Abbas’ comments on Hitler and the Holocaust
In a meeting with Fatah’s Revolutionary Council, that was recently translated and made available to non-Arabic speakers, Abbas claimed that Adolph Hitler “fought the Jews because they were dealing with users and money.”
Abbas went on to deny that Ashkenazi Jews had any historic ties to Israel and were actually descended from Khazars.
Abbas’ speech was also condemned by the state of Israel’s official X account, who wrote “Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas: Hitler Fought the European Jews Because of Their Usury, Money Dealings, It Was Not about Antisemitism.”
“This is the same Mahmoud Abbas whose doctoral dissertation is known for its Holocaust denial.”
