The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA’s) 54th General Conference of Member States concluded yesterday, Friday September 24 2010, in Vienna. The member states of the (IAEA) voted on a draft resolution introduced by the Arab States calling for Israel to join the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). The United States and its major allies, the European States and some small western countries, who called for a Middle East free from “weapons of mass destruction”, allied themselves over the past three days by holding continuous meetings and gatherings outside the hall where the 54 IAEA General Conference was held at the UN headquarters in Vienna, in order to thwart the resolution introduced by the Arab States. Forty-six delegations voted in favor of the resolution, 51 against it and 23 others abstained from voting in the 151-member General Assembly of the IAEA. Click on the picture to see it bigger.

Last year 2009 the IAEA General Conference approved a similar resolution expressing concern at Israel’s nuclear capabilities. This year, many small countries, some in Latin America such as Costa Rica, Panama, Haiti, and others from the northern Europe, like Latvia, which had been absent from the meeting of 2009, also voted. Russia and China supported the resolution, which refers to the differences between the major powers on this issue.

The Arab representatives and ambassadors all said that Israel’s presumed nuclear arsenal threatens regional peace and stability. The Jewish state is the region’s only country outside the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

The scene of the political gatherings held by the Europeans and their allies outside of the main conferenced in order to support Israel and thwart the Arab draft resolution confirms that there is a deep chasm between the West and the Middle East and it also showed the double standards implicit in the decisions of the block of Western countries when dealing with the issue of nuclear weapons in Israel, North Korea and Iran. Israel, which possesses a nuclear arsenal, pursues a policy of “nuclear ambiguity” and refuses to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty which could force them to renounce nuclear weapons.

The United States urged other states members of the IAEA to vote down the Arab-sponsored draft resolution. “Symbolically it is important to vote down this non-binding resolution” said the US representative to the IAEA, claiming that the vote in favor of the resolution “could disrupt a broader effort to ban such weapons in the Middle East” and sends a negative message to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, which recently resumed. This “peace process” is merely one more show in the theater which legitimizes the israeli genocide and war crimes in Palestine and lengthens the occupation under sham “peace negotiations”.

The countries which voted in favor of the draft resolution introduced by Arab countries were: Afghanistan, Algeria, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belarus, China, Cuba, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Myanmar, Namibia, Nicaragua, Oman, Pakistan, Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Syria, Tajikistan, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela, Vietnam, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe.

The countries which voted against the draft were: Albania, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Haiti, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Marshall Islands, Monaco, Montenegro, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Palau, Panama, Poland, Portugal, Moldova, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Macedonia, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States.

The abstaining countries were: Angola, Argentina, Bosnia, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chile, Colombia, Ghana, Holy See, India, Kenya, Lesotho, Mauritius, Mexico, Mongolia, Niger, Nigeria, Peru, Singapore, Thailand, Tanzania, Uruguay.

According to my sources, several smaller countries which are effectively colonies of the USA, were pressured by the USA “with monetary incentives” to vote against the adoption of the resolution introduced by the Arab countries.

After the draft introduced by the Arab countries was voted down, I asked a lady from one of the European delegations to comment on the the contradictory behavior of these countries which at once wanted “a middle-east free of nuclear weapons”, but at the same time rejected a resolution which would have had exactly that effect. This lady was obviously shocked that anybody could ask such a thing and she did not answer. More even, the IAEA press office spoke to me later, telling me that “my question had made its way around” and that the Europeans did not like my questions. He asked me which were my questions. I told him that I had just asked one question “the lady there” (pointing at her) about her comment on vote.

The more serious question which arises after the vote on this resolution is if Israel will at some time in the future use its nuclear weapons to attack the same European states which rejected the Arab-sponsored draft resolution calling on Israel to join the NPT last Friday. Asking this question, even thinking about it, is taboo for the regimes of the European Union and the western world, which are all led by pro-zionist politicians who often have double nationality and who obviously always adopt decisions of foreign policy concerning Israel which are favorable to israel but are gravely detrimental to the obvious interests of the countries which these politicians represent.

Israel, which in public speaks sweet and honey words to its European “allies”, at the same time teaches israeli children in kindergarten, primaries and later to hate and and seek revenge from Europe, where the “descendants of the Nazis” live, according to the language used school texts in Israel. Children are taught in one way or another to seek revenge from the European countries, and revenge this is only matter of time for Israel. Anybody who denies this should spend some days at the Israeli schools and watch the movies which the kids see in their childhood, which teach them that the whole world should “kneel before the feet of the Jews”, and generally speak with the people on the streets, letting them speak freely about their views about Europe.

Not only do children in israel learn to seek revenge against European nations since childhood, but there have already been open threats of nuclear attacks against “European Capitals” by a renowned israeli professor. In 2003, Martin van Creveld, a military theorist from israel, said during an interview with a hollandese journal: “… We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force.”

On the other hand, the General Conference ended by adopting resolutions to guide the Agency´s work in the coming year.

• Programme and Budget for 2011.
• Measures to Strengthen International Cooperation in Nuclear, Radiation, Transportation and Waste Safety.
• Nuclear Security, including Measures to Protect Against Nuclear and Radiological Terrorism.
• Strengthening the Agency´s Technical Cooperation Activities.
• Strengthening the Agency´s Activities Related to Nuclear Science, Technology and Applications.
• Strengthening the Effectiveness and Improving the Efficiency of the Safeguards System and Application of the Model Additional Protocol.
• Implementation of the NPT safeguards Agreement Between the Agency and the Democratic People´s Republic of Korea; and Application of IAEA Safeguards in the Middle East.

A Policeman And a Terrorist

David “Dudi” Cohen “דודי (דוד) כהן”. Current, as of 2010, he is police Inspector-General.

“Dudi” was accused in Israel of “damaging the rule of Israeli State laws”.

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

David “Dudi” Cohen is the son of a terrorist from the Palmach “underground militia”. He is a war criminal complicit in genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity against Palestinians. He was born in 1955, from extremist parents who belonged to the genocidal Chabad cult. His father was Bulgarian, his mother from Greece. His now deceased father was a Palmach terrorist and later IDF navy “marine” war criminal who resided on stolen Palestinian land. He served as police patrolman for 35 years until his retirement.

Dudi grew up in a poor family living in two small rooms, where he shared one room with a sister and a brother according to his own account published in Hebrew.

