Arab list candidate says IS inspired by Zionism
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Bar-Ilan University election conference boycotted by Amos Yadlin becomes stormy, as the head of the Joint (Arab) List’s communications unit, Raja Za’atra, says Islamic State was “inspired” by Zionism and that Hamas is not a terror organization.
“From where did IS learn these crimes? Look at what the Zionist movement did in 1948. The rapes, looting, massacres – were all carried out also here,” News1, an online service, quotes Za’atra as saying.
Asked whether Hamas is a terror organization, Za’atra answers: “No. A people living under occupation has a right to resist the occupation.”
