According to Palestinian Media Watch, TV programs glorified Dalal Mughrabi, leader of a terrorist attack known as "The Coastal Road Massacre."
In a video shared by Fatah on the anniversary of the death of Black September commander Ali Hassan Salameh, the terrorist attack was classified as "a quality operation."
The claim from Wasef Erekat comes as PA and Fatah officials have long promoted terrorist attacks to Palestinian children.
Palestinian Media Watch reported that this allegation was made by Wasaf Erekat, introduced as a military expert, on an official PA TV program in mid-December.
The law will state that any person that makes a financial transaction which "supports, promotes, fund or rewards" terror activities will be subject to a prison sentence of up to 10 years
Abbas went on to say that, regardless of Israeli intervention, the PA will find a way to enforce this policy.
Viewers of the program would typically still be within the K12 schooling years.
Arafat died on November 11, 2004. He is commonly remembered for brokering peace accords with Israeli leaders, but the Palestinian Authority has chosen to highlight his calls for martyrs.
Qadri Abu Bakr told The New York Times that prisoners' families salaries would change to match the families' needs, instead of correlating to prison sentence. He denied the statement to Arab media.
