SFSU Prof Rabab Abdulhadi’s Advice for Palestinians? ‘Continue What They Are Doing: Resistance’

“Experts” cited by Turkey’s state-run Anadolu Agency are labeling President Trump’s forthcoming Arab-Israeli peace deal a “hoax.”

Among them is San Francisco State University professor and anti-Israel fanatic Rabab Abdulhadi, who dubs the deal a “a pro-Israel colonial plan” and the Trump administration, “pro-Israel, pro-racism, and pro-Islamophobia.” Unless an ever-growing list of untenable Palestinian demands is met, Abdulhadi warns, “there will never be peace.” She concludes with this helpful advice: “To confront this scheme, the Palestinians have to continue what they are doing: resistance.”

In other words, business as usual, both in the Middle East and in Middle East studies.
