Coronavirus: More Palestinian Libels Against Israel
(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - A new Palestinian campaign of incitement against Israel claims that Israel - or, to be more accurate, Jews - are deliberately spreading coronavirus among Palestinians. One might have hoped that the Israeli-Palestinian cooperation against the coronavirus would have had a moderating effect on the Palestinians, especially their leaders, who have long been engaged in vitriolic anti-Israel rhetoric. Sadly, even the joint war on the pandemic has not changed the hearts and minds of most Palestinian leaders. The lies spread about Israel will undoubtedly pave the way for more violent attacks against Jews. The next time a Palestinian goes out to kill a Jew, he or she will say: "I had to do that in order to prevent these evil Jews from spreading coronavirus among my people. My own leaders told me that Jews are spreading the virus."
