Elder of Ziyon
On Monday I showed that the website of the Palestinian Front for the Liberation of Palestine publishes virulently antisemitic articles, including claims that Jews slaughter children to harvest their blood for Jewish rituals.
Most Westerners would admit that this is clearly antisemitic and unacceptable.
But the blood libel is accepted as normal and even laudatory by leftist Westerners - as long as the PFLP and their pals apply a few tweaks.
Defence for Children International-Palestine has extensive links with the same terrorist, antisemitic PFLP. But they get funded by European foundations, so they have to be a little more sophisticated in their blood libels.
Instead of saying that Jews target and murder children, they say that Israel targets and murders children.
DCI-P issued a press release (so far, only in Arabic) about the Israeli airstrikes early Tuesday morning. They titled it, "Targeting and killing Palestinian children is a consistent policy of the Israeli occupation." And they make the same claim that they have made for years - that targeting children "is a consistent policy of the Israeli occupation authorities, and at the highest political and military level."
Not one word is written about the Islamic Jihad terrorists who were the targets of the airstrikes - leaders that Islamic Jihad freely admits were targeted. No, according to DCI-P, Israel didn't aim at terrorists - they aim at sleeping children.
Is the modern blood libel any different from the medieval version?
The PFLP 's own writings make it clear that they do not distinguish between their "military" and "political" wings, an artificial distinction made by Western NGOs attempting to minimize their terrorism.
To the PFLP, there is no difference between bombing Jews and attacking them politically. There is no difference between telling Arabic speakers that Jews murder Muslim children to harvest their blood and their NGOs telling Western countries that Israel shoots expensive, precision weapons at Palestinian children for no reason. There is clearly no military advantage to killing kids so it must be that they target them because Israeli Jews are pure evil.
Israel-haters want to minimize the connections between the terrorist, antisemitic PFLP and the respected "human rights" NGOs that the PFLP helped create. But when you understand the undeniable links, you can clearly see that there is no difference between the classic blood libel and the modern ones.
DCI-P press releases are the 21st century equivalent of an auto-da-fé.
