Israel-Hamas War: Queen Rania says antisemitism weaponised to stifle critics of Israel

• Queen Rania says antisemitism weaponised to stifle critics amid Israel-Hamas War.
• Rejecting the truce “endorsing and justifying” the deaths of people.
• A truce would give Hamas time to reorganize and launch another attack on Israel.

Jordan’s Queen Rania Al Abdullah has called for a truce in Gaza and claimed that antisemitism is being used as a weapon to stifle any criticism of Israel.

Speaking in an interview on Sunday, Rania stated, “What we’ve seen in recent years is the charge of antisemitism being weaponised in order to silence any criticism of Israel.”

Israel has imposed a full siege on Gaza, resulting in the deaths of about 1,000 Palestinians and the injuries of 32,000 civilians, including women and children since Hamas’ strike on October 7.

Speaking in favor of Palestinian life, Queen Rania asserted that having a pro-Palestine stance does not equate to having an anti-Semitic or pro-terrorism stance.

She said, “Let me be very, very clear. Being pro-Palestinian is not being antisemitic, being pro-Palestinian does not mean you’re pro-Hamas or pro-terrorism.”

“I want to absolutely and wholeheartedly condemn antisemitism and Islamophobia…but I also want to remind everyone that Israel does not represent all the Jewish people around the world. Israel is a state and is alone is responsible for its own crimes.”

Following US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s assertion that a truce would give Hamas time to reorganize and launch another attack on Israel, Rania made her remarks.

Blinken said these things on Saturday in Jordan during a summit when the Arab leaders demanded that the conflict stop right away.

According to Rania, Rejecting the truce “endorsing and justifying” the deaths of people.

She said, “I know that some who are against the ceasefire argue that it will help Hamas. However, I feel that in that argument, they are inherently dismissing the death, in fact, even endorsing and justifying the death of thousands of civilians, and that is just morally reprehensible.”
