Israeli Terrorism in Palestine

Israeli Terrorism in Palestine

Colonialism and imperialism employ military genocides to terrorize the nations now under their yoke and Israel, USA and India top the list of aggressors. Fascist Israel, like India, pursues a anti-Islamic terrorist policy and keeps killing the innocent Palestinians with a view to silencing them in their efforts to get back their lost nation now under Israeli custody with support from US-led western powers. Over 300 Palestinians have been killed in two days of Israeli terror attacks in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

Yes, Israel plays tricks with the UN and UNSC and fools the USA and Arab world that are seen busy finding a lasting solution for Palestine with the re-
creation of their own state. Israeli state warlords are killing the innocent
Palestinians. After letting the truce collapsing, Israel began official blockage of Gaza and on 27 Dec killed Palestinians almost en-masse. At least 227 people were killed during coordinated Israeli attacks on Hamas police compounds in the Gaza Strip on the same day. More than 700 people were injured, including children, as Israeli warplanes and combat helicopters fired at least 30 missiles on the security installations which were reduced to rubble.

With a view to cushion the international outcry over Israeli terrorism in Palestine, Tel Aviv insists F-16 bombers struck since a truce with Hamas militants expired. Emboldened by support form US-led Western terror powers, Israel believes in direct killing of Palestinians. The Israeli terror attacks followed a decision by Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's security cabinet to widen reprisals for “cross-border” Palestinian rocket attacks on Israel. He had warned Hamas to stop firing rockets or pay a heavy price. Israel eased a blockade of the Strip bowing to international pressure to reopen border crossings. Israel withdrew its forces and settlers from Gaza in 2005 and Olmert has said he does not wish to re-occupy the coastal strip. Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni discussed the crisis last week with President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, which borders Gaza to the west and which brokered the truce in June. Mubarak urged restraint on both sides.

Emboldened by the continued support from global state terrorists like the USA, the Israeli military confirmed they had conducted strikes, saying they targeted "terrorist infrastructure". An Israeli military spokeswoman said Hamas leaders could be attacked as part of the offensive. Major Avital Leibovitch, said: "Anything belonging to Hamas could be a target. You can interpret that as you like." The attacks took place as youngsters left school for the day and television pictures from one compound showed uniformed bodies lying in a pile as those wounded writhed in pain. Rescuers carried bodies showing signs of life to cars and ambulances, while others tried to revive the unconscious. One of the police stations had been hosting a graduation ceremony at the time of the attacks. Gaza police Chief Tawfiq Jabber is among those killed in the raids which took just minutes and left columns of thick black smoke billowing across the area. There were more casualties in Khan Younis, a refugee camp in the south.


Perhaps as a courtesy or a mere formality, the UK & US have urged Israel to avoid civilian casualties and said Hamas must stop rocket attacks into Israel for the violence to cease. However, the White House did not call for an end to the air strikes. That is US-Israel strategy in Palestine.


Arab Anger & Economics

As it was only expected, the U.S. administration has said Palestinian militant group Hamas was responsible for the renewal of violence in Gaza. For Arabs it is as usual business as they dont want to risk business profits by quarelling wiht anti-Islamic naitons like Israel. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) said the ministers discussed the Israeli raids at a meeting ahead of the summit. "We hope there will be reasonable voices from the international community to pressure Israel to stop its brutal aggression," said UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed al-Nahayan. Gulf Arab rulers gathering on 29 Dec in Muscat are still expected to approve a long-planned pact to take them closer to issuing a single currency. "I don't think the agenda will be derailed," Abdulmalik al-Hinai, undersecretary at Oman's Economy Ministry, told Reuters.

The head of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which groups Washington's regional allies, described the Israeli attacks as "barbaric," and Saudi Arabia urged the United States to intervene to end the strikes. The GCC is a loose political and economic alliance of six oil-producing countries -- Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait. Israel's air strikes on Gaza will not derail Gulf Arab leaders' plans to sign monetary union pacts at a summit but the issue will share the spotlight at their discussions, Omani hosts said on 28 December. "The issue (Gaza) will impose itself on the agenda. The events of yesterday will have their deserved place in the discussions," Information Minister Hamad al-Rashdi told Reuters.

