| Libels |
Since the Palestinian Authority was established it has systematically indoctrinated young and old to hate Israelis and Jews. Using media, education, and cultural structures that it controls, the PA has actively promoted religious hatred, demonization, conspiracy libels, etc. These are packaged to present Israelis and Jews as endangering Palestinians, Arabs, and all humanity. This ongoing campaign has so successfully instilled hatred that fighting, murder and even suicide terror against Israelis and Jews are seen by the majority of Palestinians as justified self-defense and as Allah’s will.
Throughout history bogus conspiracy accusations have been used to incite hatred, violence, and mass murder. The myriad conspiracy libels concerning Israel, Israelis and Jews are an integral part of the Palestinian Authority’s ongoing hate promotion. PA libels claim that Israel conspires to infect Palestinians with AIDS, spread drug addiction, conspired and successfully murdered Arafat, and more. The PA’s goal has been to inculcate hatred to the degree that fighting and murdering Jews and Israelis will be glorified as heroic self-defense. |

| Holocaust libels and misappropriation |
Holocaust desecration, denial, and abuse are all components of Palestinian Authority ideology. A PA TV children’s program taught that Israel burned Palestinians in ovens. [PA TV (Fatah), March 25, 2004] At an exhibit in Gaza, children put dolls in a model oven adorned with a Star of David and a swastika. A senior Palestinian academic taught adults on PA TV: “There was no
Dachau, no Auschwitz; these were disinfecting sites.” [PA TV (Fatah), Nov. 29, 2000] A Hamas TV documentary explained that Jewish leaders planned the Holocaust in order to eliminate Jews who were "disabled and handicapped.” [Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas), April 18, 2008] A crossword puzzle clue in the official PA newspaper identified “Israel’s Center for the Holocaust and the Lies” as “Yad Vashem” – Israel’s Holocaust memorial. [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Feb. 18, 1999] The same official PA daily has published many articles denying the Holocaust, including one that termed the Holocaust a “hen laying golden eggs.”
Schoolbooks produced by the Palestinian Ministry of Education teach the history of World War 2 in great detail but omit the history of the Holocaust, which is totally ignored. One history book does teach that Nazism was a racist ideology and that Nazi war criminals were tried, but it does not mention that Jews were the target of the racism, nor the crimes for which the Nazis were on trial. Palestinian education erases the actual Holocaust from history and usurps the word “Holocaust” for its own wide range of malicious libels.
This video depicts a PA TV children’s play teaching that Israel burned Palestinians in ovens.
"They [Israel] are the ones who did the Holocaust, their knife cuts to the length and the width of our flesh...
They opened ovens for us, to bake human beings.
They destroyed the villages and burnt the cities.
And when an oven stops burning, they light a hundred [more] ovens.
Their hands are covered with the blood of our children."
[PA TV March 25, 2004]
The following are more examples of Palestinian Authority Holocaust desecration, denial, and abuse. (Note: This material also appears under "Holocaust Denial and Distortion"):

While they accuse the Nazis or others so that the Jews would seem persecuted, and try to benefit from international sympathy... The Israeli Holocaust - the whole thing was a joke, and part of the perfect show that Ben Gurion put on, focusing on [bringing] strong and energetic youth [to Israel], while the rest - the disabled, the handicapped, and people with special needs - they were sent [to die]."

“Coming back to the suffering and tribulations caused by the Nazis, we would read hair-raising things about the entanglement of the Zionist leaders in the “sacrifice” of many Jews, in order to kill two birds with one stone: on the one hand to be rid of those who disagreed with them [i.e., Jews opposed to Zionism] and, on the other, to push all the Jews to immigrate to Palestine, since Europe had become an unbearable Hell … I would like to say that, based on the above, the Jewish - or more accurately Zionist - willingness to sacrifice Jews for the above-mentioned cause is a known historical tradition.” |

Libel: Holocaust a fable utilized to win empathy
|

Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, July 2, 1998

"The winds blew in their favor, when the persecution against them by the Nazi Hitler started, and when what Hitler did to them was stronger than their programs and the international Jewish media that were under their control, they exploited it in the best possible way, and the show began. They began to distribute horrific pictures of mass shooting being committed against them and to fabricate the shocking story about gas ovens, [in] which, according to their claims, Hitler would burn them [the Jews]. Newspaper columns began to fill with pictures of Jews being cut down by Hitler's machine guns, and of Jews being led to the gas ovens. In these pictures they concentrated on women, children and the elderly. And they took advantage of this in order to arouse empathy towards them, while they demanded monetary compensation, grants and contributions from all over the world. The truth is that the persecution of the Jews is a false fable that the Jews called the disaster of the "Holocaust."
...
And although it is possible that Hitler's attack against the Jews hurt them slightly, it also clearly served them to the point where even today they reap its benefits. This was the front door to winning American and European support and realizing their dream and their plans. " |

