Israel terrorizes Palestinians with super rats

[additional-authors]
July 24, 2008

Israel’s stripper assassins must have been a treat compared to the Jewish state’s new weapon against Palestinians.

See the Jew is much more insidious in his choice of weapon. Palestinian militants and martyrs make Qassam rockets or strap bombs to their chests or hijack bulldozers. Jews poison the well and engineer supernatural rats with supernatural powers and a supernatural hatred for non-Jews.

A ridiculous claim, of course, but that didn’t prevent it from being reported last week by two Palestinian Authority papers, one directly controlled by Mahmoud Abbas’ office. From Palestinian Media Watch, via Yid with Lid.

According to the PA papers, the Israeli-Jerusalem rat is:

1. Immune to rat poison;

2. Aggressive and larger than usual;

3. Unafraid of cats and able to scare them away;

4. Highly fertile—female rat gives birth to 140 babies a year, four times the normal average;

5. Highly selective—Jewish residents of Jerusalem apparently are not affected by these rats.

Israel’s goal, the libelous PA articles accuse, is “to turn the residents’ life into a living hell, forcing them to leave.” Interestingly, the articles do not mention how the rats are trained to differentiate between Jewish and Arab residents of Jerusalem.

You can’t make this stuff up. At least, I couldn’t. Does anybody think this actually helps the peace process? Then again, political expediency has never been the forte of Arabs or Israelis.

The newspaper reports are after the jump:
