1. False rumors and accusations that Jews would murder Christian children and steal their blood to make Matzot for passover.

2. A term Sarah Palin misused to describe the criticism about her violent and self serving political rhetoric to defend her cause to take over the world. It also allowed Palin to paint herself as a victim so she could gain sympathy while secretly continuing on her agenda of attempting to get her opponents assassinated (Julian Assange, Gabrielle Giffords, Governor Frank Murkowski).

a false allegation of murder; the term refers specifically to a recurring rumor from 12th century Europe that Jews were kidnapping Christian children and using their blood for ritual purposes. A famous example of the blood libel is recounted in the "Nun Prioress's Tale" from Chaucer's *Canterbury Tales*. In this and other versions of the story, the events are absurd and feature perverse miracles.

Frequently occurrences of the blood libel were accompanied by a wave of mass murder of Jewish residents of the city. In many cases, the zealots would force the authorities to try random Jews for the alleged crime; these trials were, naturally, travesties.

The last case of a blood libel resulting in murder was the Kielce pogrom of 1946. 200 Jewish survivors of the Final Solution were being transported back to Poland when a boy (who had disappeared for a couple of days) told the police he had been kidnapped by Jews. The police went to a hostel where returning Holocaust survivors were staying, and massacred 37 of them.

Sometimes the phrase "blood libel" is used to refer to similar allegations against primarily non-Jewish groups; for example, many nationalities have been accused of kidnapping children to harvest their organs and sell them to rich patients in the developed world.
Although the details have changed over the last millenium, the blood libel retains core elements of sadistic fantasy, psychological projection, and crass opportunism.

A phrase, the incorrect use of which, proves Sarah Palin is a complete idiot.

n. Another word for which Sarah Palin created her own definition and then misused in an attempt to deflect attention from the fact that intelligent, rational people recognize her for being the cosmically-idiotic, hypocritically self-righteous, narcissitic, attention-whoring asshat that she is.
In her most recent gaffe-filled speech, Sarah Palin said, "But, especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence they purport to condemn." <<<Not surprisingly, the Palin was too ignorant to realize that blood libel is an excuse used by anti-semites to murder millions of Jews during the last eight centuries.
