Lessons from Gershon Baskin's message to Palestinians

Here's how you can tell the differences between real liberal peace activists and the posers at B'Tselem, J-Street, Gisha, Amnesty, HRW and other similar groups.

From Gershon Baskin:

SOME VERY HARSH WORDS TO A PALESTINIAN LEADER AND TO THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE FROM ME:

A well known Palestinian political leader from Fatah in a very recent interview praised the Palestinian youth who take their knives to the enemy. He called them heroes and shaheeds (shuhada). I called him out on this and challenged him in a very direct and harsh sms. He immediately called me and said that I didn't understand his message. He also supported the two states solution in the interview and said he was against violence - he supported a popular peaceful uprising. He said that Palestinian leaders had to speak this way if they wanted to be seen as leaders. And that, in a nutshell is the Palestinian problem and explains why, until now, there is no Palestinian state (in addition to the extra added Israeli stubbornness, fanaticism and unwillingness to get to a solution). He told me to listen to the interview. I did and this is what I just wrote back to him:

"I cannot understand how trying to kill a 70 year old woman, or a 13 year old boy, or a religious couple coming home from praying is heroism worthy of praise. In my mind, no violence is worthy of praise, especially against civilians. No, they are not heroes and they are not shuhada. It is time to stop dying for Palestine and instead to live for Palestine. Someone who praises this is not a good leader of his people. I thought you were better than that".

I add to everyone, those young people who have "died for Palestine" have died in vain. They did not help Palestine. They did not go to heaven and they are not martyrs. They died as fools for nothing. They achieved nothing. They only added more suffering to their families and to us all.

It is time for Palestinian leaders to understand that this culture of death is the death of their own dreams and their own society.

Baskin may be misguided but he at least has the intellectual honesty to understand that peace requires both sides to act, unlike the Peter Beinarts of the world who at best pay lip service to the idea of Palestinian responsibility.

The excuse used by the unnamed "Palestinian leader," assuming that he is telling the truth (he could easily have adopted a peaceful persona for Baskin) shows a fundamental problem with the Arab side: After decades of inciting hate, they now must be seen as leaders in continuing the incitement or else they will not be seen as leaders at all.

The mob that they created now rules and they meekly follow. Any inkling that a Palestinian is against terror makes him a "collaborator." Any public appearance with an Israeli Jew means he wants to "normalize" relationships, another horrible crime.

If there are any Palestinian Arab leaders who really want peace and are willing to accept responsibility, they are in fear for their lives by saying it out loud.

The "culture of peace" that Abbas ridiculously claimed to have created in his UN speech is not only a lie, it is the exact opposite of the truth. He and others have created a culture of hate and a cult of death that is now so powerful that they must obey it themselves.

The West ignored Israel's insistence that the incitement must end (something explicitly agreed to during the Oslo process.) This intifada is the direct result of that decision. And real peace activists are starting to wake up to the fact that peace is impossible with a society that has been brought up to hate.

But as long as "human rights" NGOs ignore the culture of hate that is behind the murders, and the Western media ignores the obvious, there will be very few Palestinian Arabs with the bravery to stand up to this vortex of hate and say, "enough!"

This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For over 11 years and over 22,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.

Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah incitement to kill Jews is explicit - and ignored

The media and Western politicians are still ignoring the role of incitement in the current terror spree, and especially the role played by Mahmoud Abbas' own Fatah party.

I showed examples of posters on the official Fatah Facebook page yesterday. But it even gets worse.

Like this photo on their page, which is a call by Fatah's student arm for a demonstration at Quds University in Bethlehem today.

#Resist_boycott_RiseUp_Fatah_Youth_Call to arms

Rise for Palestine ("intafidh")

Start by yourself... support your people

Who can miss the message of this poster, see on the webpage of Fatah's Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades?

Rise, oh Palestinian and resist,

And never bargain about your right!

