Fatah Secretary In Jerusalem ‚Adnan Ghaith: Arafat’s Slogan ‚Millions Of Martyrs Are Marching On Jerusalem‘ Still Guides Us Today | MEMRI

Fatah’s secretary in Jerusalem,’Adnan Ghaith, dedicated his November 11, 2015 column in the Palestinian Authority (PA) daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida to marking the 11th anniversary of Yasser Arafat’s death. He wrote that Arafat left the Palestinians a legacy regarding the struggle methods, and that he lighted the way for the future generations and serves as a source of inspiration for them. In his slogan „Millions of Martyrs Are Marching On Jerusalem,“ Arafat conveyed to the Palestinians the watchword of their national struggle, said Ghaith. He added that Arafat steered the Palestinian struggle towards Jerusalem and signaled to the Palestinians that they must unite for its sake and be willing to sacrifice themselves for it – a message which the Palestinians internalized and realized in their willingness to sacrifice.
