With Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon recently crediting the Palestinian Authority for clamping down on incitement against the Jewish state, official Palestinian television last week blamed Israel for the tsunami in southeast Asia, preached the destruction of Israel and the U.S., and declared America the prime sponsor of world terror.

"The Muslim remembers how the Jews corrupted the land ... . They invest in the East Asian countries, which were destroyed [by the tsunami] because of the Jewish and American corruption and destruction," said Palestinian preacher Sheik Ibrahim Madiras Friday during his weekly sermon broadcast on PA television, according to a translation by Palestinian Media Watch.

"The Jews are Jews. Their character and custom are the corruption and destruction of this land. We keep warning you: the Jews are a cancer that spreads inside the body of the Islamic and Arab nation," continued Madiras.

I know this is old news, but I thought it to be interesting in the light of what is happening over in the Middle East--mainly in Israel and Iraq.
