The NY Times picks up on Hamas’ anti-Semitic incitement in mosques and media
Such incitement against Israel and Jews was supposed to be banned under the 1993 Oslo accords and the 2003 “road map” peace plan. While the Palestinian Authority under Fatah has made significant, if imperfect efforts to end incitement, Hamas, no party to those agreements, feels no such restraint.
Since Hamas took over Gaza last June, routing Fatah, Hamas sermons and media reports preaching violence and hatred have become more pervasive, extreme and sophisticated, on the model of Hezbollah and its television station Al Manar, in Lebanon.
A nice farewell from Steve Erlanger, who recently left Israel. Ethan Bronner replaces Erlanger as the Gray Lady’s bureau chief.