Cohen grew up in Haifa. His family moved from Haifa city to live in the neighborhood of “Batei Goldstein”, another jewish occupation name for the area also called “Harlem” at the edge of Pardes Katz. It is a jewish neighborhood were many fanatics from the Chabad cult live. The neighborhood was built on the ruins of the Palestinian villages, and the jews who now reside in the neighborhood continue spreading hate and incitement against the original Arab owners and Arab-Israel citizens, calling to end their residence in their homeland. A statement was issued by the zionist rabbis Aharon Leib Steinman, Shmuel Halevi Wosner, Michael Yehuda Lefkovich and Moshe Yehuda Landau in which they call for not renting apartments to Arabs in Pardes Katz and stated that this is “entirely forbidden”.

The Police car which drove over Mohammed al-Kunbar (14 years) from Jerusalem

Under the command of Cohen, criminals and murderers have become heroes of the Israeli police. Police officer Shahar Mizrahi killed in cold blood Palestinian civilian Mahmoud Ganaim “a person suspected of stealing car”. Ganaim was not threatening the officer’s life. The criminal officer received full support from Cohen.

On Wednesday 18 August 2010 police personnel under command of Cohen presented themselves as a TV news crew in order to arrest Nadim Inzaj.

Inzaj is a Palestinian collaborator, had broken into the garden of the British Embassy in Tel Aviv seeking asylum after police staff had infiltrated him to spy on Palestinians, and then involved him in drug issues in order to get rid of him after he had ceased to be useful.

On March 13 2010, staff under the command of Cohen drove their car over a child, Mohammed al-Kunbar (14 years) from Jerusalem; they drove twice over his body and left him one hour bleeding in the street, then they arrested him. At the Police station, Cohen’s interrogators threatened to retaliate against the family of the the child if he told them about the car that ran over him. Cohen’s staff then denied the incident until a photographer released the photos of this horrible crime.

The victim of Cohen's staff, Mohammed al-Kunbar (14 years) from Jerusalem

David Cohen is an IDF also an officer of the IDF paratrooper, where as a captain he became complicit to genocide and war crime in the occupied Palestine until 1977.

He has served in the Israel police since 1977 and has held various positions.

Beginning in 1977 he served in the “Yarkon” police station, later and he served in Herzliya and Tel Aviv as a police station commander.

He served as chief police commander of Al-Naqab (Negev).

He was a deputy head of military intelligence and chief of execution “operations”. This means that he was involved in murdering Palestinian civilians in “extra-judicial executions”.

In 2005 Cohen was appointed commander of the so-called “Southern District” at the office of the Central District commander, the war criminal and zionist Gen. Ilan Biran, and also under command of Gen. Uzi Dayan. There he served as head of the investigations intelligence. This means that he was involved directly and as a commanding officer in all the IDF operations of theft, murder, executions, jailing of Palestinians after that date.

He was also in command of the intelligence interrogation units were all Palestinian prisoners are tortured, beaten, sexually abused and often murdered. In this capacity he was directly involved in violations of the international laws and treaties related to prisoners treatments and rights. He invented a new method of interrogated called “secret jails” were the prisoners were interrogated for days and nights while blinded, cuffed and torture by people calling themselves “Abu Allah” what means “father of god”.

Cohen was appointed commander of the Central District in the West Bank, where all kind of crimes and horrors were committed against Palestinians.

On April 11 2007 and under former Israeli Minister of Internal Security Avi Dichter, (head of the Shin Bet, intelligence), Cohen was appointed as the 16th police commissioner of the Israel Police. The Israel Police Insp. Gen. serves a four-year term. His appointment was approved by the advisory committee on senior civil service appointments chaired by retired israeli judge Yaakov Terkel. (Avi Dichter and David (Dudi) Cohen worked together in intelligence).

Under his command, several Palestinians neighborhoods in Jerusalem were ethnically cleansed from Palestinians and replaced with jewish families from the USA and Europe. Theft of Palestinian property, demolitions, confiscation of IDs increased massively. Four Palestinian Parliamentarians from the Jerusalem district lost their ID and thus their “right” to enter the city.

Staff under Cohen was and is involved in spreading drugs like Heroine, marijuana, Cocaine and others among Palestinian neighborhoods in Jerusalem as one more method to further genocide of Palestinians. Also, hundreds of children were jailed and interrogated at the Al-Moscobiyyah police detention center in Jerusalem under his command.

Several criminal complaints have been lodged against Cohen with the courts in Israel. These complaints were filed by human rights organizations, Palestinians from Jerusalem, Arab Israelis, jews and the former Southern Police District head Uri Bar-Lev, (another war criminal). Uri Bar-Lev filed a complaint against Cohen after he fired him for “unjustified reasons” according to Bar-Lev. (Both Cohen and Bar-Lev are war criminal).

Cohen established a new covert death squad unit of the border police in order to capture or kill children in Jerusalem. In the languge of Cohen: “I diverted Border Police companies and high-quality units (meaning death squad gangs) from dealing with terrorism”.

On Monday August 23 2010, Cohen recommended that the Tel Aviv state prosecutors indict corrupt former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert for receiving bribes to promote real estate complexes in the occupied Jerusalem, as it announced the conclusion of its bribery investigation Monday.

Cohen, his wife and two children live in Givatayim east of Tel Aviv.

On December 6 2008, a criminal complaint for participation in genocide was lodged against David (Dudi) Cohen with the German authorities. The text follows.

BETRIFFT: Azeige gegen DUDI COHEN / DAVID COHEN im Sinne des Völkerstrafgesetzbuchs

GEFAHR IM VERZUG – FLUCHTGEFAHR – VERABREDUNGSGEFAHR

DUDI COHEN, auch bekannt als DAVID COHEN, ist seit 1. Mai 2007 Generalinspektor der Polizei des Staates Israel. Er befindet sich, wie ich aus den Medien erfahren habe, im Rahmen von Amtsgeschäften als Gast der Deutschen Regierung IN DEUTSCHLAND auf, um eine Kooperation zwischen der Israelischen und der Deutschen Polizei in Leben zu rufen.
Bezugnehmend auf die in den Medien bekanntgewordenen Pogrome von Jüdischen Kolonisten in der Westbank gegen die Palästinensische Bevölkerung, werfe ich COHEN vor:

a) Seine Aufsichtspflicht gegenüber ihm Befehlsmäßig unterstellten Einheiten grob vernachlässigt haben.