The Other Side: the Secret Relationship Between Nazism and Zionism, by Mahmoud Abbas, Feb. 15, 1984

PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s thesis, "The Other Side: The Secret Relations between Nazism and the Leadership of the Zionist Movement" (Translation by Wiesenthal Center):
"A partnership was established between Hitler's Nazis and the leadership of the Zionist movement... [the Zionists] gave permission to every racist in the world, led by Hitler and the Nazis, to treat Jews as they wish, so long as it guarantees immigration to Palestine." |

"The Al-Quds Open University branch in northern Gaza screened the documentary film Two Holocausts with director Dr. Suwailam Al-Abbasi and other film participants attending. Also attending was the University Vice President for Gaza Affairs, Dr. Jihad al-Batsh... who declared that the film is an attempt to appeal to the viewer's conscience by presenting the main cases of slaughter perpetrated by the occupation's gangs against the Palestinian people. Al-Batsh added that the film shows that Israel and the Zionist movement are doing to the Palestinian people what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, in the same way, but in a more despicable manner."

"Members of the Jewish religion must awaken from the coma of historical distortion, which was fabricated by the Zionist movement and world capitalists, the very same [capitalists] who wheel and deal in the Nazi and Fascist slaughter of Jews during WWII. Since what they (i.e., the Jews) are doing in Palestine against the Palestinian Arab people is more dangerous and criminal than what Hitler's Holocaust brought on the Jews and the nations of the world of the 1940s."

"It looks like the Palestinian National Authority is simultaneously facing war on a number of fronts...
Among the volatile topics is the insane settlement enterprise that the Netanyahu government continues, using racist settlers, who behave more like wounded and mad wolves aroused by the smell of blood, and whose actions against our people are more loathsome than any Zionist story about the Nazi Holocaust."

PA daily calls Israeli defense unit "the Nazi Zionist Hagana"
|

Source:
Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 15, 2012

Op-ed published in the official PA daily published on May 15, the anniversary of the founding of the modern state of Israel:
"The [Palestinian] fathers will die and the sons will forget their right to this land (i.e., within state of Israel) - that is the theory that the occupation (i.e., Israel) upheld and spoke about for decades, and which, with time, it gambled with as a framework for its attempts to plant foreign settlers on Palestinian land, and to cause its historical and national identity to disappear. It spoke about this until it established its fascist state upon the ruins of the Palestinian people, which has suffered the greatest and ugliest ethnic cleansing known to modern history... May 15 [1948] is Nakba Day, the day of emigration, the day of expulsion and uprooting of the Palestinian people from its soil, from its homeland, from its towns and its villages, which were destroyed by the Nazi Zionist Hagana and Stern units (i.e., Jewish pre-state armed defense units), which expelled the inhabitants with armed force and wanton killing. They carried out dozens of massacres against the inhabitants, the owners of the land, which they burned and seized using all means. What happened - happened, and an entire nation emigrated, against the background of world silence and confusion of the Arab armies at the time, who withdrew before the greatest theft in history, and before the most criminal act that humanity has ever seen..."

"District Governor of Jerusalem, Adnan Husseini, called upon the international community yesterday to do what it must in view of the daily violations of human rights… During his meeting yesterday morning at his office with the Finnish representative to the PA, Martti Eirola, …[Husseini] said that our sons, sitting behind the occupation's bars, are exposed to a range of human rights violations that closely resemble a war of annihilation, like that which was waged against the Jews during the Nazi period."

Fatah official in PA TV news broadcast: Israel is like Hitler

Palestinian TV (Fatah), Mar. 17, 2012

Report about a Palestinian demonstrator attacked by an Israeli army dog. Interview with Member of Fatah Central Committee Abbas Zaki, about the incident.
PA TV reporter: "In these images, Israeli Nazism and the criminal mentality are eternalized. The methods are numerous, but the aggression is the same. Police dogs attack the demonstrators and bite their exposed parts…"
Member of Fatah Central Committee, Abbas Zaki: "When this enemy uses dogs and live bullets and this planned military violence, it emphasizes its violent, racist nature and character, which is unacceptable, and which has multiplied and spilled over beyond all limits. In my opinion they imitate – and they are determined to imitate – the period of Hitler. Because, in the Nazi war, Hitler was determined to train dogs… so that they would enter the war. These modern weapons and modern technology have reached their hands, harmful wild boars, as well as dogs that bite the bodies of the [Palestinian] fighters." ...
Host: "Mr. Zaki, when the Israeli soldiers use dogs as a means of suppressing these demonstrations, why, in your opinion, do they reach such a level of barbarism and of torture of civilians?"
Zaki: "They are – first of all, when they exaggerate with their crimes, they're afraid. Their man is already not able to handle it. Therefore, I believe that the dog, the boar, and the soldier have now joined forces [lit: they are in one pit] against Palestinian humanity."
