Unmasked Survey of PA Media reveals disturbing Anti-Semitic Content and Nazi Comparisons

A devastating new analysis of the Palestinian Authority’s flagship daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida from January 2022 to August 2025 lays bare the poisonous reality Israel has warned about for decades: the PA’s own mouthpiece is a factory of raw antisemitism, Holocaust inversion, and blanket rejection of any agreement with the Jewish state, proving once again that terrorist brainwashing and anti-Israel propaganda pumped into Palestinians from childhood has created a society that cannot stomach peace. Conducted by the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI), the systematic study of hundreds of op-eds and articles in the PA’s official organ, essentially its government propaganda arm, delivers numbers that should kill any fantasy of a reformed PA taking over Gaza tomorrow.

Key findings are chilling:

On Hamas, the tone shifted temporarily: before October 7, 82% of articles branded the terror group illegitimate, tied to Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood. In the immediate aftermath of the massacre, criticism softened, 67% of pieces were neutral, 11% even “somewhat positive” under the guise of “national unity.” But once the first ceasefire kicked in, the knives came out again: 76% of articles again declared Hamas illegitimate, with 47.5% “very negative.” Crucially, even when the PA condemned October 7, it was not for the rape, murder, and burning of 1,200 Jews, it was because the attack “gave Israel an excuse” to defend itself and made ordinary Palestinians pay the price.

When it comes to peace with Israel, the numbers are apocalyptic: 62% of articles rejected any agreement, with 44% “very negative,” painting Israel as an irredeemable colonial entity incapable of honest negotiation. Only 30% showed any openness to a deal.

Researchers Yaakov Katz, Shlomi Breznitz, and Eli Kanai summed it up bluntly: “The newspaper examined is essentially the PA’s mouthpiece. It preserves a hostile line toward Israel and Zionism, and is tainted with blatant antisemitism. The sharp criticism of Hamas stems from rejection of political Islam as part of the power struggle over the Palestinian people.”

These findings arrive just as the world toys with handing Gaza to a “revitalized” PA. Yet the same regime that pays terrorists salaries, names streets after baby-killers, and teaches kindergarteners that Jaffa and Haifa are “occupied Palestine” still spews Nazi comparisons and Jewish-conspiracy theories in its daily paper. This is the fruit of decades of terrorist brainwashing in classrooms, summer camps, and mosques, an entire society marinated in the lie that Jews are alien thieves who must be expelled by any means. No border tweak, no reform commission, no French-drafted constitution can wash that poison out overnight. Israelis know it: separate polls show 79% of Jewish Israelis now reject a Palestinian state on any lines, with 70% overall opposed. The PA’s own words prove Israel’s skepticism is not paranoia, it’s survival instinct.
