THE Israeli bombardment has killed more than 600 Palestinians in less than two weeks. Palestine is bleeding once again with no signs of the Zionist aggression abating.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon decided to visit Israel instead of Palestine. During his visit, instead of condemning Israel’s attacks and killing of unarmed Palestinians, he chose to condemn Hamas for firing rockets into Israeli territory. Is it not a sick joke asking the victims of aggression to stop the aggression? Where is his conscience?
Ban Ki-moon needs to be strongly criticised his conduct. He has compromised the UN and its mission.
The Muslim ummah’s meek response has further emboldened the Israeli hounds. The insanity unleashed by the Zionist state must be resisted. The world must unite against Israel’s aggression.
