ex Cabinet Minister Clare Short was criticised today
over the Parliament's invitation of Hamas leader
Khaled Meshaal to address MPs and Peers via a
video-link up. Needless to say, Short's initiative is
the right thing at the very right time.
However, Israel's response must be noted. It is either
pathetic or amusing. I let the reader decide.
Israel's ambassador accused those behind the event of
delivering a "slap in the face" to moderate
Palestinians "seeking a peaceful solution". One my
note that "slap in the face" is the most the
Palestinians can wish for as far as Israelis are
concerned.
Noticeably, Israel used the most devastating tactics
to punish the Palestinians including starvation, WMDs,
White Phosphorous and other methods. A "slap in the
face", is no doubt, a move in the right direction.
Israel also accused former Labour Cabinet Minister Ms
Short of "undermining the Middle East peace process."
This is not a joke. The Israelis who just a month ago
performed a merciless genocidal campaign in Gaza, dare
criticise an attempt for an open dialogue as an
assault on the "peace process."
Ambassador Ron Prosor said: "Hamas's charter states
categorically that: 'There is no solution for the
Palestinian question except through jihad'."
I wonder, what is Prosor's interpretation of the
"Israeli solution" because as far as we can see, it is
no less than an Old Testament murderous plundering of
the Palestinians and their land. It would be
interesting to hear what Ambassador Prosor's
interpretation of Jihad is. Because as far as
scholarship is concerned (as opposed to Bush's take on
the subject) Jihad is realised as "striving to live a
moral and virtuous life, spreading and defending Islam
as well as fighting injustice and oppression." Jihad
is indeed a beautiful and peaceful concept, unlike the
current barbarian manifestation of Jewish nationalism.
"Clare Short and Lord Alderdice," said Prosor, "offer
no attempt to persuade Hamas to change its policies of
missiles and murder. Instead, they attempt to sanitise,
legitimise and reward an organisation and ideology
that remains committed to violence, bloodshed and the
destruction of a sovereign state."
In psychoanalysis a statement such as this is
interpreted as banal projection. Ambassador Prosor is
basically projecting on the Hamas everything Israel
and Zionism is practically engaged with i.e.,
violence, bloodshed and the destruction.
"The British parliament is an icon of the democratic
values to which Hamas is violently opposed," said the
amusing Ambassador. Someone should remind the Israeli
diplomat that the Hamas was actually democratically
elected.
Ambassador Prosor learned from Herzl that arse licking
is always a good way to promote Zionist interests. "It
is ironic that the mother of all parliaments should
play host to a leader who seeks to subjugate his
people with a theocratic nightmare based on the
oppression, torture and execution of religious and
political opponents."
Once and for all, someone should remind those pathetic
Israelis that they are actually the ones who went back
to their alleged "biblical promised land" and formed a
racist Jewish only state. Not only they are
theocratic, they are actually a Fascist theocracy,
which is actually a unique concept.
"It seems that for Clare Short and her friends, the
murder of Israeli civilians and a willingness to march
to Ahmadinejad's tune are the hallmarks of Palestinian
`resistance' authenticity."
I must admit that very much like Clare Short, I
interpret Palestinian resistance as a humanist call.
As if this is not enough, being a musician with a
considerable reputation, I do develop more and more
sympathy to Ahmadinejad's different tunes. Especially
his latest speech in Geneva is like music to my ears.
However, after the embarrassing and stupid sheepish
behaviour exhibited by British diplomats in Geneva
just two days ago, a voice of reason was heard in the
Parliament. A spokeswoman for the Commons authorities
said the meeting would go ahead as "freedom of speech"
issues were involved. Seemingly, Zionist terror didn't
manage to dismantle completely most fundamental
Western assets. |
