De Israelische Terreur 242

Ik maakte deze foto van Israelische munitie in het Lajee Center, het cultureel centrum van het Palestijnse vluchtelingenkamp Aida nabij Bethlehem. De grote hulzen zijn fragmentatiebommen gevuld met ijzeren kogels voorzien van een rubber laagje. Kinderen van het kamp zijn door de Israelische munitie gedood. Jaren geleden zag ik in het grootste Palestijnse ziekenhuis in Oost Jeruzalem Palestijnse kinderen sterven als gevolg van deze munitie. De Nederlandse regering en overgrote meerderheid van onze parlementsleden steunen deze Israelische terreur middels economische, militaire, diplomatieke en politieke steun aan 'de joodse natie'.


Haaretz bericht:

'Jews are capable of acting like neo-Nazis
By Meron Rappaport

Last week, as all the Israeli television networks were broadcasting pictures of the "neo-Nazi" teenagers attacking random victims, public attention inevitably turned to the attackers. It is difficult to imagine a neo-Nazi group operating here, in the Jewish State. This combination of Jewish neo-Nazis would also seem inconceivable in other countries. That is why the story made the front pages in many newspapers the world over. In Israel, the discussion immediately turned to the Law of Return, as if the phenomenon would disappear if only those Jews who are recognized as such by Jewish law [halakha] were allowed to enter Israel. This baseless argument is refuted by the fact that some of the neo-Nazi group's members are considered Jews according to halakha. And, sadly, the fact is that kosher Jews are also capable of acting like neo-Nazis. This is undoubtedly a shocking phenomenon and the attackers, alongside the environment that bred this pattern of behavior, must be dealt with. But the victims also deserve attention. According to comments made by the attackers, most of their targets were foreign workers. Haaretz's Roni Singer-Heruti reported that the police mounted a concerted effort to locate the victims in order to strengthen the case against the attackers, but this effort was unsuccessful. None of the victims filed a complaint with the police. It seems that a foreign worker in Israel is more afraid of the police than of a gang of hooligans that beats him mercilessly. The hard work of the Immigration Police has apparently borne fruit.

This is no surprise to anyone involved in the field. Noa Kaufman, the director of a clinic run by Physicians for Human Rights, says that foreign workers occasionally come to the clinic after taking a beating. Although the staff encourages them to file a complaint with the police, the workers are usually scared of doing so. The fact that no one complained about these brutal attacks on foreign workers should trouble us even more because they occurred in public places. Even if the gang members made sure there were no eyewitnesses to the attacks, they probably left the victims bleeding at the scene. It is possible that passersby stumbled upon them, saw the beaten people and continued on their way.
