A Compendium of Hate:
Palestinian Authority Antisemitism Since the Hebron Accord
EQUATING ZIONISM WITH RACISM
"There are many indications that the American initiative, in case it is proposed, will reflect a strong bias toward the Zionist-racist solution to the Palestine problem... It will adopt the idea of giving the name ‘Palestinian State’ to lands crowded with Palestinian population and construction in the West Bank and Gaza… Hard conditions will be forced on this state which will be demilitarized and limited [in authority] enabling the Zionist entity to control its affairs in such a way that will make this state to look like a series of "enclaves" within the Zionist-racist entity called ‘Israel.’"
--- from an interview with Palestinian National Council member Ahmad Sidqi al-Dajani which appeared in the official PA newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadeeda on October 20, 1997
"Zionist thought gave birth to political Zionism ... this blind military power and extreme racism. For one hundred years the Zionist movement has been spreading the poison of Zionist ideology... What is happening these days, expresses this ideology which their children suckle with their mother’s milk...When the UN General Assembly defined Zionism as a form of racism, it expressed this as a fact, a fact which is backed up by Israeli operations which the human conscience cannot bear. Zionism remains ... another face of racism, despite all the pressure the US has put in order to change the UN decision or to cancel it... Accordingly, we are facing a Zionist ideology which belongs to a dynasty of dinosaurs. And if human history has swallowed all the dynasties of dinosauran ideologies from Hulagu [the Mongolian conqueror] to Hitler, in addition to the racist ideology in South Africa, the survival of Zionist ideology on this piece of our planet, is a deviant phenomenon and a historical lie..."

"The Israeli colonialist occupation of Palestine is turning into aggression against all Islam and Christian holy sites. Zionist racism reaches its peak with this Talmudic offensive, which tears the pages of the Koran, and which offends the Master of Prophets, Muhammad, Allah’s blessing be with him, and the Blessed Virgin, mother of Christ, may they rest in peace."
--- Hasan Al-Kashef, Director-General of the PA Information Ministry, quoted in the official PA newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadeeda, July 7, 1997