Gulf States have been discussing monetary union for decades but only set the 2010 deadline for a single currency in 2001. Gulf States have yet to reach a deal on how to distribute customs revenues, an issue that should be resolved by the end of next year following a consultancy study. Gulf States had yet to agree on where the joint central bank would be located, which could be decided soon, Hinai said. "At least three of them want it," he said. "They will discuss the monetary union and issue the agreement of the monetary union and the basic law of the monetary council." Mohamed al-Mazrooei, a top GCC economic official, said the UAE, Qatar and Bahrain have submitted proposals to host the bank, while Saudi Arabia has expressed its interest. Deciding on the location is one of the political obstacles that have derailed the single currency plan for years.

Global economic concerns are also expected to weigh on the meeting. Oil prices have collapsed to about a quarter of their peak in July, putting an end to the Gulf region's economic boom. The credit crunch is derailing expansion projects and Gulf Arab bourses have tumbled sharply. Rulers would also discuss a proposal to extend by a year the time period to implement a regional customs union. Also on the agenda are talks over the progress of their common market, global free trade agreements, a proposed regional water grid, how to further economic cooperation with Yemen and a regional economic and social development plan.

Post-Script

Israeli terrorism in Palestine has to end and Palestine state has to come into being. But the PLO suspremo and Fatah leader Abbas does not seem to be in a hurry to take steps to bring Hamas and Fatah together and put in place a unity government possibly because he has no permission from US-Israel combine for that. There is hardly any doubt that the economic interests of Arab nations are harming the genuine interests of the Palestinians and Abbas is happy visiting Washington as often as possible meeting several world leaders, including Arabs. The net result is mass murders of the Palestinians by fascist Israelis. If the trend continues like this a Palestine state would remian a mirage.

As far as I am concerned, America is killing the Palestinian children. You can be certain that IF there is any outside intervention it will NOT be coming from the United States of Zion.

"The Prophet peace be upon him said: 'The nations shall gather and team up against you (i.e., Muslims) as the predators gather and team up against their preys. A questioner asked: 'Is it because of us being low in numbers at that day?' The Prophet replied: 'No, you that day shall be in great numbers, but you will be as powerless as the foam of the water on the surface of the river, and Allah shall remove any fear from your enemies toward you, and He shall put in your hearts a corruption.' A questioner asked: 'O Apostle of Allah, what is the corruption?' The Prophet replied: 'The love of life's amusements and the fear of death.' (Translation of Sunan Abu Dawud, The Book of Fierce Battles - The Gathering of all Nations against Islam, Book 37, Number 4297)"

Zionist terrorism against Gaza:

Endless pain for Gaza burn victims
Marc Lourdes
Jan 25, 2009

MORE than a week after the ceasefire, the victims of white phosphorus attacks were still writhing in pain and agony.
The Al-Sifa Hospital Burn Unit is filled with victims, mostly women, who have been scorched by the chemical.

One of them is 16-year-old Samin El-Manayah.

While most girls her age elsewhere in the world are worrying about boys, acne and exams, Samin has to deal with an excruciating pain after being doused in white phosphorus, as well as the knowledge that the long-term effects are going to be even worse.

The first white phosphorus victim to be admitted into the hospital's burn unit, Samin is still too traumatised to talk about her experience.
Even the presence of her mother and baby sister next to her bed fails to perk her up.

Worse still is that Samin, whose lower body has been burnt, rejects attempts by doctors to give her medical treatment, due to her trauma.

She just lies in bed, her face coated in a sheen of sweat as she tries to fight off the pain.

Another victim is Sabah Abou Halimah from the village of Beit Lahiya outside Gaza.

The 45-year-old mother of 10 lost three of her sons and her only daughter, aged between 14 and 3 months, to white phosphorus burns in an attack on Jan 4. Her husband was also killed in the incident.

She sustained severe burns on the hands, legs, neck and back. More than three weeks after the incident, the wounds are still oozing with puss, bloody and raw.

Next to Sabah lies 53-year-old Saadiah Azam, also wounded by the same chemical.

A rocket, laced with white phosphorus had fired into her home and burnt both her hands. While the burns on the right hand only took off her skin, her left hand was burnt to the bone.

Several skin grafts have alleviated the injuries on her right hand, but her left one is still swathed in bandages weeks after the wounds were sustained.

Staff at the hospital are worried about her condition and that of others who were brought in with similar injuries.

"We are giving them whatever medicine we can, but it's not enough.

"Until today, there is no medicine available to treat white phosphorus wounds and the only thing we can do is give them treatment for normal burns," said staff nurse Sharif Akhtar.

"This is the first time we are seeing anything like this."
