Echoes of classical anti-Semitism:

"We are fighting and struggling with an enemy who is Shylock. We must know that he is Shylock."

--- Othman Abu Gharbiya, Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat's Adviser on National Political Guidance, in a radio interview (Voice of Palestine, 15 March 1997)

"Israeli authorities... infected by injection 300 Palestinian children with the HIV virus during the years of the intifada."

--- Palestinian U.N. representative Nabil Ramlawi at a session of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights in Geneva (Jerusalem Post, 17 March 1997)

"We must not forget that the American administration suffers from a disease whose name is the Zionist lobby in Washington."

--- PA Cabinet Secretary Ahmad Abdul Rahman in a radio interview (Voice of Palestine, 14 April 1997)

"Five Zionist Jews are running the policy of the United States in the Middle East: Madeleine Albright, William Cohen, Dennis Ross, Miller and Martin Indyk. It is not possible that the American nation, which consists of 250 million people, can not find anyone other than five Zionist Jews to conduct the peace process with the Palestinians."

--- PA Justice Minister Freih Abu Middein (Yediot Ahronot, 13 April 1997)
