Israel is happy to exterminate Palestinians

Thursday 18 November 2010

Phil Katz (M Star November 10) writes about all things except the matter in hand - the brutal and genocidal colonisation of Palestine.

He claims the British did not visit a "final solution" on the Irish.

No, they just starved many of them to death.

But regarding Palestine I would urge Mr Katz to turn to his history books.

Long before the nazis coined the phrase "final solution" the zionists at their 1897 Basel conference made no secret of what they had in mind for the Palestinians.

Had they had the means they would by their own admission have finished them off in 1948.

What the zionists are presently undertaking is slow strangulation.

As for Mr Katz's claim that a progressive movement exists in Israel, let me say just this: there are only two mainstream political persuasions in Israel, the right and the far right.

Those who tell it as it is are at best vilified and ostracised and at worst forced to leave.

Finally Mr Katz obviously has a problem with the term "final solution."

Fine by me - shall we call it a "holocaust" instead?
