Palestinian Leader in Chile: Israel is Worse than the Nazis
President of Palestinian Federation of South America Mauricio Abu-Gosh says Israel has “outdone its teachers.”
“The Nazis were children next to the actual Zionists as they are incarnated through the State of Israel,” Mauricio Abu-Gosh, a leader of the large and influential Palestinian community of Chile, was quoted as saying in Chilean media on Sunday.
Responding to an interview with the president of the Jewish community in Chile Shai Agosin that appeared in The Jerusalem Post on Friday, Abu-Gosh said the Jewish state was a product of Nazism and that it “has outdone its teachers in comparative terms.”
He added: “The Palestinians are suffering directly from a brutal genocide at the hands of the Israeli army.”
Abu-Gosh rejected Agosin’s comments that ties between Jews and Palestinians in Chile used to be good before taking a turn for the worse over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying the two communities were “never close and I can’t imagine how they can be more distant at the moment.”
The Palestinian Federation of Chile is a group representing an estimated 400,000 Chileans of Palestinian descent, the largest such community in South America.
I hate Chilean Nazis.
