Some people live on past glory;some in past pain.But Israel perpetually lives in’Final Solution’,Treblinka,Auschwitz,Bergen Belson,Riga still!Do not use past atrocities perpetrated on you as an excuse for you to perpetrate the same genocide on hapless Palestinians.More than Pakistan or Iran, N Korea ,Israel is vying for honors as the Rogue State.Keep in mind the sympathy generated by concentration camps do not turn into anger by the world community.By your acts you seem to justify Hitler’s stand against Jews.Which is the real Israel,a community that was wronged grievously or the marauding killers on the lines of Palmach,Irgun and Haganna?
Story.
This will count. A flotilla of relief boats attacked in international waters. Armed commandos boarding a vessel carrying supplies for a besieged civilian population. More than 10 peace activists reported killed. This has to be made to count.
The dead have joined Rachel Corrie, Tom Hurndall and James Miller in giving up their lives for the Palestinians. None of these young men and women went out to die or wanted to die or was accepting of death. Each and every one of them ultimately believed that they were safe; that there was a boundary – call it a boundary of legality, a boundary of civilisation – that Israel would not cross. They were wrong. And in proving them wrong, Israel has revealed, once again, its true face to the world.
This face, of course, the Palestinians know well. They see it every day in the teenage soldiers of the occupation chewing gum as they dish out humiliations, in the settlers shooting young Palestinians with impunity, in the soldiers firing gas canisters at the heads of demonstrators. The world saw that face in January last year when Israel unleashed the might of its air force on Gaza – the only time in modern warfare that a civilian population was sealed in as it was being bombed and shelled. Now Israel is out on the high seas killing internationals.
