The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, revoked Mahmoud Abbas's honorary title after his recent statements where he provided a revisionist history of European Jews, Israel, and the Holocaust.

However, I view Hidalgo's move as too little too late.

Abbas's recent statements should not come as news to anyone curious enough to know about who Abbas really is. From his 1982 thesis "The Relationship Between Zionists and Nazis, 1933-1945" where he argued that the Zionist movement inflated the number of Jews murdered by the Nazis to gain sympathy, to his declaration that Jews have no right to desecrate Al Aqsa with their "filthy feet," to failing to condemn any of the terror attacks committed by Palestinian terrorists against innocent Israelis. Abbas has proven to spew antisemitic rhetoric for several decades and thus should never have received this honor in the first place.

To Hidalgo, I would say: "Thanks, but no thanks!"
