PA libel: Israeli rabbis called to poison all Palestinian wells - PMW Bulletins

The Palestinian Authority has revived the medieval blood libel that Jews are poisoning the wells. The PA even named a nonexistent rabbi and rabbinical council as being responsible for this call to poison all Palestinian water sources.

Official PA TV reporter:
"An Israeli human rights organization has exposed a religious ruling issued by Rabbi Shlomo Melamed (sic), Chairman of the Council of Settlement Rabbis (sic), that gave the settlers permission to poison the drinking water and the natural wells in the [Palestinian] villages and towns throughout the West Bank."
[Official PA TV News, June 20, 2016]​

The PA Ministry of Foreign Affairs went so far as to warn that there will be thousands of Palestinian deaths, and condemned the international community for its silence.

"What is the international community waiting for to interfere; the death of thousands of Palestinians of thirst? To meet such incident with silence and ignore the war Israel is waging against Palestinians is a cause of shame for the international community."
[PA Ministry of Foreign Affairs, June 19, 2016]​

Palestinian Media Watch has researched different sources to demonstrate how this libel has evolved and expanded since its beginning just a week ago. The following is the anatomy of this Palestinian Authority libel:

Stage 1- The libel is seeded

This latest libel started recently when Yehuda Shaul, a leader of the extreme left-wing Israeli NGO named Breaking the Silence, told foreigners in a private lecture that Israelis - "settlers" - had "poisoned" all the water of a Palestinian town a number of years ago causing the Palestinians to leave:

"This village, actually, it's new, but they came back because a few years ago, the settlers basically poisoned all the water systems of the village."
[Israeli website NRG, June 14, 2016]

Stage 2 - PLO expands the NGO's story, from a single event "years ago" to a broad current policy

The PLO's expanded libel rewrote the NGO's story about an alleged "poisoning" of one water system that supposedly happened a few years ago into the libel that Israelis are now, in 2016, poisoning all the water sources "throughout the West Bank." In addition, they created another fictitious story that Israeli TV had reported on a religious ruling "a year ago" by an unknown Rabbi Shlomo Melamed "giving the settlers permission to poison the drinking water... throughout the West Bank."

This is the PLO version of the libel:

"An Israeli human rights organization has exposed that Jewish settlers are working intently on poisoning the drinking water in the Palestinian towns and villages throughout the West Bank. Yehuda Shaul, founder of the organization Breaking the Silence... said that the goal of poisoning the water is to cause 'the local Palestinians to leave their villages and towns, so that the settlers will be able to take control of their lands.'...​

It should be noted that an investigative report that was broadcast on the Israeli [TV] Channel 10 around a year ago exposed that Rabbi Shlomo Melamed, chairman of what is known by the name 'Council of Settlement Rabbis' (Ed. note: no such rabbi or body exists), issued a religious ruling giving the settlers permission to poison the drinking water and the naturally flowing wells [of Palestinians] throughout the West Bank."
[PLO's National Bureau to Defend the Land and Resist Settlement website,
June 16, 2016]

Note: This story has been denied by both the supposed source of the story, the Breaking the Silence group, and by a Rabbi Zalmen Melamed - there is no Rabbi Shlomo Melamed. (See source below)

Stage 3 - Palestinian Authority Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls Israel's "poisoning" the wells "a crime against humanity" and condemns the international community's "silence," and for not preventing the future "death of thousands of Palestinians":

"This call by Rabbi Mlmad [sic] is considered a crime against humanity because it targets humans, animals, corps and all forms of life in the occupied Palestinian territory.
The ministry held the Israeli government full responsibility of the consequences of such calls. It demanded the arrest of the Rabbi for inciting murder and the enforcement of necessary procedures to protect Palestinians from individuals who might attempt to poison water sources.
What is the international community waiting for to interfere; the death of thousands of Palestinians of thirst? To meet such incident with silence and ignore the war Israel is waging against Palestinians is a cause of shame for the international community."
[PA Ministry of Foreign Affairs, June 19, 2016]​

Stage 4- Official PA TV News yesterday further expanded the libel, saying that it was not a single rabbi but an entire rabbinic council that recently made the decision. It further expanded the libel by explaining the Israeli motivation to poison the water: Kill Palestinians and force them to emigrate.

