Richard A. Falk against Israel

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

In a statement, Richard Falk, the UN Special Rapporteur for human rights in the Palestinian territories, said the civilian population in Gaza was “being collectively punished by policies that amount to a Crime Against Humanity.”

The international court should “determine whether the Israeli civilian leaders and military commanders responsible for the Gaza siege should be indicted and prosecuted for violations of international criminal law.”

Falk said Israel was only allowing into Gaza small amounts of food and fuel in quantities enough to “stave off mass famine and disease.” (Trend News)

It is not the first time that the American Jew Richard A. Falk lashes out against Israel. In a June 2007 article called “Slouching toward a Palestinian Holocaust,” Falk compared Israeli actions in the Palestinian territories with those of the Nazis during World War II and accused Israel of having “genocidal tendencies,”, infuriating the Jewish State. The Israeli government then announced that it will deny Falk a visa to Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

The question here is who is genocidal in Palestine ? The Palestinians (or whoever they are) had many opportunities to form their own state. They rejected them. The Hamas and the Hezbollah want the extermination of the Jews. Is it not genocide ?

Is American technology stopping Hamas?

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Ynet News reported that US and Egyptian soldiers paired up in recent weeks in a project to uncover Palestinian weapons’ smuggling tunnels; 42 tunnels discovered in less than a month.

But how many tunnel are there between Gaza and Egypt?

The Daily Telegraph reports that on some estimates there are now up to 500 passageways across to Egypt, mostly clustered around the town of Rafah, which straddles the border.

So lets do the maths:

42:500 = 8.4% - Oops!

That’s less than 10%. That doesn’t sound like American technology is stopping Hamas? No wonder the flow of weapons into Gaza doesn’t stop.
