This Is Rich: Now The Palestinians Are Being Condemned For Stealing ARAB Land

This is more than just a touch ironic--Sheikh Mohammed Rashid Qabbani, mufti of Lebanon, condemned Palestinians for stealing lands belonging to the state and the Islamic Wakf Trust:

The mufti of Lebanon, Sheikh Mohammed Rashid Qabbani, was quoted this week as saying that Palestinians are no longer welcome in his country.


He also condemned Palestinians as “trash” and said that he’s not afraid of their weapons

Sheikh Qabbani’s remarks were made during a meeting he held in his office in Beirut with a Palestinian delegation representing refugees and various Palestinian factions in Lebanon.

The furious mufti later kicked the Palestinian representatives out of his office.

More than 400,000 Palestinians live in Lebanon, most of them in extremely harsh conditions in refugee camps.

The meeting was called to discuss Palestinian “assaults” on state-owned and Islamic Wakf lands in Lebanon.

So let's see--according to the article, the Mufti:

• Told the Palestinian Arabs they were not welcome in Lebanon and should leave the country
• Called them abusive names
• Accused them of stealing Muslim land
• Told them: "You will never be victorious. Nor will your cause. I’m no longer afraid of your weapons.”
• Has a long history of instigating sectarian strife between various communities

Did you notice that this is exactly what the Arabs are doing and saying to the Jews?
That last item is paralleled by Abbas, who has consistently incited hatred of Israel in the West Bank.

Maybe this means the Palestinians really are the new Jews.
But would that then make the Lebanese the new Palestinians?
