Is There A Word for Bullsh*t in Arabic?

"Israel is lighting matches in hopes of igniting a big fire," said [senior Palestinian Authority negotiator Saeb] Erekat during a press conference.

He claimed Israel was attempting "to strengthen its hold on occupied Jerusalem" rather than keep the peace.


And more:

A senior Palestinian official on Tuesday accused Israel of deliberately creating "an extremely dangerous situation" in East Jerusalem, to trigger violence, justify a crackdown and tighten its grip on the disputed city.

"Israel is lighting matches in the hope of sparking a fire, deliberately escalating tensions in occupied East Jerusalem rather than taking steps to placate the situation," chief peace negotiator Saeb Erekat said...


And more piled higher and deeper:

Fatah central committee member Muhammad Dahlan...in a statement sent from Cairo..,accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of furthering attempts to take Jerusalem away from Palestinians, in the face of ongoing peace efforts.

“Netanyahu wants this escalation in Jerusalem in order to avoid the resumption of negotiations which might compel him to withdraw to the 1967 borders,” he said.


And the counter:-

Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat said Tuesday that Muslims should respect the Jewish holidays. “We passed the Ramadan in a quiet fashion that enabled the entire Muslim public to mark it,” he said. “Now we are in the Tishrei holidays and the Muslims must allow the Jews to mark their holiday.”

"We must set aside the attempts to carry out provocations in the city and let the police take care of them,” he added
.

More:
