Yom HaShoah 2025: How the Palestinian Authority Replicates Nazi Ideology

As Israel commemorates Yom HaShoah — Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Day — Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) is sending out a six-point outline of its recent warning that the Palestinian Authority (PA) has adopted basic components of Hitler’s Nazi ideology.
The PA describes the Jews as a subhuman, dangerous threat to humanity that must be exterminated.
PMW first published this warning in an op-ed, and here are the key components of the Palestinian Authority’s ideology:
1. Jews endanger humanity — they ruin every society in which they live:
- Official PA daily: “From all corners of the globe, I see and understand the harm they [Jews] have caused … They want to subjugate the entire world.”
2. Judaism itself endangers humanity
- Israeli affairs expert on PA TV: “The Israeli culture of murder and destruction … is based on the Torah.”
3. Jews are subhuman:
- Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor Mahmoud Al-Habbash: “[Jews are] grazing herds of humanoids — people or creatures that Allah created in the form of humans … apes and pigs.”
4. Accordingly, Jews are hated and deserve to be hated:
- Mahmoud Abbas: “Europe hates the Jews … because of their social role… . Hitler … fought the Jews because they worked based on usury and money. In other words, they caused ruin.”
- PA TV: “Their [Jewish] thinking is based on racism that caused them to be hated everywhere.”
5. Finally, the colonial states created Zionism/Israel to get rid of their Jews:
- Official PA TV: “The Europeans hated them and wanted to get rid of them, so the European countries … had the idea of establishing a Jewish state’”
- Official PA TV: “They — Europe and America — succeeded in getting rid of the Jews, whom they view as human waste, and they threw them out into Palestine.”
6. Humanity will be saved through the extermination of the Jews
- Repeatedly on official PA TV: “Allah, strike the thieving Jews … count them and kill them one by one, do not leave even one.”
The world cannot make the same mistake of ignoring genocidal hate that it made in 1939, or that Israel made in October 2023, for that matter. When people say they want to kill you and back it up as God’s directive, they must be taken seriously.
This article must be read as a warning, and you can read the text of PMW’s full article.

‘With or Without Russia’s Help’: Iran Pledges to Block South Caucasus Route Opened Up By Peace Deal

i24 News – Iran will block the establishment of a US-backed transit corridor in the South Caucasus region with or without Moscow’s help, a senior adviser to Iran’s supreme leader was quoted as saying on Saturday by the Iran International website, one day after the historic peace agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
“Mr. Trump thinks the Caucasus is a piece of real estate he can lease for 99 years,” Ali Akbar Velayati said of the so-called Zangezur corridor, the establishment of which is stipulated in the peace deal unveiled on Friday by US President Donald Trump. The White House said the transit route would facilitate greater exports of energy and other resources.
“This passage will not become a gateway for Trump’s mercenaries — it will become their graveyard,” the Khamenei advisor added.
Baku and Yerevan have been at loggerheads since the late 1980s when Nagorno-Karabakh, a mountainous Azerbaijani region mostly populated by ethnic Armenians, broke away from Azerbaijan with support from Armenia. Azerbaijan took back full control of the region in 2023, prompting or forcing almost all of the territory’s 100,000 ethnic Armenians to flee to Armenia.
Yet that painful history was put to the side on Friday at the White House, as Trump oversaw a signing ceremony, flanked by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
The peace deal with Azerbaijan—a pro-Western ally of Israel—is expected to pull Armenia out of the Russian and Iranian sphere of influence and could transform the South Caucasus, an energy-producing region neighboring Russia, Europe, Turkey and Iran.

UK Police Arrest 150 at Protest for Banned Palestine Action Group

London’s Metropolitan Police said on Saturday it had arrested 150 people at a protest against Britain’s decision to ban the group Palestine Action, adding it was making further arrests.
Officers made arrests after crowds, waving placards expressing support for the group, gathered in Parliament Square, the force said on X.
Protesters, some wearing black and white Palestinian scarves, chanted “shame on you” and “hands off Gaza,” and held signs such as “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action,” video taken by Reuters at the scene showed.
In July, British lawmakers banned Palestine Action under anti-terrorism legislation after some of its members broke into a Royal Air Force base and damaged planes in protest against Britain’s support for Israel.
The ban makes it a crime to be a member of the group, carrying a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison.
The co-founder of Palestine Action, Huda Ammori, last week won a bid to bring a legal challenge against the ban.

‘No Leniency’: Iran Announces Arrest of 20 ‘Zionist Agents’

i24 News – Iranian authorities have in recent months arrested 20 people charged with being “Israeli Mossad operatives,” the judiciary said, adding that the Islamic regime will mete out the harshest punishments.
“The judiciary will show no leniency toward spies and agents of the Zionist regime, and with firm rulings, will make an example of them all,” spokesperson Asghar Jahangiri told Iranian media. However, it is understood that an unspecified number of detainees were released, apparently after the charges against them could not be substantiated.
The Islamic Republic was left reeling by a devastating 12-day war with Israel earlier in the summer that left a significant proportion of its military arsenal in ruins and dealt a serious setback to its uranium enrichment program. The fallout included an uptick in executions of Iranians convicted of spying for Israel, with at least eight death sentences carried out in recent months. Hit with international sanctions, the country is in dire economic straights, with frequent energy outages and skyrocketing unemployment.
In recent weeks Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi affirmed that Tehran cannot give up on its nuclear enrichment program even as it was severely damaged during the war.
“It is stopped because, yes, damages are serious and severe. But obviously we cannot give up of enrichment because it is an achievement of our own scientists. And now, more than that, it is a question of national pride,” the official told Fox News.