Mahmoud Abbas could shut this incitement down in an hour if he wanted to. Instead - he funds it.

And his Al Aqsa Brigades are openly roaming the West Bank, with guns. (The armed group that Abbas pretended to dismantle years ago.)

But will John Kerry or Ban Ki Moon mention this when they meet him? Will they even bring up that Abbas' words and his party's actions are a major driver behind the cyber-intifada?

Of course not. They will nod sagely as he pretends that it is all about "hopelessness" and "occupation" and "Al Aqsa" and the myriad other excuses for stabbing Jews in their homeland.

But Abbas, and his people, are inciting people to murder random Jews. We have the proof. And it is proof that Westerners choose to ignore because they need to believe that a somewhat less genocidal Palestinian leader compared to Arafat or the Mufti is in fact moderate by Western standards.

(h/t Ibn Boutros)

As my family beings to settle into a daily routine here in Judea. My husband and I are beginning to establish ourselves in building a small business for ourselves, and it's hard. Working in Israel is tough. Most people do a few things just to make ends meet, but what matters most is that no one ever starves. Jews help each other every day and miracles from G-d are seen. One of the things I do for a living is maintenance and cleaning for the school my daughter attends.

On Fridays, in Area A of the Palestinian Authority, where Jewish land is declared "Judenrein" (Jew-free) I was in the very last classroom closest to the Palestinian village doing my finishing touches before erev Shabbat. Broadcasting from every mosque in sight in a booming decible was the sermon that encourages Palestinians to murder Jews and throw us into the sea. I can understand some Arabic. Something something Allahu Akhbar, something something yehudim, rinse and repeat all over again. This lunacy takes place every Friday in order to annoy Jews as we prepare for our Shabbat. How this people can ever get away from committing violence will be more than a miracle.

Imagine you lived in a village, town or city where recordings were constantly telling you to go out and kill a nation because you were taught false myths from birth that Jews stole from you? The Palestinian clerics use past recordings to instill hatred and terror into their people over and over again. They play it so loud that at 4 am, it's my alarm clock. The Muslim call to prayer outside of the sermon sounds like people groaning who have been stuck in purgatory or hell for thousands of years. IT IS that creepy to listen to. It feels as though any moment, a Palestinian terrorist could descend upon the classroom I am in where all around me is darkness outside and murder me and my daughter. At any moment, it could be any Israeli at any time.

I am usually fear-free as security is all around us. Though not usually seen, it is always there with monitors, electric fencing and guards driving and walking around. I personally like to see the guns in front of me. However, I trust my country implicitely to handle security measures at all times.

When I see no security I feel it isn't there. When I see no guards, I fear for my life. When I am cleaning in this room, I shake. I know the yishuv security is all around me. However, last night another sermon came on their loudspeakers. When your daughter says, "Mom, I'm really scared right now." I'm an Israeli mother now. I'm supposed to be tough. Do I cower in fear and show weakness to a child so new to a language she's never spoken before August? Do I act like a whining two year old to a former home schooled girl just trying to fit in and make friends? Or, do I show her that we are a courageous, resilient people with thousands of years of history. A people who were exiled from our land but who kept our faith. We tried unceasingly to come home - and succeeded More importantly, we are not going to stoop to the level of the Palestinians, a people living in conditions of corruption, drug trafficking and terror. We not will be vigilantes. But we will defend ourselves to the teeth.

The question of why my government allows the mosques that surround Judea and Samaria to broadcast these sermons perplexes me. Why not send in our army to shut down these recordings permanently? Mosques that no one goes to pray in. Why fight terror when allowing these messages to be played deflates the purpose of peace through strength. I don't know which cleric is ranting, but why haven't more been brought to justice for incitement? Why hasn't Raed Salah, head of the Islamic Movement in Israel been put in a jail for life? Why do we allow an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood to exist and live off the fruits of our labor? And when will the Knesset ban these inciters for life, exile them from our land and deport them to the country or their birthplace?

