Israel is using the photo to imply that Palestinians are Nazis andf more specifically, that Israel has a right to demolish the Shepherd Hotel. Israel's position is that they have a right to demolish the Shepherd Hotel because it was once owned by the Mufti, who was buddy-buddy with Hitler.
But this is a dangerous allusion to engage in!
Here is a photo of Hitler with Britain's Neville Chamberlain. Does this photo give Israel the right to demolish Parliament?
Here is a photo of Hitler with the head of IBM. Does this photo give Israel the right to demolish IBM?
Here is a photo of a group of young Jews from Betar ... wearing Nazi uniforms. Does this photo give Israel the right to kill ... Jews?
Does this next photo make Richard Nixon a rock star? Or Elvis a lying crook? No?
Even for Israel, using that Hitler picture is pretty damned low.
