The Prime Minister of Malaysia told a visiting group of Palestinians that Israel’s actions were worse than the 9/11 attacks.

Speaking to the group at his official residence, Mahathir was quoted as saying that “while the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack gave the impression that the perpetrators of the crime were terrible, what the Israelis were doing to the Palestinians was far worse.”

The Malaysian leader also sought to justify Palestinian terror against Israel, asserting that when land belonging to Muslims was taken away, “they had to react and reacting violently was the only avenue left.”

In a reference to Palestinian suicide bombings, Mahathir said, “the people love their country so much that they are willing to die for it.”

Right. So full of love that they just can’t help murdering little children in their beds.
