AFP incites against Jews
IRIS Blog finds the Agence France Presse just going along and acting as if an act of vandalism against a mosque was committed by "settlers", when there's every chance it was committed by Muslims themselves in order to incite more violence against Jews.

The story doesn't make sense. The insult was written in Hebrew? Why not write it in Arabic if the goal was to offend Arabs? We're only talking about 2-3 words to make his point, after all. He drew a Star of David? This is a ubiquitous staple of Arab anti-Semitism. He wore a kippa (skullcap) while writing the precise formula of death sanctioned by Muslim Law? As likely as a naked female burglar hitting Mike Tyson's house. A Muslim devoted to the mosque cowered in hiding under such conditions without raising an alarm? Farfetched.AFP is just as worthless as the AP and Reuters, and does not deserve to be in the business.
Why is the burden of proof always on the Jew? Islamists and Arab dictators float monstrous anti-Semitic blood libels on a daily basis to spread incitement. The examples are everywhere but the news reporting (Jews use the blood of non-Jews in holiday food preparation, Israel perpetrated 9/11 so the Jews were told to stay home, the Holocaust never happened, Israel contributed to the Holocaust, the Holocaust should happen to the Jews again). The sole witness to the alleged incident had likely heard more anti-Jewish blood libels sermonized in that mosque than had Hitler's speech consultant. (I'm referring to the German Hitler, not to the more than 25 notable Palestinians of that name.)

The mainstream media has rarely pointed out that Palestinian power-brokers' disdain for Western norms is only exceeded by their avarice and capricious violence. Except when it is used as an excuse for Palestinians' en masse endorsement of a party dedicated to genocide, in which case it's universally cited. The fact that Hamas' charter is essentially the equivalent of this grafitti, full of references to the Protocols of Zion and Freemasons, is omitted.
