ISRAEL DOING ITS BIT TO KEEP MUBARAK IN POWER


February 1, 2011 at 16:52 (Corrupt Politics, Egypt, War Crimes, zionist harassment)
It didn’t take long….. but it happened! Israel has sent crowd dispersal weapons to Egypt. If the Egyptian Army won’t attack the people, it looks like Israel might have to do it for them….


Rights NGO claims that Israeli planes carrying crowd dispersal weapons have arrived in Egypt


The International Network for Rights and Development has claimed that Israeli logistical support has been sent to Egypt’s President Hosni Mubarak to help his regime confront demonstrations demanding that he steps down as head of state. According to reports by the non-governmental organisation, three Israeli planes landed at Cairo’s Mina International Airport on Saturday carrying hazardous equipment for use in dispersing and suppressing large crowds.


In the statement circulated by the International Network, it was disclosed that Egyptian security forces received the complete cargoes on three Israeli planes which were, it is claimed, carrying an abundant supply of internationally proscribed gas to disperse unwanted crowds. If the reports are accurate, this suggests that the Egyptian regime is preparing for the worse in defence of its position, despite the country sinking into chaos.


On Sunday 30 January, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Israeli government ministers in a public statement saying: “Our efforts aim at the continued maintenance of stability and security in the region… and I remind you that peace between the Israeli establishment and Egypt has endured for over three decades… we currently strive to guarantee the continuity of these relations.” Netanyahu added, “We are following the events unfolding in Egypt and the region with vigilance… and it is incumbent at this time that we show responsibility, self-restraint and maximum consideration for the situation… in the hope that the peaceful relations between the Israeli establishment and Egypt continue…”


The Israeli prime minister urged Israeli government ministers to refrain from making any additional statements to the media.

And, of course America’s hands are far from clean in all of this…..




American made tear gas in Cairo and the West Bank


Posted by Joseph Dana


People in the street confronting police and army soldiers with revolutionary aspirations. Some youth throw stones in symbolic acts of resistance as the elders try to calm down their rage and focus on chants of unity. Armed forces reply with tear gas and rubber-coated steel bullets. This is a regular occurrence in the West Bank in villages like Nabi Saleh, Ni’ilin and Beit Umar. Over the past week, it has been unfolding on the streets of Cairo, Suez and Alexandria as well. From Ni’ilin to Cairo, the tear gas that is being employed against demonstrations is made in the United States. The story of American made tear gas in Egypt has recently entered the chaotic international news cycle to the dismay of the American government. But journalists have been focusing only on the fact that the tear gas is supplied by the United States.Tweets and media reports from Egypt are full of photos of and references to tear gas canisters “Made in the USA” and produced by Combined Systems Inc. in Jamestown, Pennsylvania.
The Israeli army regularly uses high velocity tear gas canisters against unarmed demonstrations in the West Bank. The Egyptians armed forces and police have so far refused to employ high velocity canisters based on the fact there have been no reports from the ground of their existence in the demonstrations. In Israel, high velocity canisters have resulted in the death of Bassem Abu Rahmah in 2009 and the critical wounding of American Citizen, Tristan Anderson. Recently, the canisters have been used in the village of Nabi Saleh, with grave results.

Standard aluminum tear canisters, which are being used in Egypt, have injured thousands in the West Bank over the past eight years of demonstrations against the Separation Barrier. Soldiers regularly break army regulations and fire canisters directly at protesters– turning the canister into a large bullet– and almost never face punishment. Three weeks ago, a soldier fired a tear gas canister directly at me from a distance of 15 meters in Beit Ummar. Luckily I was able to get out of the way. Last summer, an American Jew was not as lucky as me and lost her eye in a demonstration when a tear gas canister was fired directly at her head. The soldier who fired the canister was cleared of any wrongdoing.


According to international coverage of the demonstrations in Egypt, there has been little coverage of police or army using tear gas canisters as large bullets. As the demonstrations slow down, more evidence could emerge that tear gas canisters were used offensively as they are used in the West Bank. However, it seems unlikely given the fact that there have been almost no reports about this to come out of Egypt in the past seven days.


The United States provides countries all over the world with military products with little regard of how the products are used. When it comes to tear gas, the issue is not that the United States is providing Israel and Egypt with the tear gas. The issue is how the gas is used and who it is used against. It is legitimate for a state to use tear gas in crowd control situations. It is not legitimate to use tear gas canisters as large bullets with the intention to kill or injure protesters.

The Guardian bericht: Tony Blair: Mubarak is 'immensely courageous and a force for good'

De klokkenluiderswebsite WikiLeaks is door een Noorse politicus genomineerd voor de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede 2011, voor de rol die het speelt voor de vrijheid van meningsuiting.

"WikiLeaks is een van de belangrijkste bijdragers tot de vrijheid van meningsuiting en transparantie", zei parlementslid Snorre Valen bij de nominatie. Valen sprak over WikiLeaks' rol in het openbaren van de bezittingen van de voormalige president van Tunesië, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, en zijn familie. Dat droeg bij tot het protest dat hem uiteindelijk in ballingschap dreef.

Het parlementslid van de Linkse Socialistische Partij, die deel uitmaakt van de regerende rood-groene coalitie, stipte ook aan dat WikiLeaks documenten publiceerde over corruptie door de autoriteiten, regeringen en bedrijven, maar ook over "illegale surveillance, oorlogsmisdaden en folteringen door een aantal staten".

Het Nobelcomité, dat bestaat uit vijf leden, adviseert om geen nominatievoorstellen op voorhand bekend te maken. Toch bestaan er geen formele regels die dat verhinderen, waardoor ieder jaar heel wat speculatie kan ontstaan voor de winnaar wordt bekendgemaakt in oktober. (anp/vsv/belga/adb)
