So Abu Mazan / Abbas is still on his long walk back from his PhD in denying the Holocaust. Here’s his latest little step in the cynical manipulation of the world’s media as breathlessly reported by The Times of Israel or the Jerusalem Post.
Below is the FULL statement as reported by WAFA News Agency.
RAMALLAH, April 27, 2014 (WAFA) – In response to a question on the occasion of Holocaust Day, raised in conversation with Rabbi Marc Schneier, President Mahmoud Abbas said that: what happened to the Jews in the Holocaust is the most heinous crime to have occurred against humanity in the modern era. He expressed his sympathy with the families of the victims and many other innocent people who were killed by the Nazis.
President Abbas stressed that the Holocaust is a reflection of the concept of ethnic discrimination and racism which the Palestinians strongly reject and act against.
‘The world must do its utmost to fight racism and injustice in order to bring justice and equality to oppressed people wherever they are. The Palestinian people, who suffer from injustice, oppression and denied freedom and peace, are the first to demand to lift the injustice and racism that befell other peoples subjected to such crimes.’
‘On the incredibly sad commemoration of Holocaust Day, we call on the Israeli government to seize the current opportunity to conclude a just and comprehensive peace in the region, based on the two states vision, Israel and Palestine living side by side in peace and security.’
M.N
Sorry people, “innocent” in an Islamic code word. Jews and Christians are not innocent: we falsified the Torah and bible to remove all references to Muhammad. We are guilty of this and many other crimes. He may express sympathy with the innocent, however not many of the 6 million Jews amongst the 11 million slaughtered by the Nazis were innocent.
An expression of sympathy is great but immediately the entire thrust of this piece is a dubious linkage with the his own cause. There is no comparison. There is no genocide of the Palestinian people: their numbers have only grown and grown. That is not the mark of genocide.
Don’t be fooled by the smooth talking charlatan. He is the same snake tongued terrorist dictator whose democratic mandated expired many years ago.
And finally: say it again in Arabic sir.
