PA minister: Zionist myths about the Holocaust brought Jews to Palestine

We reported yesterday that Mahmoud Abbas sponsored a supposedly "scientific" conference aimed at coming up with ways to combat the facts of Jewish history by promoting academic papers that supposedly refute it.

The conference at Open Al Quds University concluded today, featuring a speech by PA's minister  of Higher Education and Scientific Research Mahmoud Abu Mowais, where he said "we need the papers of this conference and a committee emanating from this conference to help us achieve the strategy of higher education and scientific research and the practical steps taken by the ministry in this field. Universities have a key role in analyzing and refuting the [Israeli] narrative, and we focused on three religious axes and legends made them claim that Palestine is their land. "

"The Zionist narrative of the Holocaust brought them thousands of immigrants, while the current criminal holocaust of the Israelis against the Palestinians must be confronted," he said.

Besides the antisemitism of comparing the Palestinian issue with the Holocaust, note that he didn't say that the Holocaust itself brought Jews to Palestine - it was the "Zionist narrative of the Holocaust." 

Somehow the Zionists convinced the Jews in Europe that their relatives were slaughtered. 

Mowais added that "all the decisions and curricula of the occupation are focused on the fact that the Jew is the zenith of civilization, that the Arabs are a primitive people, and that the Palestinian does not exist on Earth. We have developed a plan of action to combat these allegations by relying on universities as centers of scientific and intellectual production based on learning, and focusing on archaeological research to refute the narrative. And to encourage students to communicate our story to the world, and to bring students from European countries to Palestinian universities to see the situation as it is."

These are the people who claim tat Israel plants fake artifacts all over the land to pretend that there was Jewish history there and that there is no evidence of Jewish Temples in Jerusalem. They are the ones who want to create university courses to teach Europeans their version of history. 

Chances are, this strategy will work. What student will question what a professor tells them, especially when they passionately explain that all of Jewish history is a lie made up by the hated Zionists?
