Abbas the Holocaust Denier, Never Deserved an Award

The Mayor of Paris has revoked a prestigious award given to PA head Mahmoud Abbas over comments he made last week in which he claimed that Jews were murdered in the Holocaust because of their role as money lenders. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten argues that Abbas, a well-known Holocaust denier and terrorist, should have never received the award in the first place. Josh adds that what is worse is that Israel allows this Jew-hater to remain in control of the PA in Judea and Samaria, as he denies the Nazi genocide against the Jews, while at the same time continues to pay terrorist’s salaries for murdering Israelis.

Why Were Abbas’ Holocaust Comments Shocking?

This past week, while in Germany nonetheless, PA head Mahmoud Abbas accused Israel of carrying out 50 Holocausts against the “Palestinians.” His comments were condemned by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz along with leaders from Israel and around the world. While certainly despicable, why was anybody shocked? Abbas is a notorious Holocaust denier whose 1982 doctoral dissertation was called “The Other Side: The Secret Relationship Between Nazism and Zionism,” in which Abbas minimized the Nazi plan to liquidate the Jewish people and accused the Zionists of colluding with the Nazis. Abbas’ comments were certainly outrageous, but no reason for surprise. This story and all the latest news from Israel on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

PA Daily Calls for Murder During International Holocaust Gathering

As over 40 world leaders are set to arrive in Jerusalem this week to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, a PA columnist has advocated for murder in order to disrupt the ceremonies. On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Maurice Hirsch Head of Legal Strategies for Palestinian Media Watch discusses how the PA in recent weeks has stepped up it’s anti-Israel incitement, and along with this call for murder, has launched blood libel campaigns accusing Jews of desecrating the Temple Mount – in order to rile up the masses towards terror and violence.
