ADL slams racist remarks by Likud backbencher Hazan

Maariv international

The Anti-Defamation League has condemned the " inappropriate and prejudicial remarks" made by Likud MK Yehiel Hazan at the Knesset earlier this week. MK Hazan repeated likened the Palestinians to "worms" and stated that the Palestinians are a nation of "murderers" and "terrorists."

likened Palestinians to "worms"

Clearly the ADL is right here. I have never seen a worm carrying a rifle. The difference is clear.

the Palestinians are a nation of "murderers" and "terrorists."

This, OTOH, seems to be accurate.

The ADL attacks all forms of racism and bigotry. It always has.

The French are gonna be pretty pissed that the arabs are infringing their trademark nickname.

But on a serious note it is stupid to let name calling cloud the issues involved. Call terrorists worms but do not call an entire group of people worms.

Which is one reason the Temple hasn't been rebuilt (the Torah worldview and that of the ADL are mutually exclusive).

And btw, the ADL does not attack bigotry aimed at pro-Israel Fundamentalist Protestants but engages in it. It has long been a totally biased leftwing political organization.
