Hanan Ashrawi's NGO MIFTAH calls raping Israeli women "self defense"

The Palestinian Miftah NGO, which highlights women's rights, has an article from one of its English-speaking employees, Joharah Baker.This world that really is callous, watching the slaughter of innocent men, women and children without blinking an eye. Or worse, they justify the rivers of Palestinian blood as “concerning” but immediately follow this up with the hackneyed phrase:...

Another antisemitic Miftah article says "Jews demand our submission," claims Ben Gurion wanted to expand Israel to Syria, Jordan and Egypt

Miftah, the NGO founded by Hanan Ashrawi and that is in the news for both is historic antisemitism and its offer to sponsor the Ilhan Omar/Rashida Tlaib aborted visit to "Palestine," still has many offensive and ahistorical articles on its site from over the years. John Paul Pagano found another one, named "America's Tar Baby," (archived here), written by a humanities professor...

Yet more Miftah antisemitism: Claiming Jews poison Arab wells

Hanan Ashrawi's Miftah organization has spread every single popular antisemitic meme from millenia of Jew-hatred. This means that it must have accused Jews of poisoning the wells of Palestinians, right? Of course! From a 2007 article by Elias Akleh published on Miftah: The first lesson an Israeli child learns is the most racist, chauvinist, prejudiced, religiously extremist,...

New Miftah outrage: Article claims Israel steals organs of Haitian, Ukrainian kids. (Peter Beinart defends Miftah.)

John-Paul Pagano found this amazing article at Hanan Ashrawi's Miftah that claims Israel steals the organs of children. Helping the victims of disasters has become now an occasion for launching public relations campaigns or achieving hidden political and military objectives. People still fall victim to earthquakes, disasters, occupation, oppression and terrorism. They...

.@Miftah_org and @DrHananAshrawi refuse to condemn antisemitic and terror supporting articles

Miftah is Hanan Ashrawi's organization that I have exposed in a series of articles between 2013 and 2016 as having published a blood libel, having consistently supported terrorism and praised terrorists, having published a neo-Nazi screed against Jews that is not about Israel at all, directly attacking Judaism, and for being against any kind of peace-building initiatives...

Who is the antisemite: Stephen Bannon or Hanan Ashrawi?

It's been four days since I publicized neo-Nazi material on Hanan Ashrawi's Miftah site. It was tweeted to Miftah by dozens of people. It is still there. Objectively speaking, the materials on this Western-funded NGO site are far worse than anything ever published on Breitbart. Yet publisher of that site Stephen Bannon came under withering criticism for...

Hanan Ashrawi's Miftah NGO hosts and publishes neo-Nazi material

Back in 2013, I found that the Miftah NGO, founded by Western media darling Hanaa Ashrawi, had published the blood libel of Jews drinking Christian blood for Passover as fact, along with explicit support for terror and terrorists. Even today, the website includes explicit antisemitism in Arabic. Now it has been discovered that Miftah even has an article (cached here) from...

Hanan Ashrawi's hypocrisy, illustrated

Here is what Hanan Ashrawi said about the terror attacks in Nice: “The Palestinian leadership and people stand in solidarity with France and remain committed to nonviolence; we are opposed to any acts of extremism or terror targeting innocent civilians.” Yet Ashrawi's Miftah organization praises suicide bombers: Palestinian women have also participated in the resistance....

EU chief to combat antisemitism meets with Ashrawi, whose Miftah pushes antisemitism

The EU coordinator on combating anti-Semitism, Katharina von Schnurbein, met with one of the leading purveyors of antisemitism in the PLO, Hanan Ashrawi, where she was told that Israeli Jews are the real racists. Yes, this really happened. One day after a meeting in the Knesset where von Schnurbein said that she recognized that anti-Semitism often lies behind anti-Zionism,...

Simon Wiesenthal Center calls on US to stop funding Miftah and other anti-peace NGOs

It's always nice when my research gets recognized. From Algemeiner: Rabbi Cooper A leading US-based Jewish human rights organization cautioned the US government on Tuesday against donating funds to Palestinian NGOs with a history of antisemitism. Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, was responding to a report by pro-Israel blogger Elder...

US started funding Miftah AFTER I exposed its antisemitism and extremism

In March 2013, I revealed that Miftah, a Palestinian NGO, founded and headed by Hanan Ashrawi had published an Arabic article that said that Jews use the blood of Christian children for Passover matzah. After the issue was publicized Miftah took it down and eventually apologized in English after defending it and attacking me for publicizing it. Of course, the blood libel...

Miftah site has numerous fake Ariel Sharon (and other) quotes

In the wake of Ariel Sharon's death, some are publishing fake quotes attributed to Sharon. And there are plenty of them. Miftah, the EU-funded Palestinian Arab NGO founded by Hanan Ashrawi which I have exposed for its antisemitism and naked support for terror, has a list of quotes on its website from 2003 that are generally either fake, out of context or otherwise dubious. They were informed that some of the quotes were fabrications shortly...

Miftah is against peaceful co-existence. Do its funders know that?

Among the organizations that are funded by the Anna Lindh Foundation are The Abraham Fund, "to promote coexistence and equality among Israel’s Jewish and Arab citizens." It also funds PeacePlayers International, which "uses the game of basketball to facilitate positive relations and peaceful coexistence between Israeli and Palestinian communities – in short, to bridge divides, change perceptions, and develop leaders who will advocate for a shared...

Miftah illustrates how to turn a good UN resolution into a weapon against Israel

Here's how the UN describes UN Security Council Resolution 1325, from 2000: The Security Council adopted resolution (S/RES/1325) on women and peace and security on 31 October 2000. The resolution reaffirms the important role of women in the prevention and resolution of conflicts, peace negotiations, peace-building, peacekeeping, humanitarian response and in post-conflict reconstruction and stresses the importance of their equal participation and...

Miftah deliberately ignored PA incitement and delegitimization - and supported terrorists as heroes

Miftah, the Palestinian Arab NGO that has published a blood libel and has extolled terrorism (but deleted the offending articles when they were made public), has another initiative that has been dormant for a few years but is still very enlightening. It is called the Media Monitoring Unit, and its goals are set forth as: Monitoring Palestinian Media. Research and advocacy activities aiming to reduce incitement, dehumanization and delegitimization...

Miftah's double standards for Jews and everyone else

Miftah, the Western-funded NGO that refuses to condemn the medieval Jewish blood libel in Arabic, has another article filled with lies - this one about Jerusalem: Looking at the state of Jerusalem’s eastern sector today, it is understandable why Israel would not want UNESCO or anyone else walking around the Old City, especially the Palestinian-populated parts of it. Because anyone who does, will see the devastation that Israel and its settlers have...

Miftah attacks Judaism

In a highly offensive article on its website, the Western-funded Palestinian Arab NGO Miftah is not really certain that there were ever any Jewish Temples in Jerusalem and denies that Jews have any rights to pray or even visit their holiest site: With each passing day, more and more right-wing extremist settlers and Israelis insist on entering the Aqsa Mosque Compound. They walk the grounds, try to conduct Jewish prayers and always do so under...
