PLO Urges Media Outlets & Journalists Not to Use the Term, ‘Temple Mount’

In a blatant attempt to further erase Jewish history, and strengthen the propaganda war against Israel, Mahmoud Abbas’s faction has sent out a notice to journalists that they should use ‘Al Aqsa Mosque Compound’ in describing Judaism’s most holy site.

By Ari Soffer

 

PA chief Mahmoud Abbas’s Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) has issued special instructions to members of the international media, urging them to stop using the term “Temple Mount,” and to instead refer to the holy site as “the Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound” or “Haram al-Sharif/Noble Sanctuary.”

In a blatant attempt to impose a discourse erasing any reference to the Jewish character of the site, the PLO “media advisory” claims that the “Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound, sometimes referred to as the Noble Sanctuary (“Haram al-Sharif” in Arabic), is the compound that contains Al Aqsa building itself, ablution fountains, open spaces for prayer, monuments and the Dome of the Rock building.

Muslim Reporter: Virus of anti-Semitism has infected British Muslims

The sorry truth is that Muslims are not only the victims of religious & racial prejudice but active purveyors of it.

By Mehdi Hasan

 

 

If tomorrow, God forbid, I were to cause the death of an innocent man with my car, minutes after sending a series of texts on my mobile phone, I’m guessing I’d spend the rest of my life riddled with guilt. What I wouldn’t do is go on television and lay the blame for my subsequent 12-week imprisonment at the door of . . . wait for it . . . the Jews. Yet that’s what the Labour peer Nazir Ahmed did in April 2012 – less than five years after causing a car crash on the M1 in which Martin Gombar, aged 28, was killed. Continue Reading »

By Ari Soffer

 

The official Facebook page Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah party has posted a cartoon comparing the three kidnapped Israeli students to rats.

The post on the “Palestinian National Liberation Movement “Fatah” / Central Page” shows three rats with Stars of David dangling from a fishing rod; its implications are unmistakable.

The sickening cartoon illustrates the mixed messages sent by the PA; on the one hand, Abbas promised to help Israel find the abducted teens – even as a senior PA official denied his administration would take any responsibility for the kidnappings. Continue Reading »

Egypt’s leading daily presents its latest “Zionist conspiracy” theory

Egypt’s top newspaper is basically using a camel-droppings angle in its latest ‘Jews-poisoning-the-well’ story.

What is strange here is that Al-Ahram effectively admits this is a conspiracy theory. Weird…

 

 

Today, the most widely circulating Egyptian newspaper, Al-Ahram, has run a front-page report headlined in red and bold, ”Israeli conspiracy on Sinai’s underground water.”

In a black bold lead, the report stresses that ”liberating Sinai and restoring its territories from Israeli occupation was not merely our dream; the dream was to develop this region to be our real exit from all economic troubles.”
