Official Palestinian Authority Newspaper: Israel “More Loathsome” than Nazis

An anti-Semitic cartoon published previously by the PA daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida.

Israel’s treatment of Palestinians is worse than anything carried out by Hitler and the Nazis during the Holocaust, according to the official Palestinian Authority daily newspaper.

Three recent articles in Al-Hayat Al-Jadida claim that Israel’s behavior is worse than that of the Nazis. The articles use such terms as “loathsome,” “dangerous and criminal” and “despicable” to describe Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and Arabs.

The following are excerpts from the three articles:

“It looks like the Palestinian National Authority is simultaneously facing war on a number of fronts…

Among the volatile topics is the insane settlement enterprise that the Netanyahu government continues, using racist settlers, who behave more like wounded and mad wolves aroused by the smell of blood, and whose actions against our people are more loathsome than any Zionist story about the Nazi Holocaust.” – [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 6, 2012]

“Members of the Jewish religion must awaken from the coma of historical distortion, which was fabricated by the Zionist movement and world capitalists, the very same [capitalists] who wheel and deal in the Nazi and Fascist slaughter of Jews during WWII.  Since what they (i.e., the Jews) are doing in Palestine against the Palestinian Arab people is more dangerous and criminal than what Hitler’s Holocaust brought on the Jews and the nations of the world of the 1940s.” – [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 18, 2012]

“The Al-Quds Open University branch in northern Gaza screened the documentary film Two Holocausts with director Dr. Suwailam Al-Abbasi and other film participants attending.  Also attending was the University Vice President for Gaza Affairs, Dr. Jihad al-Batsh… who declared that the film is an attempt to appeal to the viewer’s conscience by presenting the main cases of slaughter perpetrated by the occupation’s gangs against the Palestinian people.  Al-Batsh added that the film shows that Israel and the Zionist movement are doing to the Palestinian people what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, in the same way, but in a more despicable manner.” – [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 20, 2012]

The author is the founder of Palestinian Media Watch which has documented PA Holocaust denial and distortion.

  • Please have the Mossad distribute the right gifts to all these cuties.

  • Yet Barak wants to pull out of the West Bank. Because it worked so well in South Lebenon and Gaza.

  • As an avid supporter of Israel and someone who considers radical Muslim the greatest danger in the world today. There is one area that really bothers me about Israeli policy.

    I believe that the continous building and expanding of settlements is the number one killer of our image across the world. It does so much harm in our public relations campaign and it baffles me that we continue to do it. Whenever the topic of Israel comes up with my friends or acquaitances it is inevitable the the settlements would be brought up in a very negative light.

    I would like anybody who genuinely can educate me on the rationale of this policy to send me an email directly at jerrykleiner@rogers.com

    I wish tomorrow Netanyahu made a public announcement that from this day forward there will be absolutely no more building or expanding on settlements.

    • I’m with you on all points, Jerry.

    • You sound very confused. If your a christian then you should know this land was promised to Abraham as an everlasting convenant (agreement) and the land belongs to the Jews. We Jews started returning to Israel in 1880, there were No Arabs there. It was only after the jews returned Israel into a garden by draining swamps and irrigating desert scub land did syrians, egyptians and other arabs started immigrating to Israel as immigrant workers. 2 Arabs didn’t call them selves Palistinians untill after the 1967 war, which is when reclaimed Judea and Samria and all Jerusalem from Jordon who had stolen it from us in 1948 war. That is why jews continue to settle in Our land, because the Living G-D gave it to us, and Y’shua (jesus) proclaimed that all things promissed by G-D would never changed, Matthew 5:17 thru 19.

    • Jerry. I believe that this is only one in a long line of anti-Zionist/anti-semitic excuses. The ONLY thing Israel and world Jewery can do to appease the far left, the facists, and the Arabs and Muslims can do is die. And I doubt many of us intend to go quietly.

  • So as far as the ‘PALESTINKIAN’S’ are concerned their treatment by Israel is far worse than anything that the Nazis meted out to the Jews! Have Palestinians been subjected to slave labor camps, have they been battered to death by rifle-buts, have they been hanged en mass, have they been medically experimented on, ie. have their legs been injected with poison, have their eyes been injected with a die to change the color, have they been put into gas-chambers and murdered en-masse, have they been put into ovens and incinerated en mass, have they been starved, reduced to walking skeletons, These F—ing Taqiyya merchants, because that is exactly what they are, f—ing lying bastards who will stoop to anything in order to twist history around for their convenience, may they all rot in hell.