We always hear in Hebrew, "slowly slowly." Unfortunately. We can't afford to slow down legislation against seventh century throwbacks who are not wanted anywhere else in the world. We have been too nice. It is time for the Prime Minister to set his sights on this issue and pass a law banning any and all Mosques from airing their creepy groaning and terror messages for good.

Palestinian schools honor their young terrorists

From AFP, caption by UK Media Watch:

Close-up:

But this isn't the only example of how Palestinian Arabs are honoring student terrorists.

The Palestinian Ministry of Education planted olive trees in honor of the student "martyrs" including Hassan Manasra, who was one of the teens to stab the 13-year old boy on his bike in Pisgat Ze'ev.

Depraved.

10/19 Links Pt2: MSNBC Admits Anti-Israel Graphics Were Wrong; Iranian Leaders Reject Nuclear Deal

From Ian:

MSNBC Admits Anti-Israel Graphics Were ‘Wrong’

MSNBC has admitted that highly controversial graphics aired on the network that depicted Israel as stealing land from the Palestinians were “factually wrong” and that the broadcast would be corrected on Monday, according to a network spokesperson.
The cable news network has been fighting off criticism after it aired the graphics and analysis, including a map linked to conspiracy groups branded as anti-Semitic, that portrayed Israel as existing on territory expropriated from Palestine.
The graphics garnered criticism from pro-Israel advocates and has now prompted the network to acknowledge that the graphics were highly misleading.
“In an attempt to shed light on the geographic context of the Israeli-Palestinian issue, we aired a map that was factually wrong,” the spokesperson said on Sunday.
Two MSNBC broadcasters, Kate Snow and Martin Fletcher, “will address the map in a segment Monday about agendas and disinformation on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” the spokesperson said.
Fletcher, a Middle East analyst, said on Sunday that the map and analyses were “dead wrong.”

MSNBC Apologizes For Palestinian Map-Gate

Sky News fails to challenge lie that Israel plans to destroy al-Aqsa Mosque

First, beginning at roughly the 4:20 mark in the film, note that Rossi falsely claimed that Netanyahu has a secret plan to allow Jews to pray at the Temple Mount / Al-Aqsa Compound.
However, as anyone who’s been following the issue would surely know, the Israeli prime minister has stated repeatedly that there is no such plan to change the status quo, where Jews can visit but not pray. Indeed, Netanyahu recently banned Israeli MKs and ministers (and Arab MKs) from visiting the site in order to prevent the possibility that a visit by a controversial political figure will ignite more violence.
Even worse, the PSC Vice Chair then claims there is a secret plan to destroy the Mosque and build a Third Temple. This also goes unchallenged by Rossi.
He further claims that Israeli security personnel have engaged in “extra-judicial executions”.
The Sky News reporter allowed millions of viewers to hear such PSC propaganda without comment or critical scrutiny.

Israel slams UNESCO vote calling Western Wall Muslim

The proposal to recognize the adjoining Western Wall as a Muslim holy site was submitted by six Muslim countries on behalf of the Palestinians, according to a Ynet news report.
The proposal also calls for the international community to condemn Israel for urging “its citizens to bear arms in light of [the] recent terror wave,” as well as for recent actions by Israel and the Israel Defense Forces in Jerusalem. The document, a copy of which was obtained by Ynet, refers to Jerusalem as “the occupied capital of Palestine.”
In addition, the Palestinians seek condemnation of ongoing Israeli archaeological excavations near the Temple Mount and in Jerusalem’s Old City, as well as of the “aggression and illegal measures taken against the freedom of worship and access of Muslims to Al-Aqsa Mosque and Israel’s attempts to break the status quo since 1967.”
Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely denounced the bid on Monday.
“This shameful and deceitful Palestinian attempt to rewrite history will fail the test of reality,” Hotovely said.
The Likud lawmaker said her ministry is making every effort to see that the bid is voted down by UNESCO on Tuesday.
The proposal is largely expected to pass, as most of UNESCO’s 58 members traditionally support the Palestinian cause.

