Issachar is not a politician. She is just a naive, perhaps stupid, girl for taking the marihuana on the plane. But Ashrawi, by smearing her as a "drug smuggler," shows that she does not want to merely insult a girl - but an Israeli and a Jew. She wants to tell the world that Issachar is guilty because she is Jewish - there is no other evidence of her being a smuggler.
Ashrawi, whose Miftah has pushed the blood libel and supported terrorists who kill Jews, has proven her hate for Jews yet again.
