IDF Hosts Summer Camp for Palestinian Children With Cancer
Fatah named a summer camp after a terrorist who led an attack that killed 37 Israelis, Palestinian Media Watch reported.
Among the victims of Dalal Mughrabi, namesake of the new Sisters of Dalal Mughrabi camp, were 12 children. Speaking to summer camp participants, the Governor of the Jericho district called Mughrabi a beacon for us in our activities.
Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Civil Administration hosted a three-day summer camp this month for children with cancer living in Palestinian Authority-controlled areas of the West Bank and Gaza. Activities included horseback riding and music, Israel National News reported.

The post above mine claimed, essentially, that Palestinian nationalism amounted to racism

So anyone who criticizes Israe's policy toward Palestinians is really just an "anti-semite"?
