Answer to submitter. Sweden has a special responsibility to condemn abuse on Palestinians
David Feder praises the Swedish government in the conflict between Israel and Palestine. It consistently occupies the right position, he writes in a submitter.
It is a fragile support to lean on. A minority government completely dependent on the Swedish Democrats (SD), the party that flirts politically with Israel but where every third founder is linked to Nazism or fascism.
No one knows what the next Swedish position will be. Perhaps the Minister of Debt Benjamin Dousa (M) hears for his view that Israel deals with the Palestinians in Gaza « Terrible » and « inhuman ».
Swedish opinion must influence the government to act for an end to the war in Gaza. International aid organizations reports on forced displacementsabout dozen attacks with only children and women as victims, about journalists who are killed and if The unlikely destruction of the hospitals Without evidence for claims about command centers.
Israel has the right to defend himself against Hamas, but Israel does not have the right to fight against the Palestinian people. Information on war crimes is reflexively dismissed as Palestinian propaganda. But nowhere are they better documented than in Israel.
Historian Lee Mordechai at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has compiled a report of 176 pages With over 1,600 references on Israeli war crimes in Gaza for a year and a half.
Soldiers who served In Gaza has itself testified to the war crimesand in some cases even scraped and joked about them. In Israel it is known that Israeli soldiers in Gaza using Palestinians as human shields when looking for hidden bombs.
Sweden has a special responsibility to condemn and prevent these abuses against Palestinians, as our country has recognized Palestine, a decision the current government has not repealed.
I myself am an Israel friend since childhood. As a journalist and writer I have studied and described the Holocaust in Yiddish Culture Lithuania. I have been influenced by meetings with Jewish rabbis and with the old tribe’s Israeli politicians, such as Yosef Burg and Abba Eban.
Therefore, it is of course For me that Sweden must support the democratic opposition in Israel, who wants an immediate end to the war in Gaza.
We must support the hostages of the hostage. We have to support All of them which faithfully goes out and protests against continued war. We must Support the cultural workers which requires an end to the war, as it undermines Israel’s basic democratic values.
