Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu takes part in propaganda campaign to defame the Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in the West, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported on Thursday.


After the failure of the Palestinian-Israeli peace talks, brokered by the United States, Israel, which reneged on its obligation to release Palestinian veteran prisoners, wants to convince the West that Abbas is not a peace partner.

The newspaper said: “In light of recent events, Israel’s publicity machine intends to blacken Abbas’ name on the international stage, even including announcements in Western media outlets trying to link Abbas to Osama bin Laden.”

Yedioth Ahronoth continued: “The aim is to prove to the world that Abbas is not a partner for peace, who prefers unity with an Islamist terrorist organization to reaching an agreement with Israel.”

Netanyahu took part in the campaign as he posted on his facebook page a picture linking Abbas to Osama bin-Laden through the Palestinian Prime Minister in Gaza Ismail Haniyeh.

It said that Haniyeh denounced the killing of Bin-Laden and Abbas has recently signed an agreement with Haniyeh.