b) Angehörige von ihm Befehlsmäßig unterstellten Einheiten der Israelischen Polizei ausdrücklich befohlen zu haben, NICHT zum Schutz der Palästinensischen Bevölkerung einzugreifen, und die Jüdischen Kolonisten NICHT an ihrer Terroristischen Tätigkeit und ihren Pogromen zu hindern, sondern im Gegenteil, die Kolonisten bei ihren Verbrechen zu schützen und unterstützen
Sofern sich COHEN noch in Deutschland aufhält, treffen die Voraussetzungen zu, die der Deutschen Generalbundesanwalts nennt um Tätig zu werden:

• 1. Der Beschuldigte hält sich auf Deutschem gebiet auf
• 2. Das Land wo die Verbrechen des Beschuldigten, von Israel besetzte Territorien in diesem Fall, ist nicht in der Lage, die ihm vorgeworfenen Verbrechen zu verfolgen. Es besteht seitens des Staates Israel einerseits unwilligkeit seinen Pflichten nach IV Genfer Konvention nachzukommen, es besteht andrerseits ebenso die materielle Unfähigkeit des Staates Israel, diesen Verpflichtungen nachzukommen – was Deutschland im Rahmen einer subsidiären Zuständigkeit zur Strafverfolgung des COHEN verpflichtet, weil das Erfordernis der anderweitigen Verfolgung (§ 153 f Absatz 2 Satz 1 Nr. 4 StPO) nicht erfüllt ist.
• 3. Deutschland ist ein geeigneter Strafverfolgungsstandort, weil es eine enge wirtschaftliche, kulturelle und historische Beziehung zwischen Deutschland und Israel gibt.

Ein Video, auf dem klar zu sehen ist, wie einerseits Jüdische Kolonisten Palästinensische Zivilisten erschiessen, andrerseits die Polizei nicht eingreift, kann auf der Webseite:

http://tinyurl.com/65spcb

gesehen werden. Wie gesagt, führe ich das fehlende Eingreifen der Israelischen Polizei auf entsprechende Befehle.

Diese Aussage mache ich nach bestem Wissen und Gewissen, und habe allen Grund, die mir bekannte Information betreffend sowohl der Pogrome in der West Bank wie auch der Position des Beschuldigten als Wahr zu betrachten.

Ich Ersuche die Generalbundesanwaltschaft, meine persönliche Daten NICHT an den Beschuldigten oder ihm nahestehende Personenkreise weiterzugeben. Dies ist meines Wissens laut Deutscher Strafprozessordnung vorgesehen, und ich befürchte wegen dieser Anzeige Repressalien seitens Israel-nahen Kreisen.

Weiter ersuche die Generalbundesanwaltschaft, mich im Rahmen des gesetzlich möglichen von Ihren weiteren Schritten in dieser Angelegenheit informiert zu halten und mich zu benachrichtigen, ob und wann es mir gestattet ist, diese Anzeige öffentlich zu machen.

Im übrigen beziehe ich mich auf ein Telefongespräch mit Ihrem Herrn Schüssler, und stehe Ihnen gerne telefonisch zur Verfügung.

Hochachtungsvoll,

Wien, am 6. Dezember 2008

Voices Against Poverty

The Palestinians under blockade in Gaza are calling upon the international community to intervene to end the blockade and collective punishment which is imposed on one million and a half persons since 2006 by israel. The Blockade is against international laws, treaties and accords. The Palestinians in Gaza are reminding the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and the United Nations anti-poverty campaign that they must act to end the inhuman blockade of Gaza, and this not only in order to open the borders for humanitarian aid deliveries, but also to allow all Palestinians to live their life as human beings, what is being denied them by the criminal Israeli occupation and siege, and the silent complicity in this abject crime against humanity by the international community.

Citizens’ Voices Against Poverty will be Heard Around the World

From 17 to 19 September, people across the globe will turn up the volume on their call for Heads of State gathering at the United Nations on 20-22 September to demonstrate leadership in order to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) .The United Nation information service in Vienna (UNISV) released that citizens will gather at events across continents to amplify their support for the eight MDGs, a set of targets to eradicate extreme poverty and its root causes by 2015 that marks its tenth anniversary this week. They will be singing, chanting, blowing whistles, playing drums, blowing vuvuzelas, banging pots and pans and setting off alarm clocks. The sounds of these noises emanating from villages, towns and cities around the world as part of the three day mobilization “Stand Up, Take Action, Make Noise for the MDGs” will make citizens’ commitments to track and support their countries’ achievement of the Goals visible, vocal and impossible to ignore.

At a Teachers Forum hosted by UNIS Vienna in cooperation with the Vienna School Board and the Bratislava Region earlier this week, close to 60 teachers from Austria and Slovakia came together to prepare Stand Up events at their schools. The events that are being planned at schools in Vienna and the Bratislava region range from a primary school action art project, essays, graphic design and posters, to synchronized mobile phone ringing as well as an MDG march by the students. Providing for a learning experience on the MDGs for the participating school children and an exchange between them were important considerations besides contributing to the larger event.

“Stand Up” events being organized across the globe include the following:

• The Austrian non-governmental organization and platform for development and humanitarian aid “Global Responsibility” will organize a concert and jam session at the Vienna Museumsquartier on 17 September, featuring SambAttac and Oficina Art Vienna.
• Slovenia will have an International Model United Nations conference (SIMUN), where university students simulate the discussions on the MDGs in the United Nations. The programme includes a cultural and musical evening on 15 September, a bazaar on 16 September and a charity concert on 18 September as well as presentations by NGOs working in the fields of the MDGs. A round table on “Realization of the Millennium Development Goals: Between Fairy Tale And Reality”, organized by NGOs at the University of Ljubljana on 17 September will also be held as a Stand Up Against Poverty event.
• In Budapest/Hungary an event at the central plaza (Erzsébet tér) on 17 September at 5 pm will feature a reggae concert as well as a joint standing up and release of balloons.
• Manifold events are planned in the Bratislava region in Slovakia, among them an MDG march, awareness campaign by the graphic design school including posters and banners, T-shirt and sticker designs, flash mobs using the simultaneous ringing of cell phones, jingling of keys and screaming of the campaign claim will be in the city of Bratislava.
• Concerts across Bangladesh, Cambodia, Colombia, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, the Republic of Korea, Rwanda, Senegal and Zimbabwe, where local artists will sing their support of the MDGs.
• In Jordan, 40,000 children are expected to simultaneously blow whistles in support of the MDGs, in an attempt to set a new world record.
• In India, “Stand Up” will kick off with a film festival on 17 September.
• In New York City, Lincoln Plaza will be the hub of Stand Up activity on 19 September, with exhibitions on promises and progress to end poverty as well as speakers and performers.
• In Paris, French citizens and civil society organizations are organizing a flash mob and Stand Up moment in front of the Eiffel Tower on 18 September.
• In Washington, DC, citizens will come together with local musicians, drummers and bands just two blocks from the White House, to amplify their voices in support of the MDGs.
• “The Secretary General’s recent report on the Millennium Development Goals has made it clear that with only five years until the deadline by which world leaders have promised to eradicate extreme poverty and its root causes, the active partnership of citizens and governments is more important than ever,” said Corinne Woods, Director of the UN Millennium Campaign.

