Report: Abbas Accuses Israel of Unleashing Wild Boars Against Palestinians
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh and Herb Keinon - Several Palestinian media outlets on Saturday quoted PA President Mahmoud Abbas as accusing Israel of using "wild pigs" against Palestinians in the West Bank during a speech in Ramallah on Friday. In the past, the PA has claimed the IDF and settlers released wild pigs in Palestinian lands to damage crops and intimidate farmers. "Every night, they [Israelis] release wild pigs against us," Abbas was quoted as saying. An Israeli government official responded, "It's a pity the Palestinian Authority president chooses to propagate such rubbish, and it raises questions about his real position on Israel."
