SUMMARY:Lies and Empty Promises: How Abbas fooled the West into Recognition of a Palestinian State
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \nSeveral Western states\, once Israel’s allies\, intend to recognize a Palestinian state in September at the UN. These countries see this recognition as a final stamp of legitimacy to the Abbas-led Palestinian Authority and a punishment of Israel for its war in Gaza. In our conversation\, we ask: What was the lie that Abbas told French President Macron that was used to justify his call for recognition? Why should the Palestinian people\, even more than the PA\, be rejected for statehood? Why is a PA state bad for Israel and the West? And why the US and Israel should respond to the PA statehood farce by designating the PA as a terror organization. Itamar Marcus joins us to provide much-sought answers to all of these questions. \nAbout our Speaker: Itamar Marcus is Founder & Director of Palestinian Media Watch (PMW)\, an Israeli research institute known internationally for its in-depth research of Palestinian society. He has presented PMW findings dozens of times in Congress\, parliaments and conferences. PMW’s reports led to the Taylor Force Act\, Israel’s “Deduction Law\,” and his report on the PA-ICC contacts led to the US imposing sanctions on the PA\, this past July. Itamar is a frequent guest on various international news networks\, and is the author of “Deception: Betraying the Peace Process” & “Teaching Terror to Tots”. He was recognized among the world’s “top 100 people positively influencing Jewish life or the State of Israel.” by Algemeiner.