Last year, more than 173 million people participated in “Stand Up,” setting a new Guinness World Record. “Stand Up and Take Action” is organized globally by the United Nations Millennium Campaign, in collaboration with a wide range of partners, including the Global Call to Action against Poverty (GCAP).

Israel Prevents Journalist Mission From Entering Gaza

[use Open Image in New Window to see Images in full enlarged]

IFJ Congress

In clear defiance of international press organizations, journalists and media, and the right to freedom of movement, and while the Israeli propaganda and the censored media continue misleading the international public opinion, especially the Europeans officials, by claiming that Israel removed it’s restriction on freedom of movement and access to the Gaza Strip, the occupation authorities prohibited a high level journalist mission headed by Mr. Jim Baumila, the President of the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and IFJ Executive members accompanying him, Franco Siddi, General Secretary of the Italian Federazione Nazionale della Prensa Italiana, Eva Stabell, Norwegian Norsk Journalistlag, Androula Georgiadou, European Federation of Journalists Steering Committee member, a representative of the Union of Cyprus Journalists and Monir Zaarour, co-coordinator of IFJ Middle East and Arab World, from entering the Gaza Strip and meeting with the Palestinian Journalists and discussing their safety and the action needed to improve their freedom of movement under the strict closure imposed on Gaza since 2006.

Israel also prohibited the Vice President of the IFJ Younes Mujahid, Chairman of the National Assembly of the Moroccan Press Union, to enter the Palestinian territories together with a European delegation of the IFJ.

The prohibition of Mr. Mujahid from entering the Palestinian territories is another chapter of racism, discrimination, repression and terror against journalists and journalism which Israel has imposed on the Palestinian people since over 62 years. Under this Israeli apartheid regime which the zionists of Israel continue to apply to the Arab world, they have the shamelessness to want to start a full “normalization” of relations by using the US power to impose that by force on the Arab readers. The fact is that the relations of the Arab world with israel ARE normal and need not be changed.

The prohibition of Mr. Jim Baumila and his delegation from entering Gaza and the prohibition of Mr. Younes Mujahid from entering the West Bank reveals the bad faith and intentions of Israel as the an occupying zionist entity, which misleads the whole world by claiming a “new start” of political negotiations with the Palestinians while in fact it uses those “negotiations” to legitimize and extend the duration of the zionist occupation of Palestine. The Palestinian Journalists Union (PJS) and the IFJ released a joint statement in which they condemn the Israeli decision of preventing them from entering Gaza and denying Mr. Younes M’Jahed, IFJ senior vice president and president of the Moroccan Press Union, from entering the occupied West Bank to participate in the work of the IFJ mission.

Following the failure of the Israeli occupation authorities to allow the European IFJ Journalists mission to enter Gaza, the security forces of Hamas prevented the Palestinian journalists from participating in a video conference held in Ramallah with the President of IFJ Jim Boumelha and the delegation with him.

According to the IFJ report published on their website, the IFJ mission to Palestine started a four-day visit to the occupied West Bank at the invitation of its affiliate, the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate (PJS). The aim of the mission was to meet the newly elected leadership of the PJS and to investigate the continuing consequences of the Israeli occupation and the blockade of Gaza and East Jerusalem on the work of all journalists and media workers, and its impact on their safety, and to identify actions to ameliorate the problems of freedom of movement of the journalists in the region.

IFJ President Mr. Boumelha said: “It is unacceptable to the world community of journalists that Israeli soldiers continue to attack Palestinian journalists in total impunity”. He added: “The PJS has monitored 60 cases of attacks in the last three months. This is getting out of control and must stop immediately. As the occupying power, Israeli civilian and military authorities must discipline and prosecute soldiers who are guilty of violence against journalists”.

It should be noted that Israel did not win the last elections of IFJ World Congress in Cadiz, Spain and Athens which was held on 25-28 May 2010 in which the Palestinian Journalists Union won a membership of IFJ. There are signs that the troubles caused by the occupation to this IFJ delegation are in revenge for israel losing in these elections against the Palestinian delegation.

A Medal for War Crimes

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

Tony Blair, the war criminal of Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East and former prime minister of the UK, was awarded last night Sept. 13 2010 the “Liberty Medal” at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia by the famous protagonist of many sex scandals in the White House, former President Bill Clinton. the chair of the NCC joined thw president while awarding the disgraceful Bliar in ignorance of the scene of last week when he was pelted with shoes, eggs, and beer bottles during the signing of his miserable first book in Ireland, after he left millions of widows orphans behind him in Iraq. The “medal of freedom” is supposedly given to people in recognition of their effort for peace, NOT for war crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity, corruption and thievery. This award was established in 1988 on the bicentennial anniversary of the proclamation of the US Constitution, and until now it has been given ONLY to war criminals from the US and its allies.

Another signing event of Blairs book was canceled in London due to the huge protest against his crimes. Blair brought disaster to the humanity and is still committing genocidal crimes in the same way everywhere he puts his feet.

Blair received his criminal award two days after the exposition of a scandalous investigation into his activities published by the dailymail.co.uk, click here to read the interesting report published in English language.

