The Algemeiner—Belgium Suspends PA Construction Projects After Palestinian School Renamed for Notorious Terrorist:
The Belgian government is suspending any efforts to construct or furnish Palestinian schools, after one built with Brussels’ aid was renamed in honor of a mass-murdering terrorist, The Algemeiner has learned.
Located in the southern West Bank, the school’s controversial name pays homage to Dalal Mughrabi, who led a massacre of 38 people — including 13 children — near Tel Aviv in 1978. Its logo also includes a map erasing Israel, while its Facebook page has posted pictures glorifying Palestinian attackers.
A plaque at the school, which was first identified by the monitoring group Palestinian Media Watch, notes that it was established with Belgian support.
Didier Vanderhasselt, a spokesperson for the Belgian Foreign Ministry, confirmed to The Algemeiner that the school’s construction was supported by the Belgian government between 2012 and 2013.
“When the school building was handed over to the local community in 2013 it was called ‘Beit Awwa Basic Girls School,’ subsequently the name was changed to ‘Dalal Mughrabi Elementary School,’” Vanderhasselt explained. “The Belgian government was unaware of this name change.”
He added that Belgium “unequivocally condemns the glorification of terrorist attacks,” and “will not allow itself to be associated with the names of terrorists in any way.”
“Belgium has immediately raised this issue with the Palestinian Authority and is awaiting a formal response,” Vanderhasselt said. “In the meantime Belgium will put on hold any projects related to the construction or equipment of Palestinian schools.”
The school indicated on its Facebook page on Friday that it was discussing the prospect of changing its name with parents and community members. However, in a post on Wednesday, the school wrote, “The name of Dalal is engraved in our hearts and will remain engraved in our minds.”
The school also shared a poem written to express the “sadness” of “the faculty and students” over “the confiscation and robbery of the right and the will of the Palestinian people to name its institutions.”

SnyderTalk Comment:
I’m proud of the Belgian government. They have done something that other governments should do. They have held “Palestinians” accountable for their misdeeds by withholding funding. As I said, other governments including the U.S. government should follow suit.
“Palestinians” are global beggars. If it were not for contributions by ignorant donors, they would starve, literally. If they want to glorify mass murder of innocent Israeli citizens, let them starve. They will get the message if enough foolish donors refuse to fund their wrongdoing.
Calling them “Palestinians” really bothers me. They are a hodgepodge of malcontent Arabs that no Arab government wants. There is no “Palestine”, and so-called “Palestinian” leaders are masterminds of murder and mayhem. The leading “Palestinian” political parties, Hamas and Fatah, are organized crime syndicates.
That’s the truth.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
