: The Iranian Foreign Ministry responded this morning (Thursday) to the storm of anti-Semitic statements by Abu Mazen and implicitly sided with the chairman of the Authority, who caused a stir earlier this week when he said that Israel had committed "50 holocausts".
"The hand of the Zionist entity is stained with genocide and war crimes and crimes against humanity. Western governments must support the rights of the Palestinian people instead of denying the actual facts," said Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani.
Kanani also claimed that he relies on "documents and international reports of human rights organizations". This is actually a report by the organization "Amnesty International" that was published in February and called on the International Court of Justice in The Hague to accuse Israel of apartheid as part of "possible war crimes" in rounds of fighting in the Strip Gaza.

The chairman of the Palestinian Authority issued a clarification yesterday to the storm caused by his words at a press conference in Germany with Chancellor Schulz. In the announcement he published, Abu Mazen stated that "the Holocaust is the most terrible crime that happened in modern human history." He emphasized that there was no intention in his words to deny the uniqueness of the Holocaust that was carried out in the previous century and that this is something that deserves the strongest condemnation. Regarding the crimes that the chairman of the authority spoke of, it was clarified that "it is important to understand, the massacres that have taken place against the Palestinian people since the days of the Nakba by the Israeli forces - are crimes that have not stopped to this day."
The clarification was published on behalf of Abu Mazen himself on the "Wafa" website - the official news agency of the Palestinian Authority, and not through his office as is customary in such cases.