Another @UNRWA teacher supports stabbing Jews

Alaa Elian is an UNRWA teacher in Gaza.

He recently posted this on Facebook:

I am not even close to running out of examples of UNRWA teachers and employees posting hate.

By the way, one UNRWA worker I exposed recently, Sohaib Fayyad, simply eliminated any mention of UNRWA in his Facebook page and keeps on posting hate.

It seems doubtful that he was fired, because if that was the case he would just list UNRWA as a former job. Instead, he cleansed any mention of UNRWA

(Literally as I was writing this, the page was taken down again.)

Lesson from 1931: It's the antisemitism, stupid

From the Palestine Bulletin, december 15, 1931, reporting on an Islamic conference in Jerusalem.

The incitement - claims of Jews planning to destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque, saying that Jews are desecrating holy places by merely being there, the support for terrorists - is virtually identical to today's incitement.

The hate for Jews today is no different than it was in 1921, 1929 or 1931. It has nothing to do with Israeli actions, nothing to do with settlements, nothing to do with "occupation," nothing to do with Al Aqsa, nothing to do with prisoners or "refugees" or claims of organ-stealing or torture.

It is pure antisemitism.

10/19 Links Pt1: The Deafening Silence; Fatah’s official social media glorifies Martyrdom and murder

From Ian:

Deafening Silence

Instead of recognizing the profound unrest and rise of Palestinian terrorism, many have implicated Israel. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon recently condemned the killings by Israeli forces of four Palestinians—three of whom carried out terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians and were killed during, or subsequent to the attacks. Ki-moon made no mention of the Israelis murdered by these terrorists. He called on Israel to investigate the incidents and “force” they used.
Force? Last time I checked, killing people as they attempt to stab you to death is not an instance of excessive force.
The world must not only condemn the horrific acts of terror; we must also condemn those responsible for inciting the violence. The Palestinian Authority is one group that we must demand be held accountable. In a recent speech on Palestinian TV, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas stated: “We bless every drop of blood that has been spilled for Jerusalem. With the help of Allah, every shaheed (martyr) will be in heaven.” He called on Palestinians to prevent Jews from entering the Temple Mount “by any means possible” and declared that Jews "have no right to defile [Al Aqsa Mosque] with their filthy feet." Days later, he declared the Oslo Accords void in a speech at the United Nations. Throughout the recent wave of terror, Fatah, Abbas’s party, has delivered leaflets in Palestinian towns praising the terrorists, and Fatah Twitter accounts have glorified the attacks. This week, a knife-wielding Gaza cleric called upon his congregants to stab Jews and “cut them into body parts.” He urged some to “restrain the victim, while others attack him with axes and butcher knives.”
The picture in Israel is grim: The country is facing mounting attacks and some Palestinian leaders are calling for a Third Intifada. Life in Israel has drastically changed over the past few weeks: Citizens stay indoors, commuters spend hours longer in their cars to take safer routes, and shops and restaurants are eerily deserted. As time goes on, more and more people know those personally affected by the violence. Nowhere is safe.
Israel is under attack and it is outrageous that the world has remained silent throughout these recent atrocities. It is time for the world to speak up.
The silence is deafening.

