Lt. Col. (res.) Maurice Hirsch

Lt. Col. (res.) Maurice Hirsch, a former IDF Director of Military Prosecution for Judea and Samaria, is a leading expert on Palestinian incitement and legal strategies. He currently serves as head of legal strategies at Palestinian Media Watch and directs the Initiative for Palestinian Authority Accountability and Reform at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. Hirsch has also advised Israel’s Ministry of Defense and chaired an advisory committee in the Ministry of Interior. A passionate advocate for Israel, he regularly provides expert analysis in the media to expose bias and misinformation.

The Palestinian Authority’s show of solidarity over Iranian attacks ignores Arafat’s alliance with Saddam and Kuwait’s mass expulsion of Palestinians.
The Security Council, which controls the procedure through which states are recognized, clearly acknowledged that no “State of Palestine” exists.
The Palestinian Authority has never indicted a Palestinian terrorist for the murder of Israelis or officially handed over a Palestinian terrorist to Israeli authorities.
If the international community is genuine in its desire to provide aid to Palestinians and not to further line the corrupt Palestinian Authority officials’ pockets, it should reconsider the manner in which the aid is provided.
The Palestinian leadership messaging through the wire service creates an unyielding environment of hatred and incitement.
“Palestine” would be a dictatorial, racist state that flouts basic human rights.
The 250-plus terrorist murderers Hamas is demanding to release in exchange for hostages are responsible for the deaths of more than 1,000 people, including U.S. citizens.
Before providing the P.A. with more funds, the E.U. should ask what happened to aid already received to promote democracy and reform.
Not only do these governments support the “extremist violence” of the Palestinians, they also fuel and fund it.
