Abbas’ advisor: Israel is a “satanic project” created by colonialism
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash: "The British Mandate opened the doors to Jewish immigration to Palestine and brought in strangers who had no connection to Palestine ... Maybe the world will not recognize the political entity but rather [only] a part of the historical homeland, but the historical homeland will remain all of Palestine for all the Palestinians... Colonialism wanted to divide the region and plant in the heart of this region a foreign element that is Israel, so that it will remain an arena of tension... A people that is foreign to the region and a friend of the colonialist states: The Jews. So, they created the Zionist idea... This satanic project, the colonial project of Palestine and the theft of Palestine."

The Palestinians have no history prior to the modern period; an abundance of evidence proves Jewish history in Israel.
