Obstructing Peace and Rewarding Terror: Business as Usual at the EU
A standing ovation for slandering Israel.
June 27, 2016
A standing ovation for slandering Israel.
In a speech on “Brexit” day to the EU parliament, Mahmoud Abbas claimed (without a shred of evidence) that Israeli rabbis had called for the poisoning of Palestinians’ water supply and prophesied that were it not for Israel’s behavior, terrorism would cease to exist everywhere. His preposterous words were met with a standing ovation. During the same trip to Brussels, Abbas rejected an invitation to meet with Israel’s president, Reuven Rivlin. Evelyn Gordon comments:
A standing ovation for slandering Israel.
A significant blind spot in a brilliant book.
An unequivocal historical record.
The principle of havdalah.
A point of controversy.
