BARAK COMPARES PALESTINIANS TO CROCODILES

 

IT's hardly the first time. Former Prime Minister Shamir called the Palestinians "grasshoppers", suggesting they were like a plague. A former Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army, Raful Eitan, likened the Palestinians to "drugged cockroaches in a bottle", suggesting extermination. Just a few weeks ago a former Chief Rabbi of Israel, now spiritual head of the party that initially made up a significant part of Ehud Barak's government, called the Palestinians "snakes" and in a veiled genocidal suggestion insisted that "God himself was sorry he created them"!

BarakNow Barak (right) himself refers to the Palestinians he has penned up on autonomous West Bank reservations and in a large Gaza prison as "crocodiles", deceitfully suggesting just about the opposite of what is the actual truth when he told Israeli reporters yesterday, "the more you give them to eat, the more they want." [*]

Just imagine if a Palestinian or Arab leader had said any one of these things about Jews or Israelis. The double standard is choking with condemnation.

* Website comment: Reminds us of the passage in Chapter 21: of David Irving's Churchill�s War, vol. ii.

"[President] Roosevelt's staff were aghast. 'These English,' his secretary assessed in an unkind private note, 'are too aggressive except on the battlefront. As assertive as the Jews, always asking for a little more and then still more after that.'"
