Palestinian diplomat tells students at UN that throwing stones is fantastic (audio)

From YNet:

A Palestinian diplomat speaking to students at the United Nations headquarters in New York told them the Palestinians were proud to be throwing stones at Israeli forces and will continue teaching their children to do so.

In a recording obtained by Ynet, Abdallah Abushawesh, who serves as a senior adviser to the UN's Development Group and as a member of the Palestinian UN mission, is heard saying in broken English, "We are very clever and very expert at throwing the stones. We are very proud to do that. We will not stop to learn our kids (to do that)."

To the sound of sniggering from his listeners, Abushawesh went on to say that every Palestinian caught throwing stones by Israel gets sent to jail. "We are very proud that we are stone throwers. I'm one of them. Now I became a little bit older, but I stay resistant in the name of my kids," he continued.

The Palestinian diplomat later told the students about his own past as a stone-thrower during the first intifada. "I was in high school. I never missed an opportunity to throw stones. This is our life. We develop our resistance every day. We're proud of it," he said.

Abushawesh was speaking to a group of international relations students from McGill University who were at the UN for a tour and a series of meetings as part of their program.  

14 Israelis have been killed, and countless injured,  by Palestinian stone throwers, including:

Yehuda Shoham, a 5-month-old baby, was killed when a rock hurled by stone-throwing Palestinians crashed through the window of the car he was riding in, crushing his skull (2001)
Asher (25) and Yonatan Palmer (1) were killed when the car Asher was driving was attacked by stone-throwing Palestinians, causing it to crash killing him along with his infant son.(2011)
Tthe Biton's family car was attacked, near neighboring village of Kif el-Hares, with stones which caused it to get out of control and collide with a truck. Adele Biton was critically injured along with her mother and 3 sisters who were moderately injured, and died two years later.(2013)

The news isn't that Palestinians encourage stone throwing. That has been obvious for years.

The news is that a Palestinian diplomat, at the UN, is proudly telling college students that he supports teaching Palestinian children to use deadly force against Jews - and it isn't making world headlines.

The news media, by treating Palestinian bloodlust as something that is expected and not newsworthy, is complicit in encouraging the continued murders of Israelis. 

And what the hell is wrong with the McGill students who laughed when this animal bragged about using deadly force against Jews? That should be front page news in Canadian newspapers as well.
