Palestinian Authority TV has twice broadcast a music video honoring terrorist prisoners, including Ibrahim Hamed, serving 45 life sentences for orchestrating suicide bombings at Hebrew University (9 killed), Cafe Moment (12 killed), Cafe Hillel (7 killed), and Abbas Al-Sayid, serving 35 life sentences for planning the suicide bombing at the Jewish Passover Seder in Netanya (30 killed), and others. 

The video opens with a speech by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas calling for the release of all Palestinian prisoners:
Abbas: "We will not rest until all [prisoners] are freed, and the prisons are emptied."
[PA TV (Fatah), May 7 and June 11, 2012]

The video then highlights seven specific terrorists by flashing pictures of them. Those chosen to be highlighted include terrorists serving many life sentences for murder.

The band that produced the video, the Alashekeen band, was named a Palestinian national band by Abbas in 2010. 

Palestinian Media Watch has documented that glorifying terrorists and turning them into role models for Palestinians is ongoing PA policy. 

The following are pictures of the terrorists as they appeared in the video honoring prisoners on PA TV. The descriptions of the terrorists were added by PMW:
