Fatah party said to post cartoon linking Israel to Paris attacks
The Facebook page of PA President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party is said to have posted a cartoon implying that Israel is aiding the Islamic State group, which carried out a string of terror attacks in Paris Friday.
An Iranian cartoon depicts Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu aiding an Islamic State shooter in Paris.
The cartoon shows Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu helping an Islamic State terrorist aim his machine gun from a perch on the Eiffel Tower.
The watchdog Palestinian Media Watch reports that it was posted to Fatah’s official Facebook page on Monday.
The cartoon is not new — it was posted to an official Iranian news site in the wake of a previous wave of terror attacks in France in January of this year.
It also participated in a contest for anti-Islamic State cartoons in Iran in May.
