Palestinian Media and promoting hatred
It will surprise no one but a recent study to the Palestinian media shows a tirade of unrelenting blood libel to rival that of even our resident racist David White. Some of the recent examples include….
“Corruption is in the nature of the Jews all over the world, to the point where only rarely do you find corruption that Jews are not behind. Their intense love of money and its accumulation is common knowledge, and the way they get it does not interest them and they are liable to exercise degradation and the most lowly of methods in order to achieve their goals…” [Nasser Ahmad, in Al-Hayat al-Jadida, July 11, 1998]
“…The winds blew in their [the Jews] favor, when the persecution against them by the Nazi Hitler started…then the show began. They began to distribute horrific pictures of mass shooting being committed against them and to fabricate the shocking story about gas ovens, in which, according to them, Hitler would burn them [the Jews]. Newspaper columns began to fill up with pictures of Jews being cut down by Hitler’s machine guns, and of Jews being led to the gas ovens. In these pictures they concentrated on women, children and the elderly. And they took advantage of this in order to arouse admiration for them, while they demand a monetary compensation, grants and contributions from all over the world. The truth is that the persecution of the Jews is a false fable that the Jews called the disaster of the “Holocaust”…and took advantage of it in order to arouse admiration.” [Sayf Ali Al-Jarwan, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, July 2, 1998]
One columnist explained the existence of anti-Semitism and persecution of the Jews as justified acts of defense against the “evil” of the Jews. In a detailed report he rationalizes that the anti-Semitism and persecutions, including the “loss and expulsion” that the Jews suffered, are “a result of their ugly deeds and their evil.” [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, November 7, 1998]
“…Alzamali called on all universities and colleges to be active in the writing of the history of Palestine, and to guard it, and not to enable the defiled and the enemies to distort it…or to enable legitimacy for the existence of Jews on this land.” [Head of the History Department in Han Yunes Government Educational College, Dr. Yussef Alzamali, Al Ayyam, December 4, 1998]
While this may only add to David’s ugly repertoire, hopeful it will serve as a notice and reminder of the Dangers a racist like David poses to all of society. Blood libels exist today, just as they did 60 years ago and 600 years ago. They will exist 60 years from now unless something is do to stop it. The start is make people aware of the vileness that racism is. Given David White’s rantings, and the evidence of this report, anyone out there willing to question whether anti-semetism exists, or that it threatens Isreal’s existence.

Great post. It's sad that so many in the middle east only have access to distortion or flat out lies. Perhaps it is time to use our satellite network to spam the middle east radio, cell and television with a bit of truth.

of course. A new version of Radio Free America is needed, but our America hating Liberals would probably define that as "torture".
