being murdered and starved on daily
basis, the Western people and their
governments continue to cover-up
Israeli war crimes. In the West,
the creation of the "Jewish state"
by usurping Palestinian rights is
their way of telling Jews around
the world:
We are sorry for practicing anti-Semitism
against you for centuries, and to compensate for the
many Holocausts we have committed against you, we
shall unquestionably support the creation of the
"Jewish state". And if that happens on the expense of
the Palestinian people, let it be.
It should be noted that the Palestinian people still own
94% of Palestine, and since 1948 the most basic of their
political and economical rights have been suppressed. The
right to defend anybody's home is one of the most basic
of human rights, however, when a Palestinian defends his
home, he becomes a "terrorist" automatically and any
Israeli retaliation is justified. In the Western media,
a Palestinian has one and only one right: to die silently.
Here in the United States, American children are taught
early on that it was necessary to drop nuclear weapons on
Japanese civilians in order to save American lives and end
WWII. Similarly, many Americans see such an action
appropriate because they were attacked in Pearl Harbor.
On the other hand, a Palestinian has no right to defend
his home which has been looted by persecuted European
Jews; and if he does, then he is the terrorist!
In that respect, I like to remind Israelis and Westerners of
what Moshe Dayan stated at the funeral of an Israeli farmer
killed by a Palestinian in 1956:
". . . Let us not today fling accusation at the murderers.
What cause have we to complain about their fierce
hatred to us? For eight years now, they sit in their
refugee camps in Gaza, and before their eyes
we turn into our homestead the land and villages
in which they and their forefathers have lived.We should demand his blood not from the
[Palestinian] Arabs of Gaza but from ourselves.
. . . Let us make our reckoning today. We are a
generation of settlers, and without the steel helmet
and gun barrel, we shall not be able to plant a tree
or build a house. . . . Let us not be afraid to see the
hatred that accompanies and consumes the lives of
hundreds of thousands of [Palestinian] Arabs who
sit all around us and wait for the moment when
their hands will be able to reach our blood."
(Iron Wall, p. 101)
The Palestinian people have a simple message to the
Western people who have protected and justified Israeli
war crimes for decades:
Our DATE is 60 years LATE, we shall return.We do not wish to be crossed for what you have
sinned against your Jewish citizens; we do not wish
to be your Messiah. We do not ask for your sympathy
nor your money; we ask for the most basics of human
rights. Replacing your crimes
(which you have committed against your Jewish citizens)
with other crimes will bring neither peace nor prosperity.
Make no mistake about it: you are complicit in this
crime and history will not forgive.
Sincerely,
Abu al-Sous (Salah Mansour)
