AMMAN, (PIC)-- Israel directly killed more than 1,300 Palestinian children since the onset of the millennium, a UN official said in a new report.
They shot those children dead those children during direct military operations, said Richard Falk, the UN's Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories.
He said seventeen Palestinian children were killed in 2010 alone while trying to gather gravel to help rebuild their families' homes destroyed during the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip. Israel has prohibited the entry of building materials during its blockade of the tiny enclave.
Quds Press quote Falk as saying during a press conference he held in the Jordanian capital Amman on Monday that Israel has some 226 Palestinian children detained in its prisons, held without specific charges.
Falk, who Israel has banned from entry into the Palestinian territories, said that the continued Gaza siege and escalation of Israeli abuses has led to major deterioration in the human rights situation of the children's mental and physical health in the Strip.
He called on the UN to exert efforts to force Israel to bind by international laws.
He said that he holds that contradiction in Israel's application of international law signals systematic racial discrimination against the Palestinians.
JENIN, (PIC)-- A fresh statement by the Palestinian Prisoner Society declares 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 the worst yet in terms of the Israeli prison authority's medical neglect of Palestinian detainees.
Around 20 of those prisoners have been diagnosed with cancer, around 88 with diabetes and another 25 have had kidney failures.
Additionally, some 20 prisones have motor disabilities, and there are currently ten who live permanently in the Ramle hospital. They include three who suffer partial paralysis.
The PPS highlighted the recent death of prisoner Saytan al-Wali of Golan Heights, 45. He suffered from a kidney tumor that required an immediate prison release in order to get treatment. But the Israeli prison authority failed to respond.
The statement says that Palestinians held in Israeli occupation prisons are suffering from various illnesses, but all have not received proper health care because of the prison system's policy of medical neglect.
Delays in providing suitable medication and the correct amount are normal for the Israeli occupation authorities, said PPS chairman Raghib Abu Diak, adding that the medical neglect also includes not performing surgery at the needed time and not providing specialists for the varied illnesses of those held in the prison.
Abu Diak pointed out a shortage of doctors and the Israeli government's disregard of prisoner rights by choosing whoever they see fit as a doctor, as the prison medical staff has been unable to diagnose some of the diseases.
He emphasized the need for prisoners to receive regular check-ups, especially those who have previously been ill.
CAIRO, (PIC)-- Taher al-Nunu, spokesman for the Palestinian Government in Gaza, has said that Israel's recent aggression was aimed at foiling Hamas's efforts to reconcile with rival Fatah and at measuring the response from Egypt and the Arabs as the situation in the region unfolds.
”[Israel] was eager to single out Gaza in light of the region being preoccupied with operations for liberation from regimes and with successive popular revolutions,” Nunu told the Palestinian Information Center.
He pointed out that, as the Israeli aggression came to its conclusion, Israel failed to achieve its objectives, and the Palestinians earned a stronger sense of unity and rallying around the resistance program, and the Arabs became more aware of Israel's schemes.
”The raising of the Palestinian flag in Tahrir Square in front of the Israeli embassy in Cairo was a key reason why the aggression on the Gaza Strip stopped, after it became clear to the Israeli administration that Egypt, its leadership and people, reject any Israeli aggression on Gaza.”
Nunu emphasized the role played by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry in curbing the attacks, as well as the decision made by the Arab League asking the UN Security Council for a no-fly zone over Gaza.
Concerning national reconciliation, Nunu said Prime Minister Ismail Haneyya's initiative to meet with Abbas is still in effect. He said that the government in Gaza is not against Abbas visiting the Strip, but he said, ”the visit must be preceded by arrangements in order to be successful”.
He went on to say that the government has called for talks with Fatah based on a deadline before Abbas's visit to Gaza.
He added that talks will start from where they left off, saying that issues concerning the Palestine Liberation Organization and the government's political program are the two main topics that must be resolved during talks.
He emphasized that Haneyya has exerted major efforts towards Palestinian reconciliation, and pointed out that the chances for achieving reconciliation are more now than ever before.
”Mahmoud Abbas has no choice but to reconcile and adhere to the will of the Palestinians to end the split. And we hope that this is his choice,” Nunu said.
In case you missed it,
Pharaoh will deliver a domesticated Hamas. thus preyed the "Palestinian" Ziondit.
Mr. politburo chief: Iran has clout and is a regional power, so Obama has to deal with it. Also, Iran (under the right conditions) has been beneficial to the Empire, as in Iraq and Afghanistan, so Obama is trying to put the ayatollahs to good use. Syria has some influence (especially in Lebanon) and Obama is trying to divide and conquer, by moving Syria away from Iran. But Hamas, Mr. politburo chief, regardless of how much "moderation" it shows, and how much begging it does, has no clout, and is safely caged in the Gaza concentration camp while Dayton destroys any presence it has left in the West Bank. By removing Iran and Syria from the equation, Hamas will be cut off and the plan is to destroy it or at least domesticate it, just as Arafat was domesticated and finally destroyed. You got that now, Mr. politburo chief?
After more than three years,
"Cairo is planning to receive Khaled Meshal, head of Hamas's Damascus-based political bureau. Meshal last departed Cairo more than a year ago, saying that neither he nor any other Hamas official would return to Egypt as long as Mubarak held the reins of power"
Hamas is still there to stay, where is Mubarak NOW??
Shalit is still there in Gaza, until Hamas conditions are met.
Mahmoud Abbas has no choice but to reconcile and adhere to the will of the Palestinians to end the split. In other words, the dialogue will deliver a domesticated Abbas
The Zionist asshole joined the counter revolution of Zionist Farid Al-Ghadri, Khaddam, Rifaat Assad, and Zionist Brotherhood, against corner stone of resistance axis.
