If Colin Powell Could Meet With War Criminal Ariel Sharon, He Must Meet Helpless Chairman Arafat!! (Deepak Sarkar, April 12,2002, www.kolki.com )

 

When Secretary of State Colin Powell can meet and shake hands with, Ariel Sharon,  the butcher of Lebanon(BBC) and destroyer of USS Liberty, he must meet with democratically elected Palestinian leader, Chairman Arafat, immediately and ask, not request, Israel withdraw its military ending Palestinian genocide/holocaust effective immediately.

 

The timing of each suicide bombing cast a doubtful shadow since the suicide bomber himself/herself is already dead shutting the door of truth forever.  Question arises, is Israel using Palestinian prisoners as suicide bombers remotely detonating them demonizing Arafat?  Is it to distract the world attention from Massacre inside Palestine, shooting of reporters including CNN, killing priests and doctors and destroying paramedics?

 

Israel under Sharon has shown least value for the human life, Palestinian, American or Israelis alike.  Sharon proved it time and again destroying USS Liberty in 1967 killing 34 USS marines and wounding 172.  Unpunished, he repeated his crime in 1982 massacring 20,000+ Palestinian refugee in Lebanon and occupied Palestine!

 

How can President Bush and Secretary of State Colin Powell can leave the fate of innocent, peace loving Palestinian in the hand of this Butcher of Lebanon!  Palestinian has suffered so much under the brutal and heinous Israeli occupying forces along with many international peace keepers, human rights activists, journalists and medical service representatives.

 

Israel has been justifying 35 years of occupation ignoring all UN resolutions and international good wills obtaining unconditional and unquestionable financial and military support from US Governments.  Israeli military has been killing, Burying and torturing Palestinians keeping all foreign journalists, including CNN away – as Colin Powell meets smiling cold blooded murderer Ariel Sharon.

 

Its time that US government, the only remaining super power, takes the sides of the weak and vulnerable Palestinians saving them from the brutality of mighty Israeli occupying forces.  God bless Secretary Of State Colin Powel to make this brave and just decision reopening the dialog initiated by honorable Ex-President Clinton!
