Articles and Interviews Books

Hanan Ashrawi has been a notorious opponent of peace and human rights, a sort of Wicked Witch of the Middle East. As Education Minister for Yasser Arafat, she did more than her share to damage prospects for peace or prosperity in the region. She has supported Muslim attackers of Israel who have shown some serious opposition not merely to human rights for Jews but to human rights for Christians and human rights for women. In this article, we get to see Rose Marie Berger interview her.

In this interview, Ashrawi says that truth "is not a popular commodity." Well, truth is a very popular commodity with me, and I assure you that if far more anti-Zionists would value it, the world would be a much better place.

Ashrawi says that the United States should not be "complicit" with Israel. I wonder what alternative she has in mind. If she feels it is wrong to support human rights for Israelis, just what human rights does she feel it might be legitimate to support?

Just to make it clear that she has not reformed, Ashrawi has something to say about Rachel Corrie, a member of the shameful International Solidarity Movement who perished in an accident while interfering with Israeli counterterrorism operations.

Ashrawi says that the Levantine Arabs can put olive branches in Israeli tanks and guns, but "only if they stop shooting at us first." Of course, if the Arabs stop shooting, no one will have to worry about such things, since the war will be over.

I found this article unhelpful.

I bought this to copy and give to our spelling bee winner for our school, and all I received was a partial sentence. There is nothing else available. There may have been an interview and an article, however, it is not on here. Do not waste the money on this.
