Al-Rahman and Samer Imad carried it out in January 2003. It killed 30 and wounded more than 200." Note: This refers to a double suicide bombing in Tel Aviv's central bus station that killed 23 people (not 30 as written). This is not the first time that Fatah has glorified terrorists and terror attacks vi