In Palestine, Blair used his position as envoy of the “Middle East Quartet” (UN, US, EU and Russia) to help the so-called “Wataniya projects”, which benefited his personal commercial sponsors and the group around President Abbas as well as the biggest of all fat cats Dr. Mohammad Mustafa who is Chairman of Wataniya Mobile, President of the Palestine Investment Fund and who styles himself as “financial adviser” of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

The scandalous issue is that Blair, in coordination with fat cats of the PA, sucked US and OPEC donations which were destined for small projects in Palestine like financing Palestinian farmers and unemployed people, in order to finance big projects such as Wataniya. This misuse of funds also benefits the Royal Qatar Qtel group represented in persons by Sheikh Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Saud Al Thani, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Qtel and Wataniya group, Sheikh Mohammed bin Suhaim Al Thani, Vice Chairman of the Board, Dr. Nasser Marefah, Chief Executive Qtel, Tarek Abbas, son of President Mahmoud Abbas and General Manager of Sky Advertising and public relations and who leads the Wataniya advertising agency, Dr. Momammad Mustafa, representative of the National Mobile Phone Co. and the Palestinian Investment Fund, and the closet group around Abbas, and the consultants and commercial sponsor team of Tony Blairs companies.

On Tuesday Nov. 10 2009, Wataniya representatives (all the Sheikhs mentioned above), Tony Blair and Palestinian Minister of Telecommunications Dr. Mashhour Abu Daqah launched a press conference in which they declared the opening of Wataniya. Blair gave a speech during this press conference in which he did not say that his team of consultants and commercial sponsors benefited from this project.

Wataniya is an old project of the Ministry of Communications which was signed for giving a license agreement with the mobile phone company Wataniya on March 14 2007. The project was signed by Jamal Al-Khudari, a former minister of communications and Dr. Mohamed Mustafa, the Vice Chairman of Wataniya in the presence of President Abbas and his Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, at that time also in the PA government. Scot Alan Richardson was the former chief for Palestine of Wataniya.

Al-Khudari is now the President of the Popular Committee Against the Siege on Gaza. He is the owner and the chairman of the five-star luxury Al-Mathaf Hotel and restaurant, a project of 2 million dollars located in the Sudaniah area of Gaza City, where the people otherwise do not even have money to eat.

The Wataniya project was faced with problems by the Israeli occupation, which threatened to the end the project. These problems were solved by the war criminal Tony Blair through his interference with the dirty Israeli criminals. This was the only mission of Blair in Palestine: to cash in on the shoulders of poor people.

Blair was never welcomed in Palestine, all Palestinians faction without exception called Blair a war criminal. Only the closest beneficiaries of the Palestinian Authority and the dirty politician thugs are singing with another tone. Blair was humiliated and insulted in front of public during his useless tour in my stolen homeland Hebron. “You are a terrorist, a war criminal, you are not welcome in the land of Palestine, get out of our holy land”, a Palestinian from the Hamdan family shouted in the face of the dishonorable Blair. The bodyguards of “the poodle” of Blair hid him and ran like rabbits until other people caught the poor Palestinian who had dared to protest the presence of this vile scum in our city.

Bliar, who is surrounded with an army of bodyguards whenever he travels or makes a tour, ONLY deserve to be hanged or sentenced to death in accordance to the international laws against war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity. The medals and signs of affection which he receives from other criminal politicians will never erase the fact that Blair is a WAR CRIMINAL who caused murders of millions in IRAQ and who is involved in the wholesale looting of Palestine. What better testimony to this is that some weeks ago he reportedly bought an apartment for his daughter and paid one million pounds in cash. Where did he get that money while most honorable English people are equally reduced to penury due to his criminal machinations?

Yearning And Tears At The Eid

My nephews and nieces in Hebron.

I yearn for my mother
I miss my siblings
I yearn to see my sisters
I Yearn for Palestine
I yearn for my home
I yearn for Jerusalem and Hebron
I yearn to see my uncles, cousins and all my relatives
I yearn to see my neighbors and friends

Today is Eid al-Fitr, (a festival where family and friend meet)
I heard about this Eid
Which Eid is this?
Eid without family is MOURNING
Eid without homeland is a CATASTOPHE
Eid without relatives is BOREDOM
Eid without friends is HELL
Eid without Jerusalem and Hebron is NOT Eid
Eid without ID is a CRIME against Humanity
Eid without freedom is JAIL
Eid in the Exile is Israeli TERROR

I yearn for my mother’s kisses at Eid
I yearn for her and her sweet words and meals at Eid,
I yearn for my brother’s presents, jokes and fun at Eid
I yearn for my uncle’s visits at Eid
I yearn for my nephews and nieces noise, all waiting for presents of the Eid
I am yearning for my sister’s talk and arguments.
I yearn for the family house at the Eid
I am yearning for Al-Eydiah (small presents of money given to women at Eid)

Today is Eid al-Fitr,
I feel sad at this Eid
I feel ORPHANED at this Eid
I feel ALIENATED at this Eid
I feel LONLY at this Eid
The people around me laugh and smile
But I laugh with my tears at this Eid and every day
Friends sent congratulations at this Eid
But I feel them as condolences

Which Eid is my Eid?
Do I celebrate the Eid with my shadow?

Yesterday I dreamed of celebrating Eid with family in Hebron.
I was happy with my dream,
Suddenly my dream murdered and ended.
I saw the Israeli soldiers. I woke up frightened and scared.

It is difficult to live with horror and fear in your dreams
It is hard to see the snipers chasing you in your dreams.
It is hard to forget what I saw with my eyes
It is hard to forget the images of the dead children
the blood irrigating the earth.
Those are war crimes.
Crimes against humanity.
ONLY JUSTICE and FREEDOM could liberate you from these NIGHTMARES

A Monologue With a Deaf Diplomat

[use Open Image in New Window to see picture in full enlarged]

Last weekend on Thursday and Friday, I went to the Irish Embassy in Vienna for personal business. My visit to the Irish Embassy reminded me of my previous visit to the Irish Embassy in Tel Aviv in 2002. Eight years have passed between my first and second visits to an Irish embassy. There was a big difference in the treatment which I received then and how I was treated now. Good things, kind words and gestures, respectful treatment, but also bad treatment, bad words, unfriendly gestures are never forgotten by most of people, by journalists and writers. “A proverb from my country says that the wise take into account the presence of journalists whenever they say or do anything”.

At the Irish Embassy in Tel Aviv I was treated very well by the Irish Ambassador Patrick Hennessy. In Vienna, everything was the opposite. These two contradictory treatments between both embassies did not even shock, but opened my eyes, my mouth and forced me to carry these few lines to the public record. Without further details about what happened at the embassy of Ireland in Vienna, I could say that what I heard and saw during both visits on last Thursday and Friday was neither acceptable nor reasonable.

