But between the Abraham Accords and the constant incitement over the Temple Mount, that pretense has been falling away. They no longer hide their hate of Jews behind calling them "Zionists" or "occupiers."
Some examples from the past couple of days:
Ahmed Salama, in Jordan's Ammon News, writes, "Jews might think that an agreement here, a dance with an Arab there, and the lighting of a site with the Star of David means that Judaism has excelled and desecrated the nation of Muhammad....Our cousins, the sons of Jacob, are doing themselves in by humiliating the Palestinians and breaking into the sanctities of his sanctuary. This arrogance that the Jews are doing with all this arrogance and this obscenity has only one explanation, that the Jews cannot be a nation and a state..."
Fayez el-Fayez, writing in Al-Rai, says that Jews have been lying ever since the sons of Jacob lied to their father about the fate of Joseph. He continues on saying that "Jews do not hesitate to kill women and children."
Amin Mahmoud, in Rai al-Youm, writes, "The Zionists have continued to publish more of their historical claims, especially those related to mythology that is not recognized by any scientific evidence, such as their claim - for example - that there is a 'Jewish nation' that has existed throughout the ages and Jews have a shared historic past.... However, a simple reflection on these statements, especially the saying of the 'Jewish nation,' which claims that this nation 'has been waiting and looking to Zion for two thousand years to return to it' shows us that this saying can only be included among the biggest fakes in the record of human history. "
Yasar Khasawneh in Rum Online approvingly quotes the Jordanian prime minister as saying, “We are with the Palestinian resistance against the Jews who desecrate Al-Aqsa Mosque."
An emergency meeting held by the League of Arab States in Amman called on Israel to prevent Jews from praying in Al-Aqsa Mosque, warning that this “represents a flagrant violation of the feelings of Muslims.”
Open antisemitism has returned to Arab media.
