Hamas leader engages in classic antisemitic stereotypes

In a pre-recorded message shown at the 22nd "Al Aqsa Festival" in Al Karak, Jordan last night, Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal gave a speech that included classic antisemitic conspiracy theories updated to make the Arab world the target rather than the world at large.

Meshaal said "the occupation wants to infiltrate us as an Arab nation, dominate us, and target our security, wealth and independence."

It is the same message given by German, Russian and other antisemites since the 19th century.

He added the "the battle of Al-Aqsa is a battle of honor, religion, Arabism and destiny," putting a religious and patriotic spin on murdering Jews.

It isn't as if this message is unusual - it is standard rhetoric for inciting violence against Jews that we have heard for centuries. But since he says "the occupation" and not "Jews," Hamas can claim - and modern antisemites can pretend - that it is merely "anti-Zionist."
