Israel: The World's Ugliest State

WJ | 07.10.2003 04:00

The question of who controls whom in Washington has been spelt out loud and clear.



According to all indications, in the recent bombing of Syria, the target was not a terrorist base but a refugee camp! The territorial sovereignty of a country cannot be violated under any pretext. The action by the Israelis was nothing short of an act of war and should be treated as such.

This is not the first time Israel has acted in the manner of a regional bully. What seems to have emboldened them is the fact that the country has been allowed to literally get away with murder and state terrorism. The idea that the United States is capable of taking action to restrain Israel is a joke. The tail does not wag the dog. What is clear is that the Israelis are indulging in this sort of aggression in order to provoke conflict with neighbours.

They have flouted one UN resolution after the other. At the helm of affairs in Israel is Ariel Sharon, whose track record is that of a warmonger. He should actually be standing in front of a war crime tribunal for his role in the massacre in Palestinian refugees camps in Lebanon. Instead he is directing armed incursions inside neighbouring countries, apparently with the blessing of boy George in Washington. Obviously these incursions are part of a deep-rooted conspiracy of the Israelis to destabilise the region and reap the benefits. If any country can be termed a rogue state, it is Israel

That is why we govern Basra?

The rubbish is not just Israel.
Do not forget the UK especially if you are in the UK!

do you honestly believe this attack is another sharon one-man show? he might think he can play freely in his palestinian backyard, but even the israeli government knows it cannot bomb syria without stirring up regional power games.

surely the us government knew about this attack beforehand. israel has been in a twisted relationship with the us for a long time. both governments need each other and i think are often unsure who is leading or following who. attacking syria has set off a whole new dynamic in the current crisis. a dynamic that fits in very nicely (too nicely...) with the west's imperialistic operations in the region. israel's current government is indeed a very ugly one, but it is naive and dangerous to think they can be so on their own.

ps. careful with the pictures too, you are threading a thin line....

Treading? the line has already been crossed. When are the administrators going to delete this blatant anti-semitic filth?
