Archbishop Desmond Tutu on Israeli war crimes and more land grabbing
Story on Archbishop Desmond Tutu's scathing report on Israels war crimes in Gaza in 2006.
In his report the Archbishop says:
This story discusses, yet more land grabbing by the Israelis, some excerpts:
In his report the Archbishop says:
(Source: BBC News, Sept 18, 2008)"I think the West, quite rightly, is feeling contrite, penitent for its awful connivance with the Holocaust," Archbishop Tutu said.
"The West is penitent, the penance is being paid by the Palestinians."
This story discusses, yet more land grabbing by the Israelis, some excerpts:
B'Tselem calculates that the annexation of the land has more than doubled the size of the settlements, with Palestinians, who still own the land, denied access.
...
It says that the unofficial closing off of land to Palestinians, around these settlements, has been going on for 30 years.But what has been happening more recently is the Israeli military formalising the expansion of these settlements through what are called "special security areas".
The group has calculated that this has more than doubled the overall area of the settlements.
Palestinians, despite privately owning half the land, now have no access to it.

Rules of Warfare in the New World Order
Received this email which fits nicely here as well:
Rules of Warfare in the New World Order
Rule # 1: It is always the Arabs that attack first, and it's always Israel that defends itself. This is called "Retaliation" .
Rule # 2: The Arabs, whether Palestinians or Lebanese, are not allowed to kill Israelis, either soldiers or civilians. This is called "Terrorism".
Rule # 3: Israel has the right to kill Arab civilians. This is called "Self-Defense". If the dead Arabs are by the hundreds, "Collateral Damage".
Rule # 4: When Israel kills too many civilians, the Western world calls for restraint. This is called the "Reaction of the International Community".
Rule # 5: Palestinians and Lebanese do not have the right to capture Israeli military, not even a limited number, not even 1. This is called "Kidnapping" .
Rule # 6: Israel has the right to capture as many Palestinians as they want. (Palestinians: around 10000 to date, 300 of which are children; Lebanese: 1000 to date, being held without trial.) There is no limit; there is no need for proof of guilt or trial. This is called "War on Terrorism".
Rule # 7: When you say "Hezbollah", always be sure to add "supported by Syria and Iran". This is called "Axis of Evil".
Rule # 8: When you say "Israel ", never say "supported by the USA, the UK and other European countries", for people (God forbid) might believe this is not an equal conflict. This is called "Helping our Friends".
Rule # 9: When it comes to Israel, don't mention the words "occupied territories", "UN resolutions" or "Geneva conventions". This could distress the audience and is called "Anti-Semitism".
Rule # 10: Israelis speak better English than Arabs. This is why you let them speak out as much as possible, so that they can explain Rules 1 through 9. This is called "Fair and Balanced".
