Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas made a speech praising the Nakba protesters.  So far more than 24 protesters have been killed, and at least 200 wounded.  Protests took place, and in some cases are still taking place, in West Bank, Gaza, the Israeli/Egypt border, Israeli/Jordanian border, Israeli/Lebanese border and even the Israeli/Syrian border.

“Their blood did not go in vain. Their blood was shed for the sake of the Palestinian people’s freedom and rights.”-Mahmoud Abbas, President of Palestine
