[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] Palestinian Authority fakes a Golda Meir quote

The Palestinian Authority Ministry of Information has released the first of a series of reports on what they call "Israeli Incitement to Racism against Palestinians." This one concentrates on Israeli media.

The report's sloppiness and brevity shows that it is clearly a slapdash response to the extremely well documented examples of Palestinian incitement that have been in the news. The PA apparently believes - with justification - that if they issue a press release proclaiming lies and point to a report that no one will read, then it will blunt the effects of Israel's actual facts.

After all, who would assume that a government is lying so blatantly?

Even though the report covers over a decade of supposed quotes from Israeli media that they say proves racism and incitement, it gives only a handful of examples. It's biggest quote comes from Haaretz describing Israelis as racist, commenting on a story that they badly misreported to begin with (saying that there were Jews-only bus lines in the West Bank, which is not at all true.)

In other words, their main proof of racism in Israeli media comes from Israeli media condemning supposed racism - which contradicts their entire thesis.

That, however, is nothing compared to this quote from this official PA report:

Golda Meir, the fourth Prime Minister of Israel said: "Every morning I hope I wake up without finding any single Palestinian child alive"... 

This quote is a complete fabrication. It doesn't even exist on other anti-Israel or antisemitic websites - it was made up by the Palestinian Authority.  (They link to an Arabic PA webpage which doesn't even have that quote.)

Their history of lying has not caused them any serious negative consequences so far - indeed, it helped them tremendously - so they've kept it up. But this is a conscious deception on their part, made of whole cloth. They didn't find the quote - it did not exist on the Internet before this report.

...she also said:"I will not forgive Palestinians as they force our soldiers for killing them".

The second quote is a purposeful mangling of a real Golda Meir quote: "When peace comes we will perhaps in time be able to forgive the Arabs for killing our sons, but it will be harder for us to forgive them for having forced us to kill their sons."

This quote is the opposite of racism. It says Jews can forgive Arabs for killing them (when peace comes) but Jews have a natural aversion to killing and it is a terrible (but necessary) thing to be forced to kill to defend your land and family.

If you want to see a people who are enthusiastic about killing their enemies, you don't have to look far.

When the official Palestinian Authority government lies so egregiously in their official reports, how can anyone trust them for anything else?

Indeed, the only real examples of incitement, stereotyping and bigotry in the report are those against Israel. for example:

Israeli incitement isn't limited to school curricula and further deteriorates into brainwashing that continues at different levels for all ages, beginning with kindergartens through primary schools and then high schools through college. When students come out of the circle of influence of the educational institution the role of the media comes, which completes the circle of hatred and incitement in a planned and systematic structure, which has its means and goals, to get at the end a brainwashed Israeli soldier who doesn't hesitate to kill a Palestinian child and doesn't care about a Palestinian woman when she is made to give birth while stranded at an Israeli roadblock without allowing her to proceed in her ambulance to hospital.

The official Palestinian Authority position is that all Israelis are raised from birth to become bloodthirsty killers of Palestinian children.

If that isn't incitement, what is?

I didn't check the veracity of their few other examples of anti-Arab racism in Israeli newspapers over the past decade,  but even if they are true and in context - which is doubtful -  it does not prove Israel is a racist state.

This one report does prove, irrefutably, that the Palestinian Authority itself lies, fabricates facts, and incites against Israelis.

Their conclusion is a picture perfect example of Palestinian projection:

Israeli incitement machine is still going forward due to the lack of Israeli desire to stop it. Besides the lack of an effective international mechanism is leading to the establishing an entire extreme society under the control of the Israeli incitement and this goes on generation after generation.
In the end, this explains the lack of readiness of Israel so far for a lasting peace despite the passage of 25 years since the start of peace negotiations with the Palestinians.

Wow...who does that sound like?
