How to hate the Jews? The Palestinian Authority counts the ways!
Of course the Palestinians hate the Jews. Palestinian Media Watch has reported for years on the endless stream of Jew-hatred that the Palestinian Authority constantly disseminates. However, even by PA hate-standards, a recent item published in its official daily deserves honorable mention. The article is written as a letter to the writer's German friend named Thomas in which he spews just about every libel he can think of against the Jews and uses that as justification for why Europeans and Arabs should hate them:
"Thomas, I have been monitoring them [Jews] in my land for 76 years (i.e., since Israel's statehood). I have been monitoring their actions and their disgraceful deeds… I have been monitoring their dreams, which seek to concentrate all the happiness in the world in their hands. I have been monitoring their behavior, which is filled with barbarism and bloodthirstiness. I have been monitoring their voices, which call for superiority and arrogance, and claim that they are the only ones close to Heaven...
I have been monitoring what the world says about them, from all corners of the globe, and I see and understand the damage they have done to people, and how they have monopolized life and considered it their property and possession. The same is true of their situation on everything concerning money, power, arrogance, impudence, and declaring publicly – without convincing excuses and in a shameless fashion – that they are the children and beloved of Allah, while the others are his slaves and nothing more…They want to subjugate the entire world, and not just my Palestinian people...
Yes, Thomas. I have been monitoring them to know what kind of people they are, what they are made of, what characteristics they have inherited, and why they behave this way that the world fears and worries about – in the West, in the East, in the North, and in the South – and why they are busy creating lobbies to pressure states, peoples, institutions, bodies, and centers of power and influence in the world...
Thomas, ever since they – and I mean the Israelis – are in our Palestinian land at the expense of a people, land, values, history, and dreams, they operate by the culture of intimidation, not only towards us but towards all the region's peoples... They have painted our lands with blood and flooded the space with fear, as they have flooded our cemeteries with laments... The only scents lingering there are the smell of gunpowder and corpses."

This profound Jew-hatred is so entrenched in Palestinian society because it comes from its very leadership. As PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas infamously stated, Hitler had not "killed the Jews because they were Jews," rather "Hitler… fought the Jews because they worked based on usury and money. In other words, they caused ruin...":

Official PA TV tows the line of the PA leadership and takes advantage of every opportunity to spread hate about Jews. A PA TV host recently explained that "the sadism of the invaders [Jews] is embodied… this sadism was not coincidental, but is the result of a criminal, Zionist, racist ideology, which the Zionist movement has fed the Jews' souls." The PA TV "Israeli affairs expert" Alyan Al-Hindi concurred that the "Israeli culture of murder and destruction is built on… the European culture, which is based on murder, destruction, and racism [and] on the Torah."

Another guest on PA TV likewise demonized Jews, claiming that the Torah/Bible is the reason the Jew "enjoys this killing and does not feel pangs of conscience. Why? Because for him, within him, in his experience, in his consciousness, in this core of consciousness, he must kill and he is rewarded for this killing."
