Saeb Erekat, the secretary-general of the Palestine Liberation Organization, denounced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks claiming that the mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, persuaded Hitler to exterminate the Jews. 'Palestinian efforts against the Nazi regime are a deep-rooted part of our history,' Erekat said in a press release distributed to the media on Wednesday. 'Palestine will never forget – though it seems Netanyahu's extremist government has.'
