Mehbooba Mufti Condemns Netanyahu, Labels Him as 'Biggest Terrorist After Hitler'

PDP President Mehbooba Mufti criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling him the 'biggest terrorist after Adolf Hitler' and accusing him of turning Palestine and Lebanon into 'gas chambers'. She condemned the government's ties with Netanyahu and criticized the BJP's stance on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

PDP President Mehbooba Mufti on Monday accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being the 'biggest terrorist after Adolf Hitler', alleging that he has transformed Palestine and Lebanon into 'gas chambers'.

Mufti's remarks came after condemning the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Israeli airstrikes, leading her to cancel her election campaign for a day to show solidarity with the people of Lebanon and Palestine. 'The International Criminal Court has ruled against Netanyahu, proving him to be a criminal who has killed thousands in Palestine and is now committing similar acts in Lebanon,' she told PTI Videos. 'No condemnation is enough,' she added.

Mufti criticized the government's decision to maintain relations with Netanyahu's administration, arguing that it goes against India's historical support for Palestine dating back to Mahatma Gandhi. She condemned the provision of weapons and drones being used in the conflict. Responding to BJP's criticism of her tweet calling Nasrallah a martyr, Mufti accused the party of backing the rapists of an eight-year-old girl in Kathua and highlighted the widespread support for Nasrallah in India.
