UW Newspaper Hits Bottom

One of the standard lies of Palestinian propaganda is that the Israeli government somehow deliberately provokes incidents like yesterday’s bus bombing in order to manufacture an excuse to launch incursions into sacred Palestinian land.

It’s a twisted rationale, and very typical of terrorist groups like the PFLP, who employ such tangled immoral rhetoric to justify their atrocities.

And today University of Wisconsin student newspaper The Badger Herald publishes an article pushing this lie, by Fayyad Sbaihat—who is alleged to be a member of the PFLP, and is majoring in chemical engineering at UW-Madison: Bombing in Jerusalem surprises no one. (Hat tip: Jax.)

After the Israeli attack on Gaza Wednesday, a Palestinian militant said he would “hit inside Israel, until the Israelis make Sharon regret this incursion.” A response came, whether it was the full or a partial response is to be seen over the next few days. The bombing in Jerusalem was an expected and desired (by Sharon) outcome of the Gaza incursion, and the emerging fact is Sharon will soon have as much Israeli blood on his hands as he does Palestinian.

The link above leads to a page where you can leave a comment about Sbaihat’s article.

Here’s an entry from December in which Sbaihat is discussed, with more links to info about this person.

It no longer surprises me to find university newspapers publishing this kind of sneaky, murder-enabling garbage, unfortunately.
