US/ Israeli Genocide in Lebanon: open letter by former PM

Intro by Henk Ruyssenaars - foreign correspondent

FPF - August 7, 2006 - This open letter about the US/Israeli war machine's genocide in Lebanon was written a week ago: imagine how many more fellow human beings have been killed by those war criminals since then: in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, and Lebanon itself...

The creatures which are responsible* for the massacres - and that includes all their propagandists, the 'media brainwashers' without whom this never would have been possible - are not human and must be neutralized as soon as laws are valid again. Everywhere.

Any other country would have been sacked and 'bombed back to the Stone Age' as the US always does, but Israel does not care about UN resolutions. The US/Israeli war machine ignores all other countries in the UN. A list of UN Resolutions against "Israel" - Url.:  http://www.uscrusade.com/forum/config.pl/noframes/read/1372

What they do is serial killing on a global scale, which can never be accepted by any human being with decency.

The PNAC and cooperating 'crazies' in Washington are only the mortal top of the wave in a their terror tsunami, threatening to drown the world in blood, and the immense shame and guilt also befalls the cowardly collaborating 'Coalition of the Killing' and other brain dead mercenaries - of whatever nationality - doing the dirty work for the warmongers in many countries.

Don't they understand why the resistance hangs their Gestapo and will hang them too? Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/q83ny

One really wonders how those criminal characters think they ever can survive the growing hatred of the global population, the human beings they - for their own needs and goals - have maltreated and killed on this earth for such a long time. We others are 6.5 Billion and everywhere. Since this group does not respect conventions, laws of war or other human beings, they can not expect respect for human rights in return, and can not expect anything else but this - Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/jb56k

THE WAR CRIMINALS WILL SOON KNOW FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS...

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT BY SALIM EL HOSS

By Salim El Hoss, former prime minister of Lebanon

The Daily Star, August 3, 2006

Dear Mr. Bush,

We heard you express your regrets regarding the casualties of "Israel's" ravaging war against my country, Lebanon.

I hope you have been furnished with a true profile of the atrocities being perpetrated in my country. You pose as being at war with terrorism. Let me honestly tell you: Charity starts at home.

"ISRAEL" IS WANTONLY INDULGING IN THE MOST HORRENDOUS FORMS OF TERRORISM IN LEBANON: INDISCRIMINATELY KILLING INNOCENT CIVILIANS AT RANDOM; NOT SPARING CHILDREN, ELDERLY OR HANDICAPPED PEOPLE; DEMOLISHING BUILDINGS OVER THEIR RESIDENTS' HEADS; AND DESTROYING ALL INFRASTRUCTURE, ROADS, BRIDGES, WATER AND POWER ARTERIES, HARBORS, AIR STRIPS AND STORAGE FACILITIES.

Nothing moving on the highways is spared, not even ambulances, trucks, trailers, cars or even motorcycles, all in violation of the Geneva Conventions and human rights.

The displaced population has reached more than one fourth of the total population of my country - all suffering the harshest and most miserable of conditions.

THE VICTIMS INCLUDE THOUSANDS OF KILLED AND MAIMED.

IF THIS IS NOT TERRORISM, WHAT IS?

"Israel's" savage assault has been labeled retribution for Hizbullah's abduction of two Israeli soldiers.

This smacks of collective punishment, which constitutes a brazen violation of the Geneva Conventions and human rights. Furthermore, the alibi is far from plausible. The two Israeli soldiers were abducted for the express purpose of reaching a swap of hostages with "Israel". In fact, "Israel" had acceded more than once to such swaps in the past.

Why would a swap of prisoners be acceptable at one time and a taboo, rather a casus belli, at another? This created a conviction among the Lebanese that the sweeping assault against them was premeditated, and the abduction was only a tenuous excuse.

"ISRAEL" IS INDULGING IN TERRORISM AT ITS WORST, AT ITS UGLIEST, USING THE MOST LETHAL AND SOPHISTICATED WEAPONS YOU HAVE SUPPLIED THEM.

We the Lebanese are justified in seeing in "Israel" as a most atrocious terrorist power, and seeing in you a direct partner. Mr. President: You are indeed a terrorist practicing the worst variant of terrorism as you condone the annihilation of my country, precluding a cease-fire to be announced, supporting the aggression against my people politically and diplomatically and bolstering "Israel's" destructive arsenal with the most lethal weaponry.

MR. PRESIDENT: YOU ARE NOT FOOLING ANYBODY WITH YOUR ALLEGED WAR AGAINST TERRORISM. IN OUR PERSPECTIVE, YOU AND "ISRAEL" ARE THE MOST UNSCRUPULOUS TERRORISTS ON EARTH. IF YO U WANT TO FIGHT TERRORISM, WE SUGGEST THAT YOU START WITH YOUR ADMINISTRATION AND YOUR HIDEOUS ALLY, "ISRAEL".

You repeatedly claim that "Israel" is acting in self-defense. How preposterous! Self-defense on other people's occupied territory is tantamount to one thing: blatant aggression.

You call Hizbullah a terrorist organization. We call it a legitimate resistance movement. There would have been no military wing of Hizbullah if there had been no Lebanese territory under Israeli occupation, if there had been no Lebanese hostages languishing in Israeli jails, and if Lebanon had not been exposed to almost daily Israeli intrusions into its airspace and territorial waters, and to sporadic incursions into Lebanese land and bombardment of civilian targets.

You cannot eliminate a party by demolishing a whole country. This would have been achieved peacefully by "Israel" withdrawing from the land it occupies, releasing Lebanese prisoners, and desisting from further acts of aggression against Lebanon.

"ISRAEL" IS THE MOST HORRENDOUS TERRORIST POWER.

AND YOU, MR. PRESIDENT, ARE UNMISTAKABLY A DIRECT PARTNER, AND HENCE A STRAIGHT TERRORIST.
