The Telegraph reports that the UK Government has rebuked Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas over a speech he gave to the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO) parliament in Ramallah on Monday, which has been widely criticised for its antisemitic content. Abbas’s speech, which said that the Jewish “social function” in 20th century Europe, such as money lending, caused animosity towards them which led to the Nazi genocide of six million Jews, was described as “deeply concerning” and “deeply unhelpful to the cause of peace” in a Foreign and Commonwealth Office statement yesterday.

The Jewish Chronicle quotes BICOM CEO James Sorene in an article evaluating “how Israel stole Iran’s nuclear secrets”. On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that an operation by Mossad recovered a large cache of files from a warehouse storing information about the Iranian nuclear programme, which he claimed proves that Iran is not in compliance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Sorene said: “To remove so much physical material in such circumstances is nothing short of remarkable. When you consider it alongside Israel’s apparent ability to identify Iranian arms shipments to Syria as they leave Tehran, you can only conclude that the Iranian regime is severely compromised by the brilliance of Israeli intelligence.”
