As usual, for Palestinians, everything must be politicized to be against Israel.
The latest example is Palestinian prime minister Mohame Shtayyeh's video speech at the lighting of the Bethlehem Christmas tree. During his address, he compared Israel to COVID-19 more than once, even referring to Israel as a "pandemic."
We will not surrender, neither to the virus nor to the occupation measures, and we will accomplish what we have started ....We presented a message in the political steadfastness in the face of the colonial occupation pandemic, and in the face of the seizure of our money, and we presented a message in the national steadfastness in the face of the disease pandemic.
This is the hate that Palestinians grow up with and receive every day of their lives.
