We hear Hanan Ashwari, the first woman elected to the PLO governing council, who also served as its spokesperson for several years. She also has served in the Palestinian parliament. Here she is delivering a keynote address to the annual conference of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs. Before that, we discuss the Jewish establishment's knee jerk attack on Amnesty International's Apartheid report.They use language right out of the Israeli Hasbara talking points catalogue. They parrot words like antisemitic, fraudulent, or biased. But we have yet to see one critic to show he or she has even read the report. They fail to identify anything they find to be antisemitic, inaccurate, fraudulent, or unfairly biased.
