UAE Princess who campaigns against online hate accuses Jews of leveraging Holocaust for sympathy and compares Israel to Nazis
An Emirati Princess has accused Jews of leveraging the Holocaust for sympathy.
Princess Hend bint Faisal Al-Qasimi recently tweeted: “6,636,235 Jews were killed in WW2, killed in Europe. At least 12.5M Muslims died in wars in past 25 years. You never hear a Muslim writing books, movies, starts a law that if you don’t sympathise with our plight you are less of a human. We forgive & move on.”
The Princess, a royal from the Al-Qasimi family that rules Sharjah, the third-largest city in the United Arab Emirates, has over half a million followers on Twitter.
She has also tweeted that “the media that is controlled by you know you”, and elsewhere: “We’ve all cried at what the Nazis have done to the Jews in Germany. Yet, it’s funny how the very same Jewish Zionists don’t cry at the EXACT SAME thing that they are doing to the Palestinians. Take their homes if they don’t leave, terrorize them & bomb it. The dead don’t speak.”
In yet another tweet, she asked “Are Zionists making Jews look like the new Nazis?”
According to the International Definition of Antisemitism, “Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.”
The Princess serves as the editor of a lifestyle magazine and became prominent campaigning against anti-Muslim hatred online.