Fatah’s official social media promotes and glorifies Martyrdom and murder

While world media is focusing on terror promotion in private social media, the official Palestinian Authority and Fatah social media cannot be ignored. Just as the PA and Fatah leadership started this terror campaign, so too Abbas' party, Fatah, in its official social media, continues to pour fuel on the fire by glorifying terror attacks, murderers, and those seeking Martyrdom-death for Allah (Shahada).
One Fatah tweet showed the image of four terrorists who between them killed 2 and stabbed 7 Israelis, with the following praise:
"Our Martyrs [come] in droves
Our determination is [like] mountains,
it does not bow down before the despicable
and does not fear arrest"
[Fatah Twitter account, Oct. 13, 2015]
The terrorists pictured are Muhannad Halabi, who killed two in the Old City of Jerusalem, Fadi Alloun, who stabbed one, Amjad Al-Jundi, who stabbed one, and Thaer Abu Ghazaleh, who stabbed five. (More details about the attacks below)
Fatah urges Palestinians to seek Martyrdom-death, as often documented by Palestinian Media Watch, presenting it as sweet and desirable.

Netanyahu: Palestinian incitement is 'Osama Bin Laden meets Mark Zuckerberg'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his Likud faction Monday that the current wave of Palestinian violence is the result of social media web sites, singling out Facebook.
Netanyahu said Israeli security officials were aware of the significant impact of incitement garnered from social media, because of what terrorists who attacked Jews over the past few weeks have written on their private Facebook pages.
"What has been going on is due to the combination of the Internet and Islamic extremism," Netanyahu said. "It has been Osama Bin Laden meets [Facebook founder] Mark Zuckerberg."
Netanyahu said Israel was in "a lengthy struggle" and expressed full confidence that the Jewish state would win. He urged citizens to respect the law and not take it into their own hands, as happened Sunday night when Israelis attacked an Eritrean who was thought to have been a suicide bomber.
Bayit Yehudi leader Naftali Bennett criticized Netanyahu for enabling the construction of security barriers between the Jerusalem neighborhoods of Armon Hanatziv and Jabel Mukaber. At a meeting of his faction, he slammed the international community for not showing Israel enough support as it fights terror.
"Part of the world is morally confused and unsure who is the aggressor," Bennett said, purposely speaking in English. "I call upon our friends around the world to support us. Those around the world who gives us grades and advice: Wake up. We might be on the front lines now, but this war is also in your country. Don't find yourselves on the wrong side of history."

Deputy Foreign Minister Blames Abbas for 'Culture of Death'

Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely (Likud) laid the blame for the current terror wave in Israel on Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, in an editorial published in the Wall Street Journal Monday.
The latest surge of Arab terror attacks against Jews, she said, immediately followed a "well-orchestrated campaign of violence" and "explicit calls by the Palestinian leadership to 'spill blood.'”
She quoted Abbas, who said on PA television on September 16: “We welcome every drop of blood spilled in Jerusalem. This is pure blood, clean blood, blood on its way to Allah. With the help of Allah, every martyr will be in heaven, and every wounded will get his reward.”
Two weeks later, she noted, terrorists murdered a Jewish couple, Eitam and Naama Henkin, in front of their four children.
The PA made clear that it approved of the murder.

"Non-political" UNRWA schools in Lebanon hold rallies supporting "Jerusalem intifada"

UNRWA is officially a non-political organization. As its director said in a 2009 speech:

UNRWA is non-political in nature and orientation. Our mandate rests on humanitarian and human development work and is underpinned by core United Nations precepts of neutrality and impartiality.

Last week, UNRWA students in Lebanon held a rally "supporting the Jerusalem intifada and supporting the Al Aqsa Mosque":

They were saying things like "With our blood and soul we will redeem you, oh Al-Aqsa" and "Million martyrs marching towards Jerusalem."

This rally was ostensibly organized only by the students of an UNRWA school, not the staff, even though it seems unlikely that students themselves could organize such a rally without logistical help from adults.

It also is difficult to conceive that these students that happen to go to an UNRWA school decided on their own to do something that contradicts the supposedly non-political nature of their lessons.

Moreover, this article indicates that a similar rally held yesterday in Lebanon was organized by UNRWA itself.

On Sunday, UNRWA schools in Lebanon organized a rally of solidarity with the Palestinian people and their legitimate struggle for freedom, return and independence, and in condemnation of the "Israeli" aggression and the repeated incursions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

UNRWA's pretense to be non-political is more and more absurd every day.

