Israel slams UN secretary general for condemning 'Israeli occupation' | World Israel News: "The attacks on Israel by our neighbors did not begin in 1967, and any attempt at a moral equivalency between killing innocent people [by Palestinian terrorists] and the building of homes [by Israelis in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria] is absurd,” Danon charged.
“Instead of spreading Palestinian misinformation, it would be best if the UN stuck with the facts,” he demanded. “It is preposterous to blame terror and violence in the Middle East on the one true democracy in the region.”
To achieve piece, the solution is for “the Palestinian leadership to abandon terror, cease to incite against our people and finally return to direct negotiations,” Danon said. Only then “real progress can be made towards peace.”"

Rivlin criticizes Le Pen for denying French role in Holocaust | World Israel News
Rivlin criticizes Le Pen for denying French role in Holocaust | World Israel News: "Israel’s president contended that such arguments and statements amount to a form of contemporary denial of the Holocaust.
“The denial of responsibility of the crimes committed in the days of the Second World War is Holocaust denial of a new, more destructive and dangerous kind from that we have known until now,” Rivlin argued.
“This is a denial that seeks to annul the political and moral responsibility that must stand at the heart of memory of the Holocaust for generations to come,” he added. “We must wage a war against the current and dangerous wave of Holocaust denial.”
Rivlin claimed that while not explicitly denying the Holocaust, such statements from European politicians are essentially blurring the lines between victim and perpetrator. "
