(Jewish Group) Palestinian president's Holocaust claim condemned

THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!

This article is posted here NOT to discuss the I/P situation, but rather the misappropriation of the Holocaust and the distortion of the event, as well as various leaders' condemnation. If you wish to discuss it from an I/P point of view, then repost it in the I/P group.

Israeli and German leaders have expressed outrage after the Palestinian president accused Israel of committing "50 Holocausts" against his people.

Mahmoud Abbas made the claim during a news conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin on Tuesday.

Mr Scholz said nothing at the time, but later called the president's comments "intolerable and unacceptable".

Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid said Mr Abbas's accusation was "not only a moral disgrace, but a monstrous lie".
