Elder of Ziyon
On Sunday, their first conference was held in Al Bireh. The "National Conference against Apartheid" was organized with such objective groups as the BDS Movement, the UN Human Rights Council and the Palestinian Ministry of Justice.
Their final statement called for the establishment of an international coalition of legal and human rights institutions to create a global lobby attacking Israel in international and legal forums. They also want to start a campaign to have the Israeli political parties on the Right to be declared terrorist organizations.
As always, they make the decisions before they come up with the definitions.
One does not have to read too much between the lines of the PLO's description of the conference to realize that they have no idea what apartheid actually is - they are defining it as pretty much anything they accuse Israel of doing. The conference defined apartheid as a tool of Zionist colonialism.
Speakers included Shawan Jabarin, a PFLP terrorist who is also head of the Al Haq NGO, and Saleh Hijazi, who was a prominent pro-terror researcher for Amnesty (also Human Rights Watch) but now is the coordinator of the BDS campaign in Africa.
And of course there was some obligatory antisemitism baked in to the purportedly "anti-racist" conference.
Deputy head of Fatah, Mahmoud Al-Aloul, said that Jews consider themselves the chosen people, and everyone else must serve them.
Muhammad Baraka, head of a committee supposedly concerned with Israeli Arabs, said that the incoming Israeli government is as close as possible to neo-Nazism.
From Durban in 2001 to today, antisemitism has permeated the movement to label Israel as "apartheid." Sometimes it is more obvious than others, and the PLO's initiative, together with prominent NGOs, is one of the more obvious ones.
