PA Daily says "Jews have no national historical roots in Palestine or in the Arab region," denying masses of evidence to the contrary

Excerpt of a column by Muwaffaq Matar, Fatah Revolutionary Council member and regular columnist for the official PA daily

Headline: “Democratic nationalism”

“The invading Zionist Jews of the occupation and apartheid system (Israel) [parentheses in source], which has flooded the world with a claim that it is an oasis of democracy in the Middle East, have no national historical roots in Palestine or in the Arab region (sic., genetic research has conclusively proven modern Jews share a common origin in Israel). With their crimes and the massacres that they committed under the auspices of British colonialism, they proved that they are invaders similar to the Europeans who invaded the American continent and worked diligently to exterminate the Indian people. Likewise, the leaders of Israel since its establishment were and still are enemies of democracy – whose meaning is peace, rights, justice, and human dignity without discrimination.”
