Zmarł biskup Desmond Tutu - laureat pokojowej nagrody Nobla, wielki przeciwnik południowoafrykańskiego i izraelskiego apartheidu. Zainteresowanych postacią biskupa a szczególnie Jego ostrą krytyką polityki żydowskiej względem Palestyńczyków - odsyłam do podlinkowanego materiału na temat. "Archbishop Tutu was an outspoken critic of Israeli occupation in Palestine and the siege on Gaza. "I wish I could keep quiet about the plight of the Palestinians. I can't! The God who was there and showed that we should become free is the God described in the Scriptures as the same yesterday, today and forever," he told the Washington Post in 2013. He drew parallels between Israeli occupation and apartheid in South Africa. "What's being done to the Palestinians at checkpoints, for us, it's the kind of thing we experienced in South Africa."Tutu was to lead a UN fact-finding mission with Professor Christine Chinkin to investigate a November 2006 Israeli attack on Gaza's Beit Hanoun district that led to the deaths of 19 Palestinians, including seven children. Israel refused to grant Archbishop Tutu and Professor Chinkin authorisation to enter Gaza, but they were eventually able to travel to the besieged territory via Egypt. They met with survivors and eye-witnesses and produced a report to the Human Rights Council. In a May 2008 statement about his mission, the archbishop decried the Israeli siege on Gaza, in place since 2007, as "a gross violation of human rights". He also said the Israeli siege contradicted the Jewish and Christian scriptures". www.middle(*)-what-he-said-israel-palestine |
