Seraj Assi and Zachary Foster writing in Ha’aretz:
Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich delivered a speech in Paris this week denying the existence of Palestinians as a people, claiming: “There is no such thing as a Palestinian nation. There is no Palestinian history. There is no Palestinian language.”
Smotrich spoke at a lectern draped with an image showing a map of Israel that included the occupied West Bank, Gaza and Jordan.
