Israel attacks the Nobel Prize Committee: "Goebbels is applauding from hell"

The Israeli Foreign Ministry sharply attacked the Nobel Peace Prize Committee after awarding the prize to Navi Pillay, whom Israel calls an "inciter" and a "promoter of genocide." The statement said that if there were a prize for lies, hatred, and blood libels, Pillay would be a leading candidate. The decision is described as the latest disgrace of the prize to legitimize hatred against Israel, while comparing the committee to Joseph Goebbels.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry issued a harsh statement against the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, following the decision to award the prize to Navi Pillay. The statement said: "If there were a prize for lies, hatred, and blood libels, Navi Pillay would not just be a candidate. She would be a leading candidate." It further stated that Pillay's role "in the constant and politically motivated incitement against Israel and the promotion of genocide speaks for itself." The Foreign Ministry claims that awarding the prize is not a recognition of justice, but rather "the latest disgrace of the prize to legitimize hatred and prejudice against Israel." The statement ends with a sharp comparison: "Now that the Nobel committee has rewarded the biggest lie of the 21st century, Joseph Goebbels is surely applauding from hell."
