RAAM chairman Mansour Abbas attended a conference alongside senior leaders of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, according to a Monday evening report by the 'Choosing Life' forum on Channel 14's program with Omri Haim. The conference, described by the forum as an anti-Israel event, included figures from two organizations designated as terrorist groups by Israel, the United States, and many other nations. The report, still unverified by other sources, raises questions about the participation of a Knesset member from a coalition party at an event that hosted leaders of armed groups that have waged war against Israel. Abbas has previously maintained a policy of avoiding contact with armed factions. The exact timing and location of the conference have not yet been independently confirmed. The report is treated as a developing story pending further corroboration or official response.
