6 Israelis Murdered, 2 Weeks After Palestinian Authority Judge Calls to ‘Kill Them One by One’

Two weeks ago, a Palestinian Authority (PA) official called for the genocide of Jews for the seventh time in a year, as documented by Palestinian Media Watch.

On Monday morning, that call was acted upon, as two Palestinian terrorists opened fire at civilians in Jerusalem, killing six Israelis and wounding 12.

“Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality,” according to American author Earl Nightingale, who said this about keeping an optimistic outlook on life and practicing repetition of positive thinking.

The Palestinian Authority uses repetition to incite the murder of Jews.

When PA preachers in mosques repeat the call to “kill Jews one by one, and do not leave even one,” they play into the subconscious mind of their congregation and nurture a justification for murdering Jews and Israelis.

The sermons — all broadcast on official PA TV — create a dangerous reality in which Palestinians see religious value in killing Jews “one by one”:

O Allah… strike your enemies, the enemies of the religion, and they cannot overcome You, O Allah. Allah, count them one by one, kill them one by one, and do not leave even one, O Master of the Universe.”

Official PA TV has broadcast this call for genocide of Jews by mosque preachers — who receive instructions from the PA Ministry of Religion on what to speak about in their sermons — at least seven times in the past year.

In June, two months prior to this last call, a PA Shariah judge prayed: “O Allah strike the thieving Jews, Allah count them one by one, kill them one by one, and do not leave even one.” [PA TV, June 13, 2025]

The “one-by-one” motif in these calls is particularly insidious, as it turns the murder of Jews into an easily achievable objective.

Rather than encouraging Palestinians to commit mass attacks that face logistical difficulties, killing Jews “one-by-one” presents a practical strategy for anyone and everyone.

And on Monday, Palestinian terrorists answered the PA’s call.

After False Dawns, Gazans Hope Trump Will Force End to Two-Year-Old War

Exhausted Palestinians in Gaza clung to hopes on Saturday that US President Donald Trump would keep up pressure on Israel to end a two-year-old war that has killed tens of thousands and displaced the entire population of more than two million.

Hamas’ declaration that it was ready to hand over hostages and accept some terms of Trump’s plan to end the conflict while calling for more talks on several key issues was greeted with relief in the enclave, where most homes are now in ruins.

“It’s happy news, it saves those who are still alive,” said 32-year-old Saoud Qarneyta, reacting to Hamas’ response and Trump’s intervention. “This is enough. Houses have been damaged, everything has been damaged, what is left? Nothing.”

GAZAN RESIDENT HOPES ‘WE WILL BE DONE WITH WARS’

Ismail Zayda, 40, a father of three, displaced from a suburb in northern Gaza City where Israel launched a full-scale ground operation last month, said: “We want President Trump to keep pushing for an end to the war, if this chance is lost, it means that Gaza City will be destroyed by Israel and we might not survive.

“Enough, two years of bombardment, death and starvation. Enough,” he told Reuters on a social media chat.

“God willing this will be the last war. We will hopefully be done with the wars,” said 59-year-old Ali Ahmad, speaking in one of the tented camps where most Palestinians now live.

“We urge all sides not to backtrack. Every day of delay costs lives in Gaza, it is not just time wasted, lives get wasted too,” said Tamer Al-Burai, a Gaza City businessman displaced with members of his family in central Gaza Strip.

After two previous ceasefires — one near the start of the war and another earlier this year — lasted only a few weeks, he said; “I am very optimistic this time, maybe Trump’s seeking to be remembered as a man of peace, will bring us real peace this time.”

RESIDENT WORRIES THAT NETANYAHU WILL ‘SABOTAGE’ DEAL

Some voiced hopes of returning to their homes, but the Israeli military issued a fresh warning to Gazans on Saturday to stay out of Gaza City, describing it as a “dangerous combat zone.”

Gazans have faced previous false dawns during the past two years, when Trump and others declared at several points during on-off negotiations between Hamas, Israel and Arab and US mediators that a deal was close, only for war to rage on.

“Will it happen? Can we trust Trump? Maybe we trust Trump, but will Netanyahu abide this time? He has always sabotaged everything and continued the war. I hope he ends it now,” said Aya, 31, who was displaced with her family to Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.

She added: “Maybe there is a chance the war ends at October 7, two years after it began.”

Mass Rally in Rome on Fourth Day of Italy’s Pro-Palestinian Protests

Large crowds assembled in central Rome on Saturday for the fourth straight day of protests in Italy since Israel intercepted an international flotilla trying to deliver aid to Gaza, and detained its activists.

People holding banners and Palestinian flags, chanting “Free Palestine” and other slogans, filed past the Colosseum, taking part in a march that organizers hoped would attract at least 1 million people.

“I’m here with a lot of other friends because I think it is important for us all to mobilize individually,” Francesco Galtieri, a 65-year-old musician from Rome, said. “If we don’t all mobilize, then nothing will change.”

Since Israel started blocking the flotilla late on Wednesday, protests have sprung up across Europe and in other parts of the world, but in Italy they have been a daily occurrence, in multiple cities.

On Friday, unions called a general strike in support of the flotilla, with demonstrations across the country that attracted more than 2 million, according to organizers. The interior ministry estimated attendance at around 400,000.

Italy’s right-wing government has been critical of the protests, with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni suggesting that people would skip work for Gaza just as an excuse for a longer weekend break.

On Saturday, Meloni blamed protesters for insulting graffiti that appeared on a statue of the late Pope John Paul II outside Rome’s main train station, where Pro-Palestinian groups have been holding a protest picket.

“They say they are taking to the streets for peace, but then they insult the memory of a man who was a true defender and builder of peace. A shameful act committed by people blinded by ideology,” she said in a statement.

Israel launched its Gaza offensive after Hamas terrorists staged a cross border attack on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people and taking 251 people hostage.
