Abbas advisor: Murder of Palestinian youth is "uglier than the crimes of the Nazis"
“The crime of the murder of the youth Muhammad Abu Khdeir by settlers is uglier than the crimes of the Nazis in Europe during World War II. The world must not be satisfied with condemning the crime, but must act to punish its perpetrators. The deterrent and just punishment is not merely jail or imprisonment, but execution. Peace and the occupation cannot coexist; either a peace that will ensure truth and justice, or occupation, killing and blood.”
Note: On June 12, 2014, Israeli teens Eyal Yifrach, Gilad Shaar and Naftali Frenkel were kidnapped while hitchhiking in the West Bank. The boys' bodies were found by Israeli security forces near Hebron on June 30, 2014. They appeared to have been shot to death soon after the abduction. Two days later, Palestinian teen Muhammad Abu Khdeir was kidnapped and murdered in Jerusalem in a revenge attack by Israeli extremists. Following this murder, Palestinians took to the streets of eastern Jerusalem in violent and continuous protests. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli ministers immediately condemned the revenge killing in the strongest terms. Israeli police arrested six Israeli suspects on July 6th; under interrogation, three of the suspects confessed to murdering Khdeir.
