US Congressmen demand Abbas fire former advisor, based on PMW documentation
"We were troubled to learn (from PMW) that a senior Palestinian Authority official, Sultan Abu Al-Einein, who previously served as your advisor holding the rank of minister, had recently expressed his open support for the murderer who killed Evyatar Borovsky, an Israeli who was stabbed to death by Palestinian terrorist Salam Al-Zaghal while he was waiting for a ride... President Abbas, allowing this type of incitement and hatemongering to take place within your ranks is intolerable if you are truly dedicated to non-violence. We ask that you publically and officially denounce and condemn Mr. Al-Einein’s remarks at once and remove him from his position in your government."

Israel Ambassador Prosor writes letter to UN about map erasing Israel, exposed by PMW
"[PMW exposed that] on May 2, 2013, officials from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) attended an event in southern Lebanon. At the event, Ann Dismorr, Director of UNRWA Affairs in Lebanon, posed for photos with a map that erased the State of Israel and identified the geographic area as 'Palestine.'"

Israel Ambassador Prosor cites PMW material in speech to the UN
"It doesn't take an urban planner to realize that the Palestinians are missing the blueprints to build a peaceful neighborhood. From cradles to kindergarten classrooms, from the fields of summer camps to the fields of football stadiums, messages of intolerance fill Palestinian society... Flip through the channels of Palestinian Authority television and you might find a children's program featuring a young girl reciting a poem that called Jews (and I quote) 'Allah's enemies, the sons of pigs' who 'rap[e] women in city squares (exposed by PMW).' Apparently, this is what passes for 'educational television' under the Palestinian Authority."

Members of US Congress write to Abbas to condemn PA TV hate speech PMW had exposed
“We are writing to express our grave dismay and deep concern over the recent broadcast of a children’s program on Palestinian Television which included rabid incitement against the State of Israel and the Jewish people. The children's show, The Best Home, included a scene in which a young girl recited a poem filled with messages of hate and other libels demonizing Jews (exposed by PMW).”

Norway continues investigating its aid to the PA, based on PMW documentation
There have been greatly surprising developments in Norway in the past weeks. Conservative parliamentarian Peter Gitmark has said on television that his country is indirectly funding Palestinian terrorists. The country’s three largest opposition parties – the Conservatives, the Progress Party and the Christian Democrats – have asked for an investigation into Norwegian financing of the Palestinian Authority by the Parliamentary Committee on Scrutiny and Constitutional Affairs... All of this was triggered by information provided by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW). It showed that the PA uses money from its budget to pay salaries to all Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails for security offenses. The recipients include those serving multiple life sentences for murder."

PMW in the Media

Jewish Tribune - June 11, 2013
"A Paris museum has drawn outrage from France’s Jewish community over a display depicting photos of Palestinian suicide bombers as martyrs.... Itamar Marcus, director of Palestinian Media Watch, explained that the 'greatest motivation for terror is glorifying the terrorists, adopting their ideologies, and honouring them as freedom fighters. It is this success of terror that breeds more terrorists. The blood of many civilians…will be on the hands of the Jeu De Paume Museum and those who embrace terror around the world, who are convincing future suicide bombers that their murderous deaths will have purpose.'"

Commentary Magazine.com - June 3, 2013
"How can Israel possibly make peace with people who consider its very existence 'illegal and null and void?' Nor has anything much changed in 49 years, as anyone who follows Palestinian Media Watch would know. Just last month, for instance, another senior PA official widely considered a “moderate” in the West, Jibril Rajoub, told a television interviewer, 'We as yet don’t have a nuke, but I swear that if we had a nuke, we’d have used it [against Israel] this very morning.' PA officials and the official PA media still consistently deny the Jews’ historical connection to the land of Israel, teach their people that the ultimate goal is a world without Israel, and glorify those who murder Jews." (June 3, 2013)

International Business Times - May 17, 2013
"On Monday, the director of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees was photographed with a map titled 'Arab Palestine.' [...] But in a statement released on Tuesday, the UNRWA rejected what they called 'baseless allegations of erasing Israel from the map.' Palestinian Media Watch, which originally reported on the picture... [said] in a statement on Friday, “UNRWA spokesperson [Christopher] Gunness' justification that the map ‘depict[s] a pre-1948 map’ is baseless, as the map includes the PLO-PA [Palestinian Liberation Organization -- Palestinian Authority] flag and not a British flag.”

The Blaze - May 14, 2013
"The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) launched a German-funded project in southern Lebanon where the area's Director of UNRWA Affairs, Ann Dismorr, posed with a map devoid of any trace of the State of Israel, instead presenting it as a map of 'Palestine.' Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) captured the UN representatives' egregious actions and noted that above the map is the Palestinian flag and the inscription: 'Arab Palestine.' The text at the bottom of the map also reads just 'Palestine.'"

The Blaze - May 13, 2013
"Jibril Rajoub, a senior Palestinian Authority official who is frequently characterized as a 'moderate' in both the Western and Israeli media, said on Lebanese television that if the Palestinians had a nuclear weapon they would have nuked Israel 'this morning.' Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) discovered and translated to English the interview Rajoub gave to Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen TV on April 30. Rajoub also posted the video clip to his own Facebook page, according to PMW."
