While Palestinian Authority (PA) TV has often been caught inciting violence and hatred of Jews, a recent broadcast by a European Union (EU) funded NGO has brought the defamation of Jews to new lows.

In an episode of the program Sights of Jerusalem broadcast October 18 on official PA TV, Jews are dehumanized as “crows” and “rats,” and further called “foreigners” in Jerusalem, the 3,000 year old Jewish capital.

Selections from the program subtitled into English by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) can be seen here:

In the video, the narrator calls the Israeli flag a “rag dipped in our blood,” claiming that Arabs cannot raise their heads in Jerusalem.

This claim belies rampant Arab violence in the capital city, in which a baby was recently injured by a stone thrown at her by Jerusalem Arabs, and Hebrew University’s Mount Scopus campus has come to be termed a “war zone” by students due to violence from neighboring Arab residents.

The video further shows hareidi-religious Jews dressed in their traditional black garb, as the narrator says “the crows pass by and caw.” The dehumanization continues as a visual of Israeli soldiers is accompanied by the words “the rats are armed.”

The propaganda of delegitimization reaches a peak with the line “Jerusalem will never accept any language other than Arabic and any nationality other than Palestinian, no matter how much the flags of the foreigners fly in its sky.”

Particularly of note is the source of funding behind the video, as revealed by PMW.

The program was co-produced by PA TV and PYALARA, a PA NGO for youth. PYALARA is funded by NDC (NGO Development Center).

Donors to NDC include the EU, the World Bank, the French government’s Agence Francaise de Developpement, and a donor consortium of Switzerland, Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden.

  1. What a bitch this commentator is!! The world can feel and live our pain by losing their own!! When will it stop? It won’t….not as long as we are left in man’s hands!

  2. Donors to NDC include the EU, the World Bank, the French government’s Agence Francaise de Developpement, and a donor consortium of Switzerland, Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden.

    Most of these donors are suffering at the hands of their muslims: Israel should give training to jihadis to burn down the others; help them conquer europe. A fate well deserved, they should burn to the ground. Switzerland especially robbed the jews and should be burned to cinders.

  3. With their return on investment, all the Europeans need now is for their Palestinians to set up concentration camps for the Jews in Palestine and they’re in business.
