Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas received an invitation from his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to participate in the celebration of the seventieth anniversary of Russia's victory over the Nazis next month, according to the Ambassador of Palestine to Russia, Faid Mustafa.Abbas' political forebears were enthusiastic supporters of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust.
Mustafa said the official Voice of Palestine radio that "President Abbas received an invitation from Putin to participate in the celebration of the seventieth anniversary of the victory over the Nazis next month," saying that it reflects the depth of Russian-Palestinian relationship.
He went on to say that "about 30 leaders from countries around the world will take part in this event, and the Palestinian President will have the opportunity to present the case of the Palestinian people before the international crowd, and emphasize that the great victory over Nazism wass not enough to found a Palestinian state under colonialism."
Russia and a number of former Soviet republics, celebrate the victory on the ninth of May each year, the anniversary of the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany at the end of World War II.
Abbas has publicly praised the infamous Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin Husayni, who collaborated with the Nazis to exterminate all Jews in Europe - and the Arab world.
We must also recall the outstanding [early] leadership of the Palestinian people, the Grand Mufti of Palestine-Haj Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, who sponsored the struggle from the beginning, and sponsored the struggle and displacement for the cause and died away from his home.Abbas has also referred to Husayni as a "martyr."
Even today, Arab media justifies Husaynis' role in the Holocaust.
This invitation shows the breathtaking cynicism and historical inversion on the parts of both Putin and Abbas.
