Even the most dovish Palestinian politician is a complete antisemitic, anti-American idiot

The EU and UN seem to think that Mahmoud Abbas and his Fatah party are the best leaders for a potential Palestinian state they so desperately desire. This is despite his history of Holocaust denial and inversion, financial and ideological support for terror and history of antisemitism.

But surely there are more promising Palestinian politicians? People like, say, Mustafa Barghouti?

Barghouti is a Palestinian physician, activist, and politician who has been a prominent figure in Palestinian public life for decades. He is the founder and president of the Palestinian National Initiative, a political party advocating for a non-violent, democratic, and independent Palestinian state. Barghouti has been a vocal critic not only of Israel but also of internal Palestinian corruption, and he has run for the Palestinian Authority presidency, getting 20% of the vote in 2005 elections putting him in second place behind Abbas.

Sounds like a dream leader, doesn't he?

Yet here is what he tweeted last week:

Both Israel and Al Qaeda destroy tall buildings, so they are both the same!

Which means he is comparing the World Trade Center with Hamas infrastructure, which is anti-American. He is comparing Israeli actions against Hamas with Al-Qaeda, which is antisemitic.

But he is also comparing a deliberate attack designed to murder tens of thousands of civilians with Israeli actions which only destroy buildings after everyone inside is warned and has evacuated. Israel's attack on Hamas infrastructure is supremely moral, while Al Qaeda is the ultimate example of immorality.

And this Palestinian intellectual, physician and advocate of non-violence cannot distinguish between the two.

He claims to be anti-Hamas terror but he is also against attacking Hamas.

He strongly supports the "right to return" - meaning that not only does he want a Palestinian state but also an Israel that would have a majority of Arab citizens, meaning his "two state solution" is for two Arab states, not a Jewish and Arab state side by side. Meaning he opposes Jewish self determination.

This is the best that Palestinian society can come up with: an antisemitic, anti-American, immoral and incredibly stupid person.

Forget Abbas of Hamas - what kind of a nation would "Palestine" be if led by people like Barghouti, the shining example of moderation and intellect?

Barghouti isn't the hope of a future Arab Palestine, He is a perfect example of why such a state would be a failure by any sane metric.
