PALESTINE SUFFERING 'shows Israel has forgotten its history'

The suffering inflicted by Israel on the Palestinian people shows that it has forgotten the Jewish scriptures, Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu said on Saturday.

"They have forgotten their own history. They have forgotten what their own prophets have said about our God," Tutu said in his opening address to the International Russell Tribunal on Palestine.

"We worship a God that is naturally biased in favour of the suffering, the underdog, those who are suffering underfoot ... God is always on the side of the oppressed. In the Holy Land, the Palestinian people are the ones suffering."

Tutu said it pained him that a people who went through great suffering could in turn cause others to suffer.

"There is a great deal of preventable suffering being caused by people who themselves suffered so deeply ... who have gone through a crucible of suffering.




"Israel has deprived millions of Palestinians of their liberty and property. It has perpetuated a system of gross racial discrimination and inequality. It has systematically incarcerated and tortured thousands of Palestinians, contrary to the rules of international law. It has, in particular, waged a war against a civilian population, in particular children.....Palestine is one of the great moral causes of our time.

"Nelson Mandela, 2001

Ben Gurion also warned in 1948 : "We must do everything to insure they ( the Palestinians) never do return." Assuring his fellow Zionists that Palestinians will never come back to their homes. "The old will die and the young will forget."

Nice music!

Any way time for my daily "death to arabs" comment.

By the way, there was never a Palestine state so your pathetic attempt of making one in 0:34 is sad. Even more than you.

Fuck Off from israel you are not welcome, go back to the other 22 state you have and destroy the civilization there. Shit, It's already destroyed.

***DEATH TO ARABS*** - my new signature, cute doesn't it?

There is no occupation. Jordan occupied the West Bank in a war of aggression in 1948. Israel took the land back in 1967 in a war of liberation. I will buy Israeli products by the dozens to give them as gifts. I recommend others do likewise. Since Norway enacted BDS, imports into Norway increased by 15%.

The best way to fight JIHAD and Islamofascism, support Israel. Google SULTAN KNISH! You Tube and Google: Mufti of Jerusalem & "The Naqba Narrative" from The Manhattan Institute. Case closed.