News report on official PA TV

Official PA TV newsreader: "The Council of Settlement Rabbis (sic) has called to poison the drinking water in all districts of the homeland [Palestine], in order to cause [Palestinian] residents to emigrate, or in order to kill them."
Official PA TV reporter: "As part of the Israeli attempts to utilize religious sources of authority to achieve political goals, an Israeli human rights organization has exposed a religious ruling issued by Rabbi Shlomo Melamed (sic), Chairman of the Council of Settlement Rabbis (sic), that gave the settlers permission to poison the drinking water and the natural wells in the [Palestinian] villages and towns throughout the West Bank. This, with the goal of causing the [Palestinian] residents to leave their lands, enabling the settlers to take control of them."
[Official PA TV News, June 20, 2016]

When the PA shouts its lies and libel so emphatically many around the world believe them. The Arab League was quick to accept the libel and join in condemning Israel:

"The Arab League strongly condemned the call of the chairman of the Council of Settlement Rabbis, Rabbi Shlomo Melamed, which gives the settlers permission to poison the drinking water that sustains the Palestinian towns and villages throughout the occupied West Bank."
[WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), June 20, 2016]​

Finally, it should be noted that the Jerusalem Post has reported that no rabbi of the name "Rabbi Shlomo Melamed" exists, and even the left-wing Israeli NGO upon which the PA is basing its story - has denied the “the poisoning of the wells” story:

"The Jerusalem Post was unable to find evidence that either a Rabbi Shlomo Mlma or Mlmad, or the Council of Rabbis in West Bank settlements exist.

There is a Council of Rabbis in Judea and Samaria, led by Yishai Babad. There is a Rabbi Zalman Melamed of Beit El. Mlmad is similar to Melamed, and Zalman is Yiddish for Shlomo.
Rabbi Zalman Melamed told Gidon Shaviv, a senior research analyst for press watchdog CAMERA, "I did not say that and do not believe any rabbi would say something like that." Melamed also called the report a blood libel.

In addition, Breaking the Silence's spokesman said he did not know of any testimony about poisoning water."
[The Jerusalem Post, June 20, 2016]

This analysis of the development and expansion of the PA libel shows how anxious the Palestinian Authority is to demonize and libel Israel in front of its people and the world. From one false accusation about a supposed poisoning of water "a few years ago," the Palestinian Authority in just a week, without any information or basis, is now accusing Israel of planning to murder thousands of Palestinians by poisoning wells throughout the Palestinian Authority. The PA even invented a rabbi and a rabbinical council to blame for the poisoning. And to top it off they are even condemning the international community for not stopping Israel from its planned mass murder.

Finally, it should also be noted that Israelis and Palestinians share many of the same water sources.

[Shusha]

Here's what really happened:

On 13 July 2004 in the Arab village of Hirbat Atwana, near Hebron, someone found rotting chicken carcasses in the well. The Arab villagers blamed Jews from the nearby town of Havat Maon. No, the villagers were not poisoned. No, the villagers were not forced to abandon their village.

Still, it was a nasty act of violence, it was wrong and I condemn the act.

 

[SAYIT]

And here we are nearly 2 full weeks after Freeman's bogus blood libel was proven to be a total FABRICATION and just as long since Humanity challenged the board's Zionists to condemn the non-existent rabbi's message and not one of our board Nazis has posted a mea culpa for having swallowed the BS whole or for promoting it here.

Not one!

Freeman actually doubled down on his blunder (or was it intentional?) and Penelope was so enraged she went off on the Jooos monopolization of the term "anti-Semite."

