Special Dispatch No. 4245—Syria/Conspiracy Theories/Tom Lantos Archives on Antisemitism and Holocaust Denial Documentation Project In an article titled "Syrian Blood for Matzas," posted on Sooryoon.net, which is close to Syrian Islamic opposition circles, Dr. Osama Al-Malouhi claimed that a public opinion poll conducted in Israel shows that 80% of Israelis support Bashar Al-Assad's remaining in power, and adds that Israel's support of Assad is the reason the world does not act against him. He goes on to state that this poll brings to mind the Jewish ritual murder to obtain blood for Passover matzas, recalls the 1840 Damascus blood libel, and says, "It may be that the Jews are reviving their heritage and religious rituals, and are taking pleasure in watching Syrian blood being spilled.

A Lebanese channel also aired an interview with Rachel and her daughter Julia [sic, apparently Guita], in which Rachel said that [Qadhafi's son] Sayf Al-Islam married the Israeli Jewish actress [Orly] Weinerman. In fact, [Israeli PM Binyamin] Netanyahu proudly announced that Israel had managed to plant a great spy from among its people [in an Arab state] so he could become the leader and president of [that] Arab state for over four decades...
