaza, a separate Palestinian territory.

President Abbas had met withUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken just yesterday (Image: AP)
The ‘Son of Abu Jandal’ has ordered the president to declare a “global war against the Zionist occupation”.
It comes just a day after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken took his diplomatic push on the Israel-Hamas war to the occupied West Bank on Sunday, trying to assure Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that the Biden administration was intensifying efforts to ease the plight of Gaza’s civilians and insisting that Palestinians must have a main say in whatever comes next for the territory after the conflict.
Blinken’s meeting with Abbas in the West Bank came on the same day that Israeli planes bombed two refugee camps in Gaza, killing at least 53 people, according to health officials in Gaza. An Associated Press reporter saw the dead bodies of eight children brought in to a nearby Gaza hospital after one of those strikes.
Israel’s military announced its forces had effectively split the Gaza Strip in two before an expected escalated assault on Hamas targets in the north.
As word spread of Blinken’s arrival in Ramallah, Palestinians turned out to protest US support for Israel’s war. Demonstrators held signs showing dripping blood and with messages that included, “Blinken blood is on your hands.”
Neither Blinken nor Abbas spoke as they greeted each other in front of cameras and their meeting ended without any public comment.
The Palestinian Authority administers semiautonomous areas of the Israeli-occupied West Bank. It has not been a factor in the Gaza Strip since 2007, when Hamas seized control after winning in elections there a year earlier. Abbas himself is unpopular among Palestinians.

This man from day one has been an Israeli and American stooge and traitor to his race and religion. He needs to meet Allah his maker as soon as humanly possible.
Delenda est Israel
Yes, Abbas has always been a puppet and has betrayed the Palestinian people.
He is a corrupt Mfkr who has sold his Soul .
Meet Allah…. No, absolutely not ..; He is destined to meet & eternally live with Iblees in Hell;
Old Mahmoud Abbas is aware that the Grim Reaper has his name and address; his departure from the scene would be no great loss tp anyone.
We await the inevitable formation of a Columbia University chapter of the Sons and Daughters of Abu Jandal
No one will shade a tear for the corrupt Abbas. While Israeli Jews are massacring Palestinian children, Abbas is busy shaking hands with one of their criminal perpetrators.
Until it is proved otherwise, assume that the assassination attempt was a false-flag by the Israeli regime to further divide an already fractured division among Palestinians.
If it was an Israeli attempt Abbas would be dead by now you medieval retard.
If Israelis won’t or cannot dispose off this MFkr Rat Abbas, then Palestinians should do it & exterminate this vermin. He is the root cause of agony of Palestinians.
It is a false flag designed to make him relevant. All Palestinians would celebrate his death.
The assassin might be a Mossad agent.
This is worst, it means that the nazi from the Whitehorse and the PA is planning to attack the people of the West Bank.
impeach and remove biden, blinked, and all USA White House nazis.
They have turn the USA into a nazi racist terrorist organization, arming genocidal manicaste and threatening world stability, while they are ripping profits from the insane wars they have started.
For those who are still hypnotized by the israeli propaganda, realized this, despite the little support by corrupted politicians and sold out presstitutes, the US and israel are now the most hated country in the world.
The genocide which the current white house administration is carrying out in the name of genocidal meniscus and supposed self defense of the most brutal terrorist and apartheid regime in world history, as made people wish that the bombs USA is spreading around the world, would fall back on their makers.
Impeach impeach impeach. And Stop the Genocide Stop the Genocide Stop the Genocide.
Stop bombing the children locked in the Gaza concentration camp, you fucking bombs dealers and baby killers.

Whether the Israeli occupation forces or the Sons of Abu Jandal kill Abbas makes no difference. He has been used as a stooge for the IOF and useless.
Mahmoud Abbas is not the ‘Palestine President’ as his term of office had expired several years ago. Nonetheless, recognizing him as a valuable stooge and loyal collaborator with the occupying power due to his relentless suppression of any Palestinian voices or resistance against the Israeli occupation and crimes, Israel has maintained his position as the President of the Palestinian Authority.
But any attempt to kill him is wrong, just like it would be wrong to kill any other human being. However, it is also possible that this was a false flag operation by Israel to gain some support for their loyal stooge in the Palestinian community. At a time when Israel has been systematically destroying Gaza once more and has massacred over ten thousand Palestinians, Abbas has remained silent. What a pathetic rich man!
The author states that Hamas “seized control” after winning the 2007 elections there. What is that supposed to mean? According to that logic, Biden equally “seized control” after winning an election.
Very true Artemis. By the way, you carry my long departed mom’s name. She mentioned to me that she rather end up in Hades than in Elysium, since wicked people would be more fun than saintly ones. I hope that her wish was granted. Here’s lookin at you mom.
