One of them was the 1966 International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
Article 20 of that covenant says:
1. Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law.
2. Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law.
Not only does Abbas' government, media and political party regularly violate this, but Mahmoud Abbas regularly violates it himself.
Abbas said in October that Jews must be prevented from visiting the Temple Mount "by all means," meaning including violence.
He called Jews who waned to visit their holiest site a "herd of cattle."
And of course in September Abbas said "They have no right to desecrate them with their filthy feet. We won’t allow them to do so and we will do whatever we can to defend Jerusalem."
This is incitement for violence against Jews and Israelis. This is propaganda for war.
And this is all an explicit violation of a treaty that Mahmoud Abbas signed himself.
This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For over 11 years and over 22,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
