"The United Nations on Sunday said that it had withdrawn support for a Palestinian women's center named for a notorious terrorist, saying the move was 'offensive' and glorified terrorism.
'The United Nations disassociated itself from the Center once it learned the offensive name chosen for it and will take measures to ensure that such incidents do not take place in the future,' said a statement from Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
The center was named after Dalal Mughrabi, who took part in the 1978 Coastal Road Massacre. Mughrabi and several other Fatah terrorists landed on a beach near Tel Aviv, hijacked a bus on Israel's Coastal Road and killed 38 civilians, 13 of them children, and wounded over 70.
'The glorification of terrorism, or the perpetrators of heinous terrorist acts, is unacceptable under any circumstances,' the UN statement said. 'The UN has repeatedly called for an end to incitement to violence and hatred as they present one of the obstacles to peace.'...
The UN move came two days after Norway's foreign minister condemned the PA for naming the center after Mughrabi, demanding the country's name be removed from the building and that the funds Norway donated for its construction be returned..."
