Palestinians flood streets to witness their history being made
September 21, 2011 11:38
A real holiday feeling abounds in the West Bank city of Ramallah two days ahead the historic move by Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, who is to hand in to the UN General Assebmly his people’s bid for independence on Friday.
The US and Israel will soon reveal their true faces to the world as they crush the hopes of the Palestinians to be recognized as human beings by the UN. Israel can be extremely vicious when she is angered. Let's not forget that back in 1967 the Israelis attacked the USS Liberty, an American ship, killing 34 young sailors and wounding over 170. Nor, will Turkey ever forget the Israeli murder of 9 Turks on a ship sailing peacefully at night in international waters. If Israel attacks her own benefactor and friend when angered, what will she do to the Palestinian people demanding to live free of Israeli oppression? These are trying times for the Palestinian people who the United States of America, the self-proclaimed great "Champion of Human Rights", has deliberately ignored, while loudly championing the rights of the Libyan, Syrian, Egyptian, Iranian peoples. The US is militarily supporting the Libyan rebels today, while not even raising a single voice in support of the Palestinian people seeking UN recognition. All the US does is threaten the poor Palestinian people with reprisals if they continue to pursue UN recognition. A true Champion of Human Rights does not behave in such a manner. Stand tall and proud America, and show the world that you really are the great "Champion of Human Rights" as you have so anointed yourself.
