"Whoever has a rifle, shoot a Jew or give it to Hamas!”
Four weeks into Hamas’s terror war against Israel and Israel’s counter-terror response, female students in Ramallah were eager to show their support for Hamas and its massacre of Jews on Oct. 7.
Waving Palestinian flags and a green Hamas flag, the students enthusiastically called to “shoot a Jew,” while declaring that “the entire West Bank is Hamas!” They also voiced criticism of Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas, asking rhetorically, “Abbas, where are you?” and then mocking him by saying that Hamas spokesman Abu Ubeida “is poking you in the eye”:
Leader of chant: “Mahmoud Abbas, where are you?”
Female students: “Mahmoud Abbas, where are you?”
Leader: "Abu Ubeida is poking you in the eye!”
Students: “Abu Ubeida is poking you in the eye!”
Leader: “They said Hamas is terrorist,”
Students: “They said Hamas is terrorist,”
Leader: “The entire West Bank is Hamas!”
Students: “The entire West Bank is Hamas!”
Leader: “[Whoever has a rifle,] shoot a Jew!”
Students: “Shoot a Jew!”
Leader: “Or give it to Hamas!”
Students: “Or give it to Hamas!”

In Ramallah earlier this month, a crowd shouted a fuller version of the chant:
Leader: "Whoever has a rifle,"
Crowd: "Whoever has a rifle,"
Leader: "And is hiding it for wedding [ceremonies],"
Crowd: "And is hiding it for wedding [ceremonies],"
Leader: "Shoot a Jew!"
Crowd: "Shoot a Jew!"
Leader: "Or give it to Hamas!"
Crowd: "Or give it to Hamas!"

Palestinian Media Watch has exposed that Palestinian students are taught to yell “Blow up the Zionist’s head... Strike Tel Aviv... Strike Ashkelon,” and “our path is jihad!”
On the day of Hamas’s massacre, children and youth participated in processions in the West Bank in celebration. PMW also documented that Fatah’s Student Movement Shabiba supports the attack, celebrated the massacre and called for more terror in the West Bank.
A recent post from Fatah’s Student Movement at Palestine Technical University–Kadoorie stressed the support for the war against Israel with the words:
“From out of your rifle barrels illuminate the flags of inevitable freedom, and from your pure blood the lamps of our path to the homeland were lit.Glory to you [martyrs] in eternal life, and for us remains walking in your path and fulfilling your instructions... we salute all forms of resistance [i.e., Palestinian term that also refers to the use of violence and terror] against this occupier, with all its forms.”

The following is a longer excerpt of one of the Fatah’s Student Movement’s announcements:
“In the name of All Merciful Allah, from out of your rifle barrels illuminate the flags of inevitable freedom, and from your pure blood the lamps of our path to the homeland were lit. Glory to you [martyrs] in eternal life, and for us remains walking in your path and fulfilling your instructions.
"Our student brothers and sisters, the [Fatah] Shabiba Student Movement and the Student Union Council at [Palestine Technical] University–Kadoorie have been expressing forever, in every stage and situation, the most wonderful expressions of solidarity with our people against the occupation’s [i.e., Israel’s] oppressive actions. Those who defended the sanctity of their university and their prisoners and martyrs will not be deterred to stand alongside those who sacrificed their lives to defend the sanctity of this cause, and we salute all forms of resistance against this occupier, with all its forms.”

The terms “all means,” “all means of resistance” and “all forms” are used by P.A. leaders to include using all types of violence.
Hamas war on Israel, Oct. 2023—At least 1,200 Israelis, including over 1,000 civilians, were murdered and over 4,800 wounded, in addition to at least 243 Israelis (including five later released or liberated) who were abducted into the Gaza Strip, in a Hamas terror war that began when approximately 3,000 Hamas terrorists broke through Israel's security fence at the Gaza Strip border and launched a surprise attack, taking control of several Israeli towns and attacking a music festival, on the Jewish holiday of Simchat Torah, which fell on the Sabbath, Oct. 7, 2023.
During the massacre the terrorists tortured, raped, shot, beheaded and burned their victims alive, murdering entire families and leaving at least 21 children without parents. Hamas terrorists also fired at least 5,000 rockets at Israeli population centers. In response, Israel launched "Operation Swords of Iron" to counter the Hamas terror threat.
Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon joined Hamas's terror war starting from the following day, attacking Israel from the north. Occasional rocket launches and shootings continued from Lebanon throughout the war.