(h/t Ibn Boutros)

File photo

This news is all over Arab media this morning.

The Director of Al-Aqsa Mosque, Omar Kiswani, told the Anatolia news agency that that the number of Jewish "intruders to the Al-Aqsa Mosque" in Jerusalem, has significantly decreased during the last two weeks.

Kiswani said in a statement, "We saw over the past two weeks a clear decline in the number of incursions of the "Al-Aqsa Mosque," and we do not see Israeli political figures among the intruders."

He said that 29 "settlers" "stormed" into the "Al-Aqsa Mosque" Sunday, adding: "There is a decline in their numbers, usually on {Sundays] there are close to 100 invaders."

The subtext is that the Palestinian Arabs who are being killed while trying to stab Jews are being vindicated in that they have managed to scare some Jews from ascending to the Temple Mount during this terror spree in Jerusalem.

When Arabs claim that Israel treats their lives as cheap, remember that they view the lives of their children as far, far cheaper.

Look how much Mahmoud Abbas is trying to calm things down!

You know how the media keeps saying that Mahmoud Abbas is trying to stop the current terror spree from becoming a full-blown intifada?

Here are some photos posted on Fatah's official Facebook page over the past couple of days.

Today, support for an armed uprising:

Yesterday, glorification of an armed uprising:

Yesterday, incitement with a cartoon from an antisemite:

Caption: "Making the life for the occupier as hard as possible is the duty of the occupied. It's anti-colonialism!

Yesterday, a typical call for peace:

Yesterday: Antisemitism and incitement

Saturday, glorifying the firebombing of an Israeli bus which they brag injured the driver:

And, yes, Abbas' Fatah party officially glorifies stabbing Israelis as well:

Abbas is the head of Fatah and he is encouraging violence, not trying to stop it.

Propaganda lesson: How Iran creates news stories from thin air

Iran's Mehr News reports:

Russian jets forced Israeli fighter-bombers to change their course when trying to enter the Syrian airspace.

Russian Aerospace Force warplanes operating in Syria forced Israeli fighter-bombers to change their course when trying to enter the airspace of the Arab nation on espionage missions.

The Israeli Yedioth Ahronoth daily quoted Lebanese diplomatic sources saying that the event took place yesterday after Russian radars detected various Zionist fighters flying close to the Syrian territory.

Now, Mehr News isn't exactly the most reliable news outlet. but it is quoting Yediot Aharonot, and Yediot has some standards.

So what did Yediot say?

Russian forces warned Israel over IAF flights in Russian controlled airspace near the Syrian–Lebanese border area after Israeli jets were detected nearby, according to a report Friday in the Lebanese media outlet As Safir.

The report comes a mere day after Russia announced that it had established a "hotline" with Israel in order to coordinate aerial activity over Lebanon and Syria.

As Safir quoted Lebanese diplomatic officials who were "in the know," as saying that the warning was issued after Russian radar identified Israeli aircraft approaching Russian-controlled airspace two weeks ago.

"Russian aircraft immediately blocked the Israeli jets' path while they flew above the Akkar region in northern Lebanon. The Russians immediately sent a clear warning to the Israelis that entering Syrian airspace would be a pretext for opening fire," the source said.

How would a Lebanese source know what messages are being sent between Russia and Israel?

The answer is in the next paragraph:

According to the paper, which is considered loyal to Hezbollah, the Israeli aircraft quickly heeded the warnings and changed their course.

Iran instructed Hezbollah to "leak" a story to make Zionists afraid of Russia, an Israeli news outlet reported it with somewhat proper skepticism, and Iranian media now uses the Israeli report as proof that it is true.

News laundering.

Israeli restaurant offers 50% off - if Arabs and Jews share the table

The Hummus Bar, a family restaurant in Kfar Vitkin, Israel, has an intifada special.

