ARAB MEDIA BLAMES ISRAEL FOR GAZA INFIGHTING

Arab media uses cartoons to blame Israel for Gaza infighting (Jihad Watch)

It was only a matter of time before the Arab media pulled out the Nazi propaganda-style cartoons to portray Israel as the culprit for all that is wrong in the Gaza Strip. Goebbels-style antisemitism is alive and well in the Arab world.

This from Ynetnews:

Inter-Palestinian fighting in the Gaza Strip has unleashed a barrage of virulently anti-Israeli and anti-Semitic cartoons in the Arab and Muslim media, according to the Arab Affairs desk of the Anti-Defamation League Israel.

Cartoons and caricatures in the recent Arab press depict Jews in stereotypical fashion, as manipulative and conspiratorial and with hooked noses, long beards and black hats.
Recent cartoons portray Israel and the Jews as encouraging, mocking and enjoying the conflict between Hamas and Fatah.

Needless to say, I am not holding my breath waiting for a British media boycott of these newspapers.
