PA: "Hets mot Abbas"

De palestinska ledarna visar ännu en gång vad de går för. Nu anklagar man Israel för hets mot president Abbas efter att Avigdor Liberman sagt att Abbas inte är någon fredspartner.
PA:s utrikesministerium anklagade Liberman för att vara "gangster" och "facist" och påstod att hans uttalande utgjorde "statsterrorism".
Jag håller med en israelisk talesman som kommenterade saken:
In response to these various cries of “incitement,” an Israeli official said that the Palestinians had confused legitimate political criticism with incitement.
“It is clear that the Palestinians fail to understand what incitement is,” he said.
“Incitement is demonizing the other side. It is denying the legitimacy of the other side. Incitement is putting terrorists up on pedestals and calling them heroes.
It is dehumanizing the other side. Incitement is calling to violence. Incitement is encouraging to hate. The PA does all these things. Criticizing this or that aspect of President Abbas’s politics is legitimate political criticism and is not incitement,” the official said.

Palestinians slam Israeli 'incitement' against Abbas, say it hurts peace talks