On Thursday all what I heard was “I am busy and if you have a question you can call me”. On Friday, I stood from 10:25 – 11:35 behind a thick glass window listening to contradictory instructions which changed every 15 minutes when it would have been possible to reduce all the discussion to five minutes, or even to say the right things during my visit on Thursday, if the staff had shown at least a modicum of civility to me and to other people going about their business there, instead of forcing me to repeat my visit on Friday and partaking in a useless discussion which I perceived ONLY as humiliating.

The way how I was treated made me wonder:

• How many times per day does the staff at the Irish Embassy treat visitors in the same way?
• Does Ambassador Frank Cogan know how people are treated at his embassy, or is such behavior off-the-record and depending on the mood of the staff?
• Is this kind of treatment a policy implemented at all western embassies, perhaps in accordance to instructions from the USA and only against people from Muslim background? Would the staff at the Irish embassy behave likewise if the persons applying for visa or extending an invitation were not of Arab background?

In my opinion there is a big difference between following and implementing the laws and regulations in a respectful and friendly way as is done at most authorities in all countries, and humiliating visitors with unfriendly, haughty demeanor just because the taste of the application was not sweet enough for the staff. There is a big different between clarifying things in a concise and objective way in a couple of minutes, and saying the things in contradictory ways and in a commanding demeanor which touches the feelings of those addressed in such a way.

The treatment which I received at the Irish Embassy in Vienna reminded me of the beautiful image and the good treatment which I received at the Irish Embassy in Tel Aviv. This was in December of 2002 when Mary Lawlor and the organizers of the Dublin Platform for Human Rights Defenders (Frontline, International Foundation for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders Foundation, etc) invited me to participate and help them to prepare the conference.

I still remember the young, elegant and friendly Ambassador who gave me the visa in a very short time. I remember Ambassador Patrick Hennessy, who held an emergency meeting in his office after the Israeli authorities hindered me by denying me the necessary permit to accesses Ben Gurion airport. Ambassador Hennessy received me in his office in the black-white tower at 3 Daniel Frisch Street. On the table were some cookies. Ambassador Hennessy said “Here is my diplomatic team sitting with you at the same table, we all stand with you and are ready to help you solve your problem”.

Ambassador Hennessy listened with interest to me and he promised to solve the problem. After that he excused politely and left for a meeting out of the Embassy. He said: “you can continue sitting with my team explaining and clarifying the problem”. I remember that I drank tea and ate the delicious cookies together with his friendly team.

Finally, the intervention of Ambassador Hennessy solved the problems created by the Israelis and a travel permit was issued by them. I traveled to Ireland. It was a wonderful country, a friendly nation who expresses a special sympathy with Palestine and the Palestinian cause as it closely resembles their history of about 800 years of resistance to foreign occupation.

In Ireland, I worked with the Frontline team to prepare for the Dublin Platform for Human Rights Defenders conference which was held at Dublin Castle on 17 –19 January 2002. I still remember this international event in Ireland a country where human rights are respected. I still remember the nice vacation from the horrors of the Israeli occupation and the friendly Irish people whom I met. During my stay I was able to interview members of the Irish Parliament and also Mary Robinson, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights at that time, Hina Jilani, UN Special Representative on Human Rights Defenders, and many other Irish people whose names I do not remember.

In Ireland things are different from other Europeans countries. The Irish people are very friendly, they talk to you openly and without complication on the street. The Irish people seem to be always smiling, at least I don’t remember gloomy faces. They work hard and at night they love fun, to go out and drink their renowned “Guinness Beer”. They are fond of making parties at their houses, where people can stay until the morning. In Ireland night turned to be active the same like day, discussions, dialogue, and other activities always raised at night; and each one chooses the right suits which fit with him.

Many beautiful images remind me of my trip to Ireland and the Irish people and journalists. The Irish-Times newspaper published a report about my visit. The mainstream Irish Radio aired a discussion of about half an hour. The Irish Sunday Tribune Editor in Chef helped me.

The ONLY awful and ugly memory I have from Ireland was Mark Meir Sofer, the Israeli ambassador to Ireland at that time. Sofer did not only comment on what the Irish media reported about me, but he sent incitements and false reports about me to his government. According to Sofer, my presence at the Dublin Human Right International Platform, in which over 120 country participated, and which all ambassadors to Ireland were attending, among them Sofer himself, was “a political campaign against Israel”.

The staff of Sofer called me several times during my stay in Ireland and connected me with him. He said that he would recommend to his government “to treat me in the right way as a journalist”. Sofer “invited” me to his office at the Israeli Embassy after Mary Lawlor fixed a meeting between us, probably due to incessant nagging from the Israelis.

The entrance of the Israeli Embassy in Dublin is at the same time the entrance to a zone in Ireland were human rights, dignity, respect and decency mean nothing. I received all kind of humiliations at the hands of the staff of Sofer. I was forced to take off my shoes, to strip out of my clothes in a dirty room. I was only allowed into the office of Sofer without shoes and when he saw my miserable situation he blandly excused himself, telling me that he “did not have any power to change the security protocols at his embassy”. He added that his “security” thugs were even following him to the toilet. What a coward, hiding behind people under his command.

I remember that I told Sofer that he and his country were complicit to all crimes against us Palestinians and that they were scared of their own crimes and their victims. I simply told him that normal people wouldn’t allow themselves to humiliate their guest in such a way “you are scared of what you are doing and of your victims, and everything you do is crimes by the standards of international laws”.

When the thugs of Sofer brought my shoes to his office, I refused to put them on. I preferred to get out to the street without shoes, to leave my shoes for them to enjoy as much as they wanted. If I was not ashamed to get out stripped of my clothes, which the “security” thugs of Sofer had forced me to take off in a dirty room, and if the laws of Ireland allowed human beings to be completely naked in the streets, then I wouldn’t accept to put on the clothes which these miserable’s had forced me to take off. I met Sofer was wearing red skirt, a shirt without sleeves and long black coat. The meeting with Sofer ended after an hour. It was a monologue with a deaf zionist, an extremist member of the israeli Likud party who was not accessible to reason.

