Jerusalem, December 16, 1997
THE AGREEMENT
Under the terms of the Oslo Accords and the Hebron Protocol, the Palestinian Authority (PA) is obligated to refrain from incitement against Israel and to take measures to prevent others from engaging in it...
In his exchange of letters with Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin on September 9, 1993, Chairman Yasser Arafat wrote, "the PLO renounces the use of terrorism and other acts of violence and will assume responsibility over all PLO elements and personnel in order to assure their compliance, prevent violations and discipline violators."
The Interim Agreement (Oslo 2) of September 28, 1995 (Article XXII) states that Israel and the PA "shall seek to foster mutual understanding and tolerance and shall accordingly abstain from incitement, including hostile propaganda, against each other and, without derogating from the principle of freedom of expression, shall take legal measures to prevent such incitement by any organizations, groups or individuals within their jurisdiction."
In the Note for the Record which accompanied the Hebron Protocol of January 15, 1997, the Palestinians reaffirmed their commitment regarding, "Preventing incitement and hostile propaganda, as specified in Article XXII of the Interim Agreement."
THE VIOLATIONS
Antisemitism is an integral part of the rhetoric of Palestinian Authority (PA) officials, and they encourage its use in the Palestinian media in violation of the accords. Six recurrent themes are discernible:
1) Classic anti-Semitic stereotypes
2) Comparisons of Israel with Nazis and Fascists
3) Denial of the Holocaust
4) Libelous Accusations
5) Delegitimizing Israel and the Jewish people
6) Equating Zionism with racism
Repeated reference is made by Palestinians to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and Palestinian Authority newspapers publish stories about Jewish "plots" and Jewish "fangs". Jews are often
depicted as power-hungry and lusting after money, with occasional references to Shakespeare's Shylock and the Merchant of Venice as examples of J.. greed.
In the tradition of the medieval blood libel, Palestinian officials
have accused Israel of ....
3. Holocaust Denial
"... the forged claims of the Zionists regarding alleged acts of slaughter perpetrated against the Jews during the same period."
--- from an article in the official PA newspaper Al-Hayat
Al-Jadeedah, September 3, 1997
"Moderator: It is well-known that every year the Jews (Palestinian moderator on television says) exaggerate what the Nazis did to them. They claim there were 6 million killed, but precise scientific research demonstrates that there were no more than 400,000. Has the complex which the Jews have as a result of the Nazis' actions created within them psychological burdens which they are now releasing against the Palestinians?
Palestinian author Hassan Al-Agha: The truth is I do not think so. Psychological baggage after 40 or 50 years I am skeptical But I do think that we are talking about an investment. They have profited (Palestinian author Hassan Al-Agha) materially, spiritually, politically and economically from the talk about the Nazi killings. This investment is favorable (Palestinian author Hassan Al-Agha) to them and they view it as a profitable activity so they inflate the number of victims all the time. In another ten years, I do not know what number they will reach, Last year, for the first time, a statistic appeared ...and as you know, when it comes to economics and investments, the J.. (Palestinian author Hassan Al-Agha:) have been very experienced ever since the days of the Merchant of Venice."
--- from a cultural affairs program broadcast on the official PA
television station on August 25, 1997.
"At the end of our period of imprisonment the time passed very slowly. We felt as if we were being burned. Imagine...the Jews are saying: "The Nazis burned us in gas chambers." That is a (official PA television says) false tale, but at times I felt that we were those who were being burned up within the walls..."
