«He who denies his responsibility for war crimes that he himself perpetrates against the Palestinians should not be surprised by others,» Zoabi said.
MK Haneen Zoabi (Joint List) has condemned the Polish parliament’s passage of a law banning references to Polish involvement in the Holocaust. But the controversial Balad party MK added that Israelis «should not be surprised» by the Polish move since, in her view, they deny responsibility for crimes against Palestinians. Zoabi said in a press statement Sunday that the Polish law, which passed the lower house Friday and is expected to be approved by the upper house, is a «Polish version» of Israel’s Nakba law, which authorizes the finance minister to cut state funding to an institution if it commemorates independence day as a day of mourning.