FTR, according to the dictionary Semite does indeed refer to those who are indigenous to the Mideast and anti-Semite does indeed refer to idiots who mindlessly hate Jooos and post that hate here, often in the form of baseless blood libels. The term "anti-Semite," as most knowledgeable posters already know, was coined in the 19th Century by a Jew-hating German in search of a catchy name for his new organization ... The League of Anti-Semites.

Wilhelm Marr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Interestingly, Marr renounced his mindless bigotry late in life and even published an essay entitled Testament of an Antisemite in which he explained the history of his thinking and went on to condemn "the beer drinking leaders, the gay 'Heil' shouters of modern anti-Semitism" and the crude prejudice against Jewish writers and thinkers so regularly expressed here by the "Freemans," "Humanities," and "Penelopes" of this board.

Another jewish bearded crow calls settlers to kill the palestinians. » Rabbi Calls for Poisoning of Palestinian Water Supply– IMEMC News

Let's see how many of the Israel supporters condemn this incitement for terrorism!

Why must you call her a name. I also resent the fact they Jews think for some odd reason that semite belongs to them, and well we all know how false that is. Palestinians are Semites, most self proclaimed jews are not.

Humanity

Come on now. Fair's fair. You wanted us to condemn incitement. We did. Your turn. If you are as neutral as you claim, this should be no trouble at all. The fact that you are hesitating is telling.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Freeman is causing incitement against the Jewish people by presenting blood libels. This forum is condoning his actions by permitting them to stand even after they have been demonstrated to be false. This is not only perpetuating the conflict -- its perpetuating a continuing evil against an entire people. If you don't stand up against it -- if you do nothing -- then you are permitting evil to triumph.

Good will triumph only when enough people -- the posters and the moderators on this board -- stand up against it. Let's shut down this vile antisemitism EVERY time it happens. Let's make sure that any time any poster writes a post with a blood libel, or an antisemitic trope that EVERY response is to call it out and condemn it.

I await your response to this and to the other two posts.

Inciting? Gaza fires rockets at Israel

Rabbi and group do not exist.

I've suggested adding prozac to the water supply

Maybe they would stop firing rocket and opt to just talk

Synthaholic, et al,

Yes, this is a very good question from a simple layered security and anti-terrorism measures. But "domestic" terrorism is very different from international terrorism.

• The Hostile Arab Palestinians (HoAP) are international terrorist. The HoAP have the goal of:

(∆) Intimidating and coercing a civilian population of Israel (Citizens of different Sovereignty);
(∆) HoAP Influencing Israeli Government Policy though HoAP Intimidation and coercion;
(∆) Affect the conduct of attacks originating from an external source;
​

• Jewish Terrorist are Domestic Terrorist (Threats originating from inside the Israeli controlled Territory).

(∆) Israelis attempting to intimidate and coerce the Arab Palestinian population inside Israel effective control or sovereignty;
(∆) Influencing Israeli Government Policy on the Arab-Palestinian Issues through intimidation or coercion;
(∆) Attempts to affect the conduct of the Israeli Government relative to matters of Arab Palestinian Policy, Settlement Issues, and Israeli-Arab Palestinian;
​

Where are all the "peaceful" Israelis speaking up against Radical Judaism?

(COMMENT)

Just as in many countries, there are different Law Enforcement agencies that have the proper jurisdiction and venue. Domestic Terrorism is a much different thing from international terrorism.

There is little question that the Israeli Government understand the importance of maintaining the law relative to the sources of domestic terrorism.

Most Respectfully,
R

Off topic deflection and derailment again because you have been proven to be a LIAR and an islamonazi propagandist spreading BLOOD LIBELS. Why wont the mods just ban you and be done with it, then the board will be qable to carry on in truth and reality.

Where are all the "peaceful" Israelis speaking up against Radical Judaism?

They are there if you look, and team Palestine posts links to them all the time. What I want to know is where are the muslims speaking out against extremist islam before the event, not the ones paying lip service after when they are threatened with reprisals, or condemn all extremism and name Christian and Jewish as examples ?
