World fed up with Israel crimes against Palestinians: Scholar
Press TV has interviewed Sara Marusek, scholar and activist from London, and Lawrence Korb, former assistant to US secretary of defense from Washington, to discuss a recent report by the UN Human Rights Council on Israeli atrocities against civilians in Gaza during the 2014 war on the Palestinian enclave.
Marusek says the UN Human Rights Council’s report shows the global community has lost its patience on the regime’s transgression of international regulations and the United States’ all-out support for the entity.
The Gaza people are still suffering from the destruction of last summer’s war, says Marusek, adding that the international community is fed up with standing by and watching the hardships that the Palestinians are facing because of the Israeli blockade on their land and the regime’s acts of aggression.
The United Nations should respect Palestinian rights and take real steps in dealing with the Israelis, she maintains.
The scholar rejects as “unfair” the claims that Palestinians provoked Israel to attack Gaza, saying there is no good reason for the residents of a besieged and impoverished territory to do so.
For his part, Korb argues the Israeli regime was provoked to wage a war on the Gaza Strip and kill Palestinian civilians.
