Dr.
As’ad Abdul Rahman is a Palestinian politician. He has been a Palestinian
National Council member, member of the Palestinian Central Council and also a
member of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization,
although he seems to have resigned from the PLO Central Council.
He
is considered a respected analyst, a fixture on Arabic TV, being interviewed by
the BBC and other media outlets.
Today
in a UAE newspaper he describes “the roots of Israeli
racism.” He describes three reasons “Israelis” are racist,
but one doesn’t have to dig too deep to see that he really means Jews.
The
first is that Jews believe that the Torah is the infallible word of God.
The
second is that the Jews believe that the Talmud is more important than the
Torah and it is filled with racism and instructions to treat non-Jews with
disgust.
The
third is that Ashkenazic Jews, deep down, know that they are really Khazars and
not Jewish at all, so they need to cover up for this fact by acting brutally
towards non-Jews.
This
is once again the sort of everyday antisemitism published in Arab media and
held by Palestinian leaders. And it is exactly the sort of story that the Western
media won’t touch because the meme of “moderate Palestinians” is too
sacred to disturb.
