Newsweek: Palestinian Incitement: Hate-Speech That Kills

[6chars]

Palestinian incitement and hate-speech, especially the condoning of the cold-blooded murder of Jews, has at the time of writing been linked to the murder of 30 Israelis over the last four months.

On January 17, one of these 30 victims, 39-year-old mother of six Daphna Meir, was stabbed to death in her home, in front of her children, by a Palestinian youth from a nearby village. While in custody, the youth admitted to having committed the murder after being influenced by official Palestinian television programming that vilified Israel and glorified acts of violence.

Not limited only to suggestive themes and implicit condoning of terrorism, officially affiliated Palestinian media have repeatedly issued explicit calls to murder Jews. As a case in point, on January 4, two weeks before the murder of Daphna Meir, a Fatah-run television channel broadcast a music video calling on Palestinians to “drown them [the Jews] in a sea of blood” and to “kill them as you wish.” The chairman of Fatah’s Central Committee is none other than Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas.

Understandably embarrassed by the increasingly obvious connection between Palestinian hate-speech and acts of Palestinian terror, some Palestinians and Palestinian sympathizers have come up with a tactic for deflecting criticism: flip the coin on its head by denying the acts of terror and by accusing the victim, Israel, of incitement.

1. get ready for the ad homs directed at the author.

It's about time the MSM starts paying attention to the state sponsored child abuse being perpetrated by Fatah and Hamas. No western country would tolerate this kind of disgusting behavior towards children.

3. No IMO Tzipi Hotovely is an honest spokesperson for the current Israeli government -more about her

Hotovely rejects Palestinian statehood aspirations, supporting a Greater Israel spanning over the entire land of current Israel along with the Palestinian territories. She later reiterated her hardline position in a speech to Israeli diplomats on 22 May 2015, rejecting criticism from the international community regarding the West Bank settlement policies and saying that Israel has tried too hard to appease the world and must stand up for itself. She has also stated that she will make every effort to achieve global recognition for West Bank settlements (a move which is widely opposed by the international community), as well as asserting that Israel owes no apologies for its policies in the Holy Land towards the Palestinians. She justified her position as she referenced religious texts to back her belief that Judea and Samaria belongs to the Jewish people.

4. World May Find Israel's New Deputy Foreign Minister Hard to Swallow

Source: Haaretz, May 15, 2015

In the absence of an acting foreign minister, spotlight will be on Tzipi Hotovely, a hardliner who opposes two-state solution and supports annexation of West Bank.

After a long and strenuous saga of negotiations and delays, Israel's new government was finally sworn in on Thursday, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in charge of several ministries - including the Foreign Ministry.

But in the absence of a dedicated, full-time foreign minister (at least until Zionist Union's Isaac Herzog joins the coalition, as some analysts predict), it will fall to Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely (Likud) to handle what promises to be an "interesting" term: Continued efforts by the Palestinians to internationalize the conflict, including charging Israel in the International Criminal Court, an ongoing drive to boycott Israel and the settlements, and an increasingly tense relationship with the United States.

Hotovely's stances may put her on a collision course with the international community: A hardliner with regards to the Palestinians, Hotovely opposes the two-state solution and is in favor of annexing the West Bank (which she terms Judea and Samaria, using the biblical names for the region).

Hotovely believes that after annexation Israel could initiate a gradual process of granting Israeli citizenship to the Palestinians.
The international community may also find Hotovely's stance on intermarriage hard to swallow: In her capacity as chairwoman of the Status of Women Committee in the Knesset in 2011, she invited the racist group Lehava to explain how they prevent romantic contacts between Jews and Arabs. Responding to criticism, Hotovely said it was "important to examine procedures for preventing mixed marriages, and Lehava members are the right people for that," Walla reported.

In this case, when the author of the OP is a racist, it's appropriate to kill the messenger. It seems as if Newsweek is actually trying to present a variety of perspectives on the I/P issue, so I have no problem with what Newsweek is doing, I just think it's worth pointing out that the author of the OP is a racist.

5. Lol, if Israel's insane shitbag of a chief diplomat says it, it MUST be true.

Maybe the OP could hold a seance and get Baruch Goldstein and Meir Kahane to weigh in.
