Hamas bomber, PFLP commander exchanged for Oct. 7 hostages to speak at Argentina trade union HQ
Hamas terrorist Osman Bilal and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine commander Nader Sadaqa are listed by Action for Palestine as the “Palestinian activists and former prisoners.”
Two Palestinian terrorists released in ransoms for the October 7 Massacre hostages are set to speak on Friday at the San Lorenzo headquarters of Argentina‘s State Workers Association (ATE), according to social media posts by the union’s Rosario branch and Action for Palestine Rosario.
While it is unclear if they will be speaking to participants remotely, Hamas terrorist Osman Bilal and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine commander Nader Sadaqa are listed by Action for Palestine as the “Palestinian activists and former prisoners” who are set to give live talks at a Palestinian Prisoners’ Day event.
Bilal was serving 27 life sentences before he was released last February alongside hundreds of other terrorists in exchange for hostages Avera Mengistu, Eliya Cohen, Hisham al-Sayed, Omer Wenkert, Omer Shem Tov, and Tal Shoham. According to the Palestinian Information Center, Bilal was involved in the planning of the July 1995 Ramat Gan and August 1995 bus suicide bombings, which collectively murdered 12 and wounded over 140.
Sadaqa, a Samaritan man, served 22 years of his six life terms before being released as part of the October ceasefire deal and exiled to Egypt, according to Ynet. He served as one of the commanders of the PFLP’s Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, and in 2004 was indicted for involvement in a series of attacks, including the December 2003 Geha Junction bombing, the February 2003 Mount Gerizim attack, and the April 2003 Beqaot base attack. Those three attacks alone resulted in the death of four civilians and four soldiers, and 34 were wounded.
The event was organized by Action for Palestine Rosario, but the ATE Rosario branch promoted the event.
‘The attempted extermination of Palestinian political prisoners in Zionist jails’
“In a context of growing confrontation and persecution of popular activists, and faced with the attempted extermination of Palestinian political prisoners in Zionist jails, it is imperative to understand the situation and take action,” wrote the pro-Palestinian group, referencing the terrorist death penalty bill passed in the Knesset on March 30. “Therefore, we are organizing this meeting where a report will be presented on the current situation of political prisoners in Palestine and Argentina.”
Bilal had previously spoken at a December webinar hosted in collaboration with organizations operating in the United States and Canada.
The chief organizer of the December event, Masar Badil/Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, on Tuesday promoted Bilal’s Argentinian appearance.