On their Facebook page they write:

Afraid of Arabs?

Afraid of Jews?

No Arabs with us!

But there are also no Jews...

What we do have are human beings! Our Arab hummus is excellent! Our Jewish falafel is praiseworthy! And refills are free! (I think that is the translation...)

Special: 50% discount on hummus dishes for tables where Arabs and Jews sit together!
Valid Sunday-Thursday.

The restaurant is kosher, which means that it is Halal as well

Except for the Heineken beer they serve.

There are hundreds of comments, some from around the world, and most are positive. But I don't know if anyone has taken the restaurant up on the offer yet.

.@UNRWA "youth ambassador" releases new song glorifying violence as UN plays dumb

UNRWA's "youth ambassador" and former Arab Idol winner Mohammed Assaf has released a music video that shows that he supports violence.

The video includes romantic scenes of rock throwing and firebombs.

The lyrics also indicate that Nazareth is "occupied," meaning that Assaf is singing to destroy Israel, not just end the "occupation."

The headline in Palestine Press Agency about this video says that it shows that Assaf is involved with the "Al Quds uprising."

The UN, when asked about UNRWA employees spreading hate on social media, claims that "it remains to be seen" if the people posting this hate are really employees at UNRWA.

Because, you know, when people say they work at UNRWA, display UNRWA certificates that they received, show photos of their schools and classrooms, it could all be a big Zionist hoax.

UN Watch issued a statement about this:

"This is absurd — the UN is trying to stick its head in the sand,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, a Geneva-based non-governmental organization that monitors the world body.

“We have presented Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon with new and unequivocal evidence of at least ten self-described UNRWA officials engaged in racist incitement, so it’s simply outrageous for the world body — which famously makes snap condemnations in situations when it has seen no evidence — to ignore what everyone can see with their own eyes,” said Neuer.

“UN Watch’s report includes archived screenshots as well as live links to antisemitic incitement by UNRWA officials, many of whom post pictures of themselves teaching in UNRWA classrooms,” added Neuer.

WAR CRIME!! ARAB HUMILIATED! (he also shot lots of Jews and killed one) (update)

There was another horrific attack, this time at the Beersheva bus station.

One person was killed and six wounded after two terrorists carried out an attack at the central bus station in Beersheba on Sunday night.

Israel Police said that the two suspects entered the bus station, where one of them fired shots while the other stabbed.

The wounded were brought to Soroka University Medical Center where one person who was initially critically hurt eventually died of his wounds. One person was in critical condition, four were moderately wounded and one was lightly wounded. One of the terrorists was killed while the second terrorist was shot and apprehended.

ABC News producer Nasser Atta tweeted this description of the video below:

The video he linked to also described the scene as "Palestinians wounded are tortured and humiliated by the Israeli army."

This occurs seconds after the attack, and clearly the terrorist is being held in place by a chair to make sure that he cannot get up and kill some more. It is true that one Israeli appears to angrily throw a row of seats at the terrorist.

But Nasser Atta and the Arab who posted the video are far more concerned about the humiliation suffered by this terrorist in his moment of glory than about the actual victims.

The same thing happened with the Arab world angrily sharing video of the child terrorist who was apparently harshly insulted by an Israeli with the camera, heard calling him a "son of a whore" multiple times, right after he stabbed a 12 year old Israeli boy leaving a candy shop on his bike.

Apparently, humiliating Arabs is a war crime. There is nothing worse.

Murdering Israelis is a natural reaction to the humiliation Arabs feel all the time. And here's proof - Israelis are humiliating these intifada heroes!

Nothing shows the difference bwteeen the West and the honor/shame society of the Arab world better than these. It is a world where murdering Jewish kids or old people is honorable, but insulting the murderers is an affront to the entire Palestinian Arab society - at least the majority that wholeheartedly supports the murders.

(UPDATE: Apparently the person beaten in that video was an Eritean who was mistaken as another terrorist.)
