Abbas, Biden Play "Blame the Victim"
Last week, Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas used the United Nations podium to demand statehood for “Palestine.” Abbas, and the Arabs he represents, claim they want to live side by side in peace with Israel.
But the facts tell a far different tale. Abbas continues to blame Israel for defending itself against enemies on all sides, not the least of which is the PA’s true ruler—the Iran-funded terror machine known as Hamas.
The Jewish fall festivals, including the Jewish New Year observance, are underway. Jewish tradition states that our actions during these high holidays will set the course for our entire year. Let us be counted among the first who support and defend Israel in this new Jewish year of 5783! Demand the U.S. VETO Palestinian Statehood!
Please sign our petition and/or fax Congress today!
Following Israel’s 1948 declaration of statehood, Arab leaders from the region made the decision to live in “a permanent state of conflict with the Jewish state as a step toward its eventual elimination,” according to Middle East expert Ben Cohen.
The Gaza Strip would be used to terrorize Israelis for decades, including the 1967 “Six-Day War” and the 2021 “Three-Day War,” in both of which God delivered the heavily outmanned Israeli forces from the Arabs determined to obliterate them.
The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) charter calls for “armed struggle” to “liberate Palestine.” It proclaims the “national duty to repulse the Zionist, imperialist invasion.”
Those phrases are marching orders for much of Palestinian society—which has become a ghoulish death cult that glorifies suicide bombing and revels in violence against Israel. Here are just a few examples of that animus exposed by the Israeli watchdog group, Palestinian Media Watch:
-
A music video on Palestinian TV celebrates suicide bombers, telling Palestinians “Life is insignificant ... God, grant us Martyrdom.”
-
A Mother’s Day message on official PA TV announces that “the land won’t be liberated until it is saturated with the blood of its sons.”
-
A mother whose son died in a clash with Israeli soldiers told Abbas she was “prepared to sacrifice even more. I’m prepared to give more Martyrs for the homeland.” Abbas affirmed her, saying, “He is our son, all of ours. Our children—all are for the sake of Allah.”
Worse yet, Abbas PAYS TERRORISTS to attack Israelis! Under Abbas’ watch, the PA actively encourages vicious and blood-soaked terror attacks on Israeli civilians with so-called “pay-for-slay” dollars. Joe Biden’s own State Department published a report in May disclosing that in 2019, the Palestinians paid out 341 million dollars to terrorists and their families.
And just last year, PA forces engaged in active WARFARE against the Jewish nation.
Yet, Abbas stood before the U.N. and blamed Israel for defending themselves against the Arab nations’ attacks. Then, Abbas had the unmitigated gall to demand that Israel be forced to carve out a so-called “Palestinian state” right in the middle of the Jewish heartland … and in the areas they have used for decades in their continuous aggression designed to eliminate Israel.
Abbas’ chutzpah is astounding. But what is even more astounding is Joe Biden’s determination to give Abbas exactly what he wants!
The U.S. can stop this travesty, simply by using our power on the U.N. Security Council to VETO Palestinian statehood. Biden has repeatedly made clear whose side he is on … and, sadly, it is not Israel’s.
It is now incumbent upon you and I to demand Congress step in and force Joe Biden to VETO Palestinian Statehood. Please, defend Israel by faxing Congress and signing our petition demanding the U.S. VETO Palestinian statehood.
Your generosity enables CIDI to make a pro-Israel difference in the halls of power in Washington, D.C., the Middle East and throughout the world. Please stand with us to bless Israel by giving generously.
