Die von der EU finanzierte palästinensische Nachrichtenagentur Ma’an, veröffentlichte im November auf ihrer Website einen antisemitischen Artikel, der von der israelischen Organisation Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) scharf kritisiert wurde.
In dem von ihm verfassten Artikel, beschreibt Sawsan Najib Abed Al-Halim, die Juden u.A. als: “Die Wurzel aller Konflikte in der Welt, verflucht sollen sie sein und ausgestoßen in jeder Ecke der Erde.” Weiter schreibt er in dem Artikel, dass Juden feindlich gesinnt sind, böse und brutal, sowie Quelle aller Intrigen und “Allah hat angeordnet,” dass alle Juden dazu bestimmt sind, “gedemütigt” zu werden. Der hasserfüllte Artikel geht im gleichen Tenor weiter.
Die Ma’an News Agency, ist ein integraler Bestandteil des Ma’an-Netzwerks und wurde mit großzügiger Unterstützung der dänischen Vertretung der Palästinensischen Autonomiebehörde und des Niederländischen Representative Office der PA gegründet. Einige der Spender im Ma’an-Netzwerk sind die Europäische Kommission (EU), UNDP, UNESCO, die Regierung Dänemarks, die Regierung der Niederlande, und Großbritanniens (UKaid).
Nachdem die Organisation Palestinian Media Watch (PMW), den Artikel vom Arabischen ins Englische übersetzt und veröffentlicht hatte, wurde der am 18. November 2012 veröffentlichte Artikel am 29. Januar 2012, nur drei Stunden nach der Übersetzung durch PMW von der Ma’an-Webseite entfernt.
Die Verantwortlichen von Ma’an schrieben als Begründung für das Entfernen des Artikel, dieser wäre “von einem Leser der Agentur als Kommentar geschrieben worden und nicht von einem Ma’an Journalisten, Schriftsteller oder Editor.
“Der Artikel wurde während des Krieges gegen Gaza veröffentlicht, in Reaktion auf Israels Operation “Pillar of Defense” und die Mitarbeiter von Ma’an waren durch die Arbeitsbelastung die der Krieg verursachte nicht in der Lage, um den Inhalt des Artikel gründlich zu überprüfen. Der Artikel wurde in der Rubrik “Beiträge von Lesern” veröffentlicht. Allerdings wird Ma’an in Zukunft die Veröffentlichung von Leserbeiträgen überprüfen, um das Auftreten ähnlicher Fehler zu vermeiden.”
Soweit die Erklärung der u.A. von der Europäischen Union mitfinanzierten Palästinensischen Nachrichtenagentur Ma’an.
Nachfolgend ein Auszug des auf der Ma’an-Website veröffentlichten antisemitischen Artikels in englischer Sprache, (Hervorhebung hinzugefügt):
“Israel is Trembling”
By Sawsan Najib Abd Al-Halim
Nov. 18, 2012,
Ma’an News Agency
“We ‘re used to seeing vampires in Dracula movies, where the murderer and the vampire act in the dead of night, and as soon as dawn breaks, the murderer disappears and hides during the day.
The brave warrior, who at the very least has moral values, fights in the daytime. In all wars, in all eras, honorable nations conducted their battles during the day and slept at night. But has Israel even a trace of morality?
A brave warrior is proud when he confronts another [warrior] as brave as he, and the more he is struck, the stronger he grows, proud in his struggle and respectful of his adversary. But since Jews are – as our grandparents said of them – sons of death (expression of contempt, meaning ‘a coward, ‘ -Ed.), they are too cowardly to confront an enemy face to face, especially if their enemy is as well armed as they…
Jews think that their fortresses will protect them from death, but any breach of these fortresses or protective walls instills panic and fear in their hearts, and they are seized by fear and trembling. If a missile falls beyond their protective walls or if even a bullet passes over them, you can see how their hearts fill with horror – and this is because Allah has stricken fear in their hearts and decreed humiliation and degradation upon them until Judgment Day…
Historically, it is known that the lives of Jews have always been war and fighting. The only reason for this is that they have been outcasts in every corner of the earth, and not one nation in the world respects them, for they cause strife, and scheme everywhere they settle. We know that they have been defeated in every war they have fought throughout history, and they have been dispersed in every direction, but Allah ‘s curse upon them and his fury at them cause them to continue with their transgression and tyranny.
A coward acts brutally when he can, but runs for cover humiliated, when he faces anyone who is his equal. Our fathers told us of one Palestinian before 1948 who was holding a stick while walking the streets of Tel Aviv, and he drove away scores of cowardly Jews…
Psychologically, they have been defeated through the ages and feel inferior to the nations and societies in which they live, because of the hostility and evil rising in their hearts towards others and for their plots and schemes against the nations who know with certainty that the Jews are the root of conflict in the world, wherever they reside.
Jews think that every shout is against them, and what better proof is there than the slogan they voiced to the world – which is ‘Antisemitism. ‘
Therefore, the only way we can deal with them, when we are weak militarily compared to Israel ‘s power, is to stick to the threat to annihilate Israel, not to submit to its [Israel 's] desire for a cease fire, and keep the flame of resistance burning. Rather than [violently] resist and then back off somewhat, whereby we give them the impression that we are afraid of them. There is nothing wrong with our sitting with them to talk, but the resistance must always continue. Late President Yasser Arafat, peace be upon him, understood the Jews ‘ weakness, so he showed them the face of peace in negotiations, and at the same time raised the slogan ‘Every day a settler. ‘ This is the slogan that terrorized the Jews, and which many Palestinians have forgotten. They may have forgotten why the comrade-fighter Marwan Barghouti was arrested. Wasn ‘t it because he was the one given the job to fulfill this slogan?
Let us again be united in the message against the Jews and turn the weapons against them. Every time the guns and stones are directed at the Jews, they become angry, seized by fear, their brutality increases and our sacrificing increases more and more. Jews know that the more their brutality increases, so our resolve and defiance are strengthened against them, until Allah will strike terror in their hearts and they will be driven away from our land humiliated. This is a revolution until victory.” [Ma 'an News Agency 's website, posted Nov. 18, 2012, removed Jan. 29, 2012]
