The Simon Wiesenthal Center will unveil its list of top 10 “anti-Israel/anti-Semitic slurs” today. The list includes a lot of anti-Semitism but also charges that Israel is genocidal. From the press release:

For the last two years, The Simon Wiesenthal Center, a leading Jewish human rights NGO, has compiled a list of the top ten anti-Israel and anti-Jewish slurs. The list continues to reflect the growing global anti-Semitism and de-legitimization of Israel coming from mainstream voices. … These citings should serve as a wake-up call to those who believe that such rants are the exclusive domain of Neo-Nazis and crackpots.

1.) “I come before you today from the Holy Land, the land of Palestine, the land of divine messages, ascension of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him and the birthplace of Jesus Christ peace be upon him, to speak on behalf of the Palestinian people…”

-Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas at his UN General Assembly address, September 23, 2011.

Speaking to the world, Abbas omitted any reference to the Jewish people’s connection to the Holy Land . No reference to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, nor King David, King Solomon, or Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel.

From what I remember, G-d in Old Testament gave 10 comandments, which are the guidelines for the daily conduct of all the people, including Jewish people.
All of them are very important and should be respected.
The two of them are: “Thou shall not KILL”, Though shall not STEAL”.
It is a pitty that Abbas did not mention this in his UN speech.
But then, I guess, it would be also considered , somehow, an Anti-Semitic.
Hmm, maybe G-d will be also accused of Anti-Semitism, since He meant that ALL people should follow 10 comendments, especially the “chosen nation” ???
They should, sort of, lead by example.
And, oh Lord, what kind of example do they give us all??

At the top will be “Israel is delegitimizing Israel””the settlements etc delegitimize Israel”

Former MK Shulamith Aloni has accused Israel of slow-motion genocide.

“Speaking to the world, Abbas omitted any reference to the Jewish people’s connection to the Holy Land . No reference to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, nor King David, King Solomon, or Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel.”

And why should he reference them?
It is this kind of overwhelming narcissistic pettiness that shows the mentality of the zionist.
This like the zio who counted the number of times Obama had had Jewish activities in the WH and was mad there weren’t more.

Phil did you hear this one?
during the Npr report on the Obama/Maliki coverage they flip over into an Israeli Palestinian jump start. Not listed on their page.

Bryzinski has some powerful things to say
http://www.npr.org/programs/all-things-considered/
“the US can not wait for Israel”

During Jackie Northrums report on the Obama/Maliki meeting Obama said “We’re here to mark the end of this war, to honor the sacrifices of all those who made this day possible and to turn the page, begin a new chapter in the history between our countries,” That is such an arrogant, irresponsible way to respond to the bloody results of the US invasion of Iraq based on a “pack of lies” Thousands of Iraqi people have been killed, injured and millions displaced. So dismissive “turn the page, next chapter” “A dumb war” Can you imagine anyone saying that to Holocaust survivors.
