The U.N. Human Rights Council’s perennial debate focusing on condemning Israel witnessed an unusual intervention Monday – a strong-worded statement in Arabic-accented English slamming not Israel but the Palestinian Authority.
the speaker questioned the legitimacy of Mahmoud Abbas’s P.A., accused it of jailing and torturing its critics, and called it the “greatest enemy of the Palestinian people.”
“If Israel did not exist, you would have no one to blame,” he declared, concluding by accusing the P.A. of using the HRC platform “to mislead the international community, to mislead the Palestinian society to believe that Israel is responsible for the problem you create.”
The speaker was Mosab Hassan Yousef, the disowned son of a founder of the Islamist terror movement Hamas, and a convert to Christianity.
...
My name is Mosab Hassan Yousef. I grew up in Ramallah as a member of Hamas.
I address these words to the Palestinian Authority, which claims to be the ‘sole legitimate representative’ of the Palestinian people.
“I ask: where does your legitimacy come from?
“The Palestinian people did not elect you, and they did not appoint you to represent them. You are self-appointed.
“Your accountability is not to your own people. This is evidenced by your own total violation for their human rights.
“In fact, the Palestinian individual and their human development is the least of your concerns.
“You kidnap Palestinian students from campus and torture them in your jails. You torture your political rivals. The suffering of the Palestinian people is the outcome of your selfish political interests. You are the greatest enemy of the Palestinian people.
“If Israel did not exist, you would have no one to blame. Take responsibility for the outcome of your own actions.
“You fan the flames of conflict to maintain your abusive power.

true, but its a miracle Abbas and his murder gangsters haven’t managed to exterminate this fellow by now
This is a brave man. It’s too bad his words would be denounced by today’s college students.
Ain’t It The Truth!!!
Well, the U.N. will make sure he never gets a platform to speak again.
If Israel did not exist they would fight themselves for centuries!
They’d still blame Jews in general, and lacking that, Christians.
Israel, a christian Lebannon, and a Kurdistan made up of FOUR existing countries. Form an alliance w/Jordan’s blessing and we’re in good shape. Let’s not forget Egypt.
Converted to Christianity?
What does Islam have to say about somebody who does that?
Sura 4:89, “Those who reject Islam must be killed. If they turn back (from Islam), take hold of them and kill them wherever you find them.”
Does he mention the same crimes committed by Hamas? Thanks george76.
Lebannon was once 80% christian.
The Arabs need the Israelis to deflect the blame for their systemic corruption and ineptness.
They will always find someone else to blame. Anybody but the guy who actually deserves the blame: the pedo profit Mad Moe (Pig Pee be upon him!).
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