  • I suggest that all these “eminent ” Palestinians pay a visit to YAD VASHEM. !!!!!
    I spent the morning there last week and there is not the slightest, and I emphasize ” Not The Slightest” comparison between the two. Simply put, if this was the case ALL Palestinians would have either been deported by cattle train or GASSED and BURNT or BOTH !!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Not one would be alive in the area by now. the biggest LIE in the world is not the Holocaust, but the DENIAL OF THE HOLOCAUST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What makes them think anyone cares that the Jews are treating them like they are Jews being oppressed and murdered by (their allies), the Nazis, when nobody cared back then that the Nazis were murdering Jews so who are they trying to appeal to? The Jews? ’cause who else would care? And if it is they have a funny way of expressing it because the only people who care about the death of Jews are the Jews.

  • The reality is that during WW2 the Arabs including The Muslim Brotherhood supported Hitler and his Final Solution…Arabs throughout the Middle East rallied behind The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem who was living in Berlin. He worked closely with Himmler to slaughter hundreds of thousands of Jews. He broadcast his “accomplishments” every week by radio to a totally supportive Arab world…As Churchill said in THE GATHERING STORM in 1948:..MEIN KAMPF was the new KORAN….

  • THERE IS ONLY ONE SOLUTION TO THE “PALESTINIAN” PROBLEM: ALL ARABS MUST BE REPATRIATED TO THEIR ANCESTORS’ LANDS IN THE ARABIAN PENINSULA. ONLY THE ARABS NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF AL AQSA MOSQUE WILL CONTINUE LIVING IN CISJORDAN.

    THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO PUT AN END TO THE CONFLICT BETWEEN ARABS AND ISRAELIS THAT LASTS FOR NEARLY A CENTURY. THE WEST SHOULD ACCEPT AND IMPLEMENT THE REQUIRED STEPS WITHOUT DELAY.

  • Israel is not to blame for Gaza, or the West Bank. Palestinians freely elected Hamas in 2006, knowing how radical they were, and turning Gaza into a launching area for more than 2000 mortars, and rockets since 2006 is their choice. Abbas and Haniyeh won’t be holding unifying elections. Palestinian troubles are the fault of their leadership not Israel’s.

    • Hm,I wonder if the “Palestinian people” really believe this nonsense. What Israel is doing is worse than killing & starving 6 million Jews, including 1.5 million children? And a “coma of historical distortion, which was fabricated by the Zionist movement and world capitalists, the very same [capitalists] who wheel and deal in the Nazi and Fascist slaughter of Jews during WWII.” Gimme a break here.

  • Who has been “suffering” for the last 64 years,
    the Jews or the Palestinians?

  • Are you surprised?

  • The abuse of historical events for the purpose of propagandistic analogies not only damages the process’ validity but reduces the creator’s credibility. Whatever case the Palestinians have is reduced to the non-sensical. Exagerative advertising sells delusion which feeds on itself. Like cancer. Why? B
    ecause they, Palestiniana have a visionless, corrupt, ineffective leadership.

  • Well, the good news, I guess, is that they’re admitting that the Holocaust actually happened.

    Jonathan Ames, ‘Herring Wonder’ and HBO Series Creator, Does Israel

    Writer Jonathan Ames, creator of the HBO television series “Bored to Death,” is known for his fearless and exhibitionistic persona. One can find YouTube videos of him eating herring and boxing at the same time, having knives thrown at him by a person called “Throwdini,” and ranting drunkenly at an awards ceremony. And when it comes to writing, Ames’s essays tend to cover racy topics. Given these exploits, it’s a bit surprising to learn that Ames’s recent trip to Israel [...]

    At first you may be skeptical of Isaiah Richardson Jr. He doesn’t look like somebody who would be playing Hava Nagila for passengers waiting for their train in the subway. Firstly, he seems too young,  and secondly, he’s a black kid from the Bronx, dressed sharply, derby hat and all. But when upon meeting Isaiah, the 32-year-old ticked off “Hevenu Shalom Aleichem,” “Bashana Haba’ah,” and “Zum Gali Gali” as some of his favorite songs to play passing crowds, I knew [...]
