Prominent PLO spokeswoman Hanan
Ashrawi is demanding that the international community declare Israel an
“Apartheid State.” Her demand was included in a statement she published
in Ramallah this week, accusing Israel of incitement against Arabs and
of violating international laws. How come she never mentions the
incitement of Palestinians against Israelis in the Palestinian
government-issued textbooks, or in the schools and summer camps named
after terrorists, or in the government-controlled TV stations which just
last week again glorified terrorists with video celebrations of the
tenth anniversary of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of
Palestine [a group that over the years has killed dozens of Israelis,
including many children]?
How come Ashrawi never mentions that in Saudi Arabia there is not
only gender apartheid — in which women have virtually no rights and are
kept as virtual prisoners, unable to travel without the permission of a
male guardian or relative, even if he is a child or developmentally
disabled or mentally handicapped — but also that there are separate
roads marked for Muslims to drive on and for non-Muslims to drive on?
One is not even allowed to bring a Bible into the country. How come
those acts do not register as “Apartheid”?Click here to continue