My stay in Ireland ended on February 19 2002. On my arrival to Ben Gurion airport, the airport security put me into a small cell in a corner of the airport. The cell was full of cockroaches, it smelled foul and was extremely dirty, I shouted loud because of my scare from the cockroaches. Over 10 security thugs interrogated me. When they asked me to take off my skirt and backless top, I refused to do that without the presence of a woman. I spent three hours under interrogation. I found that each word I had said during my stay in Ireland, each word I had said at the human rights conference were written down.

The interrogators had a copy of the Irish-Times newspaper and of protocols of what I had said on their table at Ben Gurion airport. My top crime was obviously that I was doing my journalistic work in the right way during my stay in Ireland, exposing the scandalous crime of raping a 9-year old Palestinian girl at the israeli Moscobiyyah police detention center in Jerusalem. I handed Mary Robinson a letter in which I asked her to send a team tom investigate this horrible crime committed against a Palestinian child at the Israeli police headquarters.

The Israeli interrogators released me from the airport after several hours. When I arrived home, another horrible crime was waiting for me. My young sister was paralyzed after the IDF had shot nerve gas grenades in Hebron. She was at a shopping center in the city when the Israeli soldiers shot the gas grenades at peace demo. My family, which never showed interest in politics in any way, was very sad. When I tried to return to my home in old city of Hebron, it was declared as a military area. The Israeli soldiers expelled me out of Hebron and denied me the right to live with my family and following my work as a journalist. Mark Sofer was involved in all these crimes with his reports, which were direct incitements against me, reports which he submitted to the “State of Israel” and to his friend Daniel Seaman, the Israeli government spokesperson and a former Mossad agent, in which he claimed that I had “made a political campaign against Israel in Ireland”.

I would like to refer this report to Mr. Micheal Martin, Irish Foreign Minister, and to Frank Cogan, the current Irish Ambassador in Austria. In summary I can only say that what Mark Sofer did to me happened during his presence in the State of Ireland, while I was a welcomed guest of the Irish Human Right organization, and that the reason of my expulsion from Palestine and of my eight years in the exile in the friendly state of Austria was because of Sofer’s smear and incitement, the false reports which he submitted to Israel.

It is not justified that a small article which was published in the Irish Times becomes grounds for expelling me from my homeland after stealing my house and all my property in Hebron. Such a thing is witness to the mindset of the miserable piece of work Sofer and his miserable israel. I will never give up or forgive that they expelled me from Palestine because of the small article published in the Irish Times. For now, I love Austria as I love Palestine, and Vienna become a new homeland. Even so I will continue revealing news about Israeli crimes until the justice treats all those criminals in the right way and I see as many of them as possible in jail, as they justly deserve.

This was my story of the deaf israeli diplomat Mark Sofer, the former Israeli ambassador to Ireland and now israeli ambassador in India. The staff at the Irish embassy in Vienna, also deserve my gratitude because they reminded me of all those crimes of long ago and helped me to release part of the still hidden crimes and horrors of Israel. I hope that the staff of Ambassador Frank Cogan will be able to treat me in the right way, as a human being, during my next visit.

A Palestinian Rent-Boy Goes to Washington

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

What more horrors will these people cook for Palestinians? (Pic Credit: Reuters)

On August 25, 2010, President Mahmoud Abbas traveled to Washington to start new rounds of the so-called “peace negotiations” headed by the former negotiator of Oslo, Saeb Erekat. In engaging in these negotiations, Abbas chose to ignore the will of the majority of Palestinians, of the Popular Front, the Democratic People’s Party, Hamas, independent figures and other civil organizations and factions, and to rely solely on his own decision, the corrupt Fatah central committee, the illegal cabinet, the corrupt Arab regimes in Egypt and Jordan, on the congratulations of the Saudi Royal family which heads a kingdom of illiteracy, on the League of Arab States which has no real power and is instead a front for zionist interests, and Middle East “peace” quartet composed of representatives of the United Nations, the Russian Federation, the United States and the European Union and which is the strongest ally and cheerleader of the Israeli crimes, genocide and war crimes and is headed by war criminal and presumed pederast Tony Blair.

Abbas, instead of submitting to democratic process, had his military forces invaded a conference in Ramallah which was held by people who are against direct negotiations with Israel before they freeze the settlement construction in the occupied territories in the West Bank, and who denounce the auspices of the US government, lead by zionists who are involved in subverting the cause of Palestinians.

The PA armed forces destroyed everything at the venue, taking down placards with slogans, breaking the journalists cameras, beating the attendants, chanting like mafia thugs and raising Abbas posters. The conference, which was organized jointly by all Palestinian political parties, independent figures, human rights and civil organizations, had to be canceled. During the criminal attack against these opposition parties, Abbas and Erekat were busy in their preparations to travel to Washington. The Israeli prime minister was permitting the jewish squatters to continue constructing their new colonies in the West Bank while perpetrating acts of terror against Palestinians.

Saeb Erekat is an American infiltrator who gave former American president Bill Clinton the idea to invite the deceased Yasser Arafat to Camp David in the US and locking him into a room and continue making pressure on him until he would renounce the Palestinian rights and sign a paper stating that the Jews have the same rights as the Muslims in Al-Aqsa mosque. Erekat is the same person who signed the previous disaster called the “Oslo Agreements”, which served only the interest of the Israeli occupation and its squatter colonies and which was used as a pretext to divide the West Bank to ghettos. This is why Saeb Erekat stayed as the chief of Palestinian negotiations for already 17 years, as if there was no qualified politician in Palestine EXCEPT him. Erekat wouldn’t hesitate to sign recognition for Israel as a Jewish state, to renounce Palestinian rights and to accept the Abu Dis town, a district of Jerusalem, as a capital of a future Palestinian State. Erekat only “strategy” is always signing whatever the jews want, it sure must pay good. Simply said, Erekat and Abbas are representing themselves, the defeated group of the PA, these spies and collaborators in the West Bank and outside of Palestine.

After Abbas arrival to Washington and during the last three days, OVER 600 students, teachers, doctors, engineers, religious figures, scientists, political activists, and former prisoners at Israeli Jails were arrested by his armed thugs, these so-called “Palestinian security forces”. The Illegal and unjustified campaign of arrests was the largest one in the history of the West Bank. It was perpetrated against the symbols and the leaders of the Palestinian oppositions in the occupied territories in the West Bank. Old men of 60 years age like Dr. Mostafa Shawar, a professor at the University of Hebron or Prof. Nizar Shihateh, a former director of Ministry of Education, were arrested and beaten senseless.

