“Of course, Israel cannot be expected to negotiate with anyone who is dedicated to its destruction. But while I know you have had differences with the Palestinian Authority, I believe that you do have a true partner in President Abbas…” — Barack Obama, March 21, 2013
“PA and Fatah demonization: Israel worse than Islamic State terrorists,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik, Palestinian Media Watch, March 1, 2015:
The Palestinian Authority and Fatah have a long tradition of demonizing Jews and Israelis, as documented by Palestinian Media Watch. Both organizations employ a plethora of libels and lies to present Israelis as evil.
With the rise of Islamic State and the exposure of its atrocities, the PA and Fatah now have a new focus for their demonization. Whereas in the past the PA often cried that Israel and Jews are worse than the Nazis, their new theme is that Israel is worse than the Islamic State. At times they add that Israel, with the US, even controls the Islamic State.
Likewise, when the Israeli Electric Company recently cut off electricity to two Palestinian towns for a limited period of time in order to pressure the PA to pay part of its billion shekel debt to Israel for electricity, a cartoon in the official PA daily presented Israel as a masked Islamic State fighter about to cut off the head of a hostage. The executioner’s mask is marked with the Star of David and he is holding a knife shaped as lightning, symbolizing electricity. [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Feb. 25, 2015]

The 4th Conference of the Academy of Islamic Research: Arab Theologians on Jews and Israel. Sept. 1968 Translated by D.F. Green/David G. Littman (Support Secure Freedom)Front to back; 95 pages of outrageous lies, inversion and vile Jew-Hatred. I’ve read this whole thing. I invite you to find any comparison with Jewish, Christain or Buddhist “Conferences”.

Read Andrew Bostom’s The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism and read from page 51 on the above topic to page 53 the 2003 Putrajaya Islamic Summit and a little beyond to a speech by Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi on the same page. The whole chapter is one horrific example after another of Islamic mass murder and pogroms but go ahead and start with this:
Supplemental Article “The First and Last Enemy: Jew Hatred in Islam.” by Bostom

And this:
Dr. Wafa Sultan exposes Islamic values with Sheikh Omar Bakri Muhammad

This less than 8-minute video segment, if viewed objectively and dispassionately, could do more to educate the American public on the theory animating the practice of “Islamic international relations,” without any further explanation required.

They are so foolish, they keep proving themselves unfit to any negotiation or worth any concession.
Richie says
Obama agrees.
He WILL side with the Islamic State over Israel

“Moderate” Palestinian Authority: Israel worse than Islamic State
……………………..
Well, of course they are. The Islamic State is just beheading Christians, Yazidis, journalists and aid workers—whereas Israel is actually trying to prevent pious Muslims from waging violent Jihad!
Of course, that doesn’t seem to be all that “moderate” a position…
As for that grotesque cartoon, maybe I should just stop paying my PG&E bill, and send them a similar cartoon when I get my service cut off. That oughta work…sarc/off

PROJECTION!
Psychological projection is the act or technique of defending the self-image against unpleasant, immature or neurotic impulses by denying their existence in oneself, while attributing them to others. For example, a person who is rude may accuse other people of being rude.
Muslim apologists attribute to ‘others’ all the immoral traits people find reprehensible in themselves and other Muslims.
Godwin says
So what about Hamas, which was recently been declared as terrorists by an Egyptian court ? Is it the same as IS or worse ? It was the sole cause of the destruction of GAZA by firing rockets into Israel.
Andrew GB says
Fair play to the PA, I didn’t think they had a sense of humor. Good cartoon.
As an Englishman, I’d rather wander into Israel by mistake than an ISIS controlled area!! I am struggling to understand a couple of things.
1, Israel is being castigated for cutting the power off. Its their power for one, they have provided power whist not being paid – which they didnt have to and yet the world says ‘bad Israel’ ???? Might try that approach with my energy provider. Don’t pay, run up debt then whine about how unfair it is. Why isn’t the world saying pay your bills and stop buying weapons.
2, and this question is sincere…. why, oh why are the Israelis so tollerent?? Persecuted since records began, suffered and continued to suffer terrible atrocities against them and still show dignified restraint. I have never heard of a jew say death to mohamidans, i dont see the manchester jews causing trouble, resentment and fear (apart from their driving!!! Now that is criminal!!!!!) i HONESTLY dont get why the jews are persecuted? I STAND WITH ISRAEL.
TheCountess says
Wonderful observation and to the point, not omitting the jocularity. Could it be that the Jew answers to the Higher Power and thus allows conscience to lead? Even with no open declaration in most of what gets printed today, they are still a chosen people with unfulfilled prophecy in the making. And that power is what is in control, not man. The title has a name. God, Jehovah.
Andrew GB says
Agreed and thank you Countess.

Riiiiight. Israel, who grants arabs and muslims many more rights than they’d have in arab and islamic countries – especially in the islamic state – is worse than the islamic state, which is busy killing arabs and other muslims, anad which would gleefully destroy Israel and kill any and all all the Jews it could get its hands on. On the same line of thinking, the average Joe on the street carrying a concealed gun for protection is worse than the pack of criminals coming his way to kill and rob him.
As if we needed more evidence to stop supporting “palestine”. Which leftist and “human rights” advocates will never do, regardless of whatever the “palestinians” do – as long as they keep blaming Israel for everything, no one will ever call them out because, as “experts” tell us, regardless of the overwhelming amount of evidence to the contrary, terrorism is caused by poverty, grievances and “oppression”.
