-

IN a recently unearthed 2014 tweet, BBC commentato­r Abdel Bari Atwan downplayed the significan­ce of the Holocaust.

“Abbas considers the Holocaust the greatest tragedy in modern history. We strongly disagree, viewing the Nakba of Palestine as the greater, more severe one,” he wrote on Twitter in Arabic.

And in 2021, the prominent anti-Zionist activist said Israelis ought to “start learning how to swim” because the Jewish state could be invaded at any moment.
