ELDER OF ZIYON

From USA Today:

The Palestine Liberation Organization's ambassador to the United States said Tuesday that any future Palestinian state it seeks with help from the United Nations and the United States should be free of Jews.


"After the experience of the last 44 years of military occupation and all the conflict and friction, I think it would be in the best interest of the two people to be separated," Maen Areikat, the PLO ambassador, said during a meeting with reporters sponsored by The Christian Science Monitor. He was responding to a question about the rights of minorities in a Palestine of the future.


Such a state would be the first to officially prohibit Jews or any other faith since Nazi Germany, which sought a country that was judenrein, or cleansed of Jews, said Elliott Abrams, a former U.S. National Security Council official.

Was he misquoted? Could he have really said "Israelis" or "Zionists"?


Nope. Areikat was interviewed in Tablet last year and said this explicitly:

So, you think it would be necessary to first transfer and remove every Jew—


Absolutely. No, I’m not saying to transfer every Jew, I’m sayingtransfer Jews who, after an agreement with Israel, fall under the jurisdiction of a Palestinian state.


Any Jew who is inside the borders of Palestine will have to leave?


Absolutely. I think this is a very necessary step, before we can allow the two states to somehow develop their separate national identities, and then maybe open up the doors for all kinds of cultural, social, political, economic exchanges, that freedom of movement of both citizens of Israelis and Palestinians from one area to another. You know you have to think of the day after.

About two thirds of the nations of the world represented in the United Nations supports the establishment of a state that is, by definition, anti-semitic.


 It would not just an "apartheid" state - it would be a state whose very basiswould be the ethnic cleansing of every single Jewish man, woman and child.


 We should be hearing the outraged condemnations from human rights groups any minute now. Of course.