From left: Lieutenant Colonel Guy Hazut, Major Feneral Avi Mizrahi, Brigadier General Alon Nitsan and Brigadier General Yoav Mordachai.

The wave of arrests initiated by Abbas was coordinated between the Israeli commanders, namely Major General Avi Mizrahi, Gen. Nitzan Alon, Brig. Gen. Yoav “Polly” Mordechai, Lt. Col Guy Hazut, Lt. Dean Nahum and their counterparts from the Palestinian security forces, which are but a cell of American-Israeli-Palestinian collaborators imposed by US-EU on Palestinians and Palestine in the occupied territories. The meeting to coordinate the wave of arrests and beatings was held at the Israeli military headquarter (DCO, DCL) in Hebron after the killing of 4 jewish squatters from the Beit Hagai colony, which is widely thought to have been perpetrated or coordinated by the Shin Bet, as is usual when any “negotiations” take place like, the always timely “suicide bombings” which happened during the reign of terror of Sharon.

According to a statement by Gabi Ashkenazi, IDF Chief of Staff, published on August 31 2010 by Israeli Hebrew media, an official meeting was held between the IDF commanders in Hebron and the Palestinian counterpart “Generals” after the killing of the “Israeli” (actually four jewish squatters, two Americans and two Russians, who were illegally occupying stolen Palestinian lands in the colony of “Beit Hagai” in Hebron). The commanders coordinated their operations in order to identify and capture the resistance who killed these American and Russian jews, “terrorists” in the language of Ashkenazi. The Israelis issued a list of Palestinian political activist’s names supposed to be close to Hamas and other political factions successors of the Hamas resistance wing, the Izz el-Deen al-Qassam Brigades from the Gaza Strip, who supposedly had declared their responsibility for the killing of the four squatters.

Palestinian Authority Or Judenrat?

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the resistance operation near Hebron. His “Prime Minister” Salam Fayyad also condemned the operation and promised to prevent a repeat of other operations in the future. The Western community and all the puppets of US and Israel, like the German government, which never said one word when the Israeli military murdered Palestinian civilians, executed Palestinian students in cold blood at the IDF checkpoints spread through West Bank and … now condemned the attack, stated that it was an obstacle in the way of starting the “peace process”. Another term of negotiation followed the failed ones, 17 years ago in Oslo, then Sharm Al-Sheikh … which were aimed at the Palestinian national rights, renouncing our rights, selling Jerusalem and justifying the squatter colonization in the occupied territories in order to stay in a ghetto ruled by a Judenrat called PA, which would protect Israel and feed its own bank accounts abroad.

Palestinian sources and human rights organization in the West Bank stated that more than 600 Palestinians identified as political activists of Hamas were arrested by “Palestinian security”. The Hamas movement confirmed the news of the arrest of 600 of its members, political activists in the West Bank. They stated that, since the killing of four colonists near Hebron last Tuesday for which the Al-Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility.

The big number of arrests shows the disgusting level of PA collaboration with the Israeli occupation. Four colonists were killed and 600 Palestinian were arrested. It is a farce, a big shame on the PA if we take in our consideration that absolutely all these people were arrested in a violent, their houses and furniture vandalized, their children and families terrorized in the same way as this is done by the Israeli occupation soldiers. The arrest of these Palestinians was carried out during the last days of the Islamic month of Ramadan and before Eid Al-Fitr, a major Islamic festival which takes place yearly. During previous years, the Israeli occupation would release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners before Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Adha and at the start of Ramadan. Under the PA, the opposite happens: hundreds of Palestinians are jailed illegally and for no reason at all. The life of one jewish squatter living in the West Bank colonies is being equaled with 130 Palestinian citizen by the standards of this so-called “Palestinian National Authority”. Four squatters were killed and 600 Palestinians were jailed and tortured. This is the dirty mission of a new militarized occupation headed by the PA.

The Palestinian human rights center PCHR condemned these Palestinian arrests and called on the PA to respect the Palestinian Supreme Court ruling of 20 February 1999, which considers political detentions illegal. The PCHR demanded the immediate release of all political prisoners held by PA security services in the West Bank jails.

It is shameful and display of a miserable mindset of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and his illegal “Prime Minister” Salam Fayyad. Such were the only comments which landed in my mailbox within the torrents of insults which the Palestinian proffered against President Abbas and his government in the wake of the arrest of these 600 political activists before Eid Al-Fitr. The Palestinian “security” gangs inflicted heavy damage to the property and the homes of the political activists which were stormed in a brutal manner which was worse even than the atrocities and behavior of the Israeli soldiers. Those forces were trained by US General Keith Dayton and his elements in Jericho and Jordan.

It is a shame that this same group of infiltrators who failed in Oslo are still looking for excuses and arguments to justify their surrender and acceptance the US zionist policy which dwarfs the Palestinian cause.

It is a shame that the garbage of Oslo is trying again to impose themselves by force and that their criminal conspiracy is coordinated with Arab traitors against us Palestinians, implementing the Israeli repression, US tyranny, and sell us at the UN Security Council which will adopt the birth of their prostituted son and imposed their conspiracy as a “final solution” for the conflict imposed on Palestinian by thieving European jews.

According to Quds Press news, a Palestinian human rights organization revealed that officers of the Israeli intelligence service Shin Bet or Shabak, are interrogating the Palestinians detainees supposedly from “Hamas” in the prisons of the Palestinian Authority. These detainees were arrested by the PA in the wake of a supposed resistance operation in which four squatters were killed last week near Hebron in the occupied West Bank. These killings are thought to have been perpetrated by the Israeli Shabak in order to have an excuse to arrest the people who were now arrested.

The Ahrar Organization for Defense of prisoners condemned “the participation of Israeli zionists officers of the Shin Bet in interrogations together with the PA of the political activists incarcerated by the PA”. The Junaid prison under control of the Palestinian Authority is in Nablus. Ahrar considers this interference in the Palestinian affairs as a serious matter, which exposes the PA and its dirty role in protecting the zionists squatters in the West Bank.

Ahrar also strongly condemned the violations of human rights on part of the Palestinian Authority and the concomitant practices of brutality and torture against the abducted Palestinians using unacceptable methods of torture which are forbidden internationally. They appealed to humanitarian organizations and human rights committees to defend the prisoners and to stand by to their responsibilities and to seek an immediate halt to these violations.
