- These are
people behaving in a way that does not deserve being rewarded with
anything, let alone a state. They far more resemble all tyrannical
thugs throughout history who spend their lives telling other people
how to live, and using violence, or threats of violence, to coerce
anyone who does not agree. Sadly, we already have too much of that
kind of muscling in our Arab and Muslim world, as Egypt's
forward-looking President, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, as well as many
others, regularly point out.
- We have now
reached the same stage as Germany's Nazis -- the same thing,
ironically, we falsely accuse the Jews of being -- where the
appearance of a Jew on a Palestinian television show is considered
as an act of "treason" and a "crime." In
reality, it is we who are the New Nazis.

Palestinian "anti-normalization" activists

A Palestinian TV talk show host is facing strong condemnations and
threats for hosting an Israeli Jewish singer who is extremely popular
among Palestinian youths.
The condemnations expose the ugly face of the anti-Israel Boycott,
Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS), whose followers are vehemently
opposed to any form of "normalization" between Palestinians and
Israelis.
The BDS activists are demanding that those who brought the singer,
Zvi Yehezkel, to the TV show in Ramallah be punished. The activists do
not even seem to care that the singer supports peace between Israel and
the Palestinians.
They are more bothered by the fact that a Palestinian TV station in
Ramallah dared to invite a Jew to an interview. The BDS activists are
also not ashamed to expose their anti-Semitism by expressing their
outrage over the fact that Yehezkel is an observant Jew wearing a
skullcap.
