Abbas Rewrites Jewish and Zionist History

(Jerusalem Post) Adam Rasgon - PA President Mahmoud Abbas told the Palestinian National Council in Ramallah on Monday that the Jews in Europe were massacred because of their social behavior related to money-lending. "From the 11th century until the Holocaust that took place in Germany, the Jews...were subjected to a massacre every 10 to 15 years. But why did this happen? The Jewish issue that was widespread in all European countries...was not because of their religion, but rather their social behavior related to usury and banks." Abbas cited a theory that Ashkenazi Jews hail from the Khazar Kingdom in southern Russia and "they have no relationship to Semitic culture, Abraham, Jacob and others." Moreover, he reiterated that Israel is "a colonial project....The story of building a national home didn't come from the Jews, but rather the colonial states."
