Richard Sudan March 28, 2012. The rhetoric that has come to characterize the Israel/Palestine debate exploits the emotion of one crime to justify another. It is vital to remember that one life from either side is not worth less than the other. There are several human rights abuses taking place in Palestine, acknowledged to be illegal according to international law-all underpinned by a blatant disregard of that law. Nearly two weeks ago, the UN produced a report strongly condemning the state of Israel’s systematic discrimination of Palestinians. It was also announced yesterday that Israel’s right-wing government has now decided to turn its back on UN human rights council entirely. (via Fatima and Ahmed’s Son: Hana Shalabi is Dying to Live)
