Statement of the Afro-Asian People's Democratic Islamic Congress:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
True to its political creed, the Zionist state uses both real and fabricated incidents in order to advance its expansionist aims.
Yesterday's Jerusalem bombing, however, has shown that all their strategy of intimidation, land grabbing and continued aggression is able to achieve is further escalation and, in its tow, a deterioration of their own inner security.
Israel's vicious war against Palestine's civilian population has revived a feature of the Mid-East conflict that had been overcome almost a decade ago.
It should be clear to all of us that no one has anything to gain from a further escalation. This is not in the interest of Palestine nor is it in the interest of the Israeli civilian population. Yet, it is the direct and inevitable result of the Zionist state's policies of ethnic cleansing, occupation, illegal land annexation and sustained merciless bomb raids on a people who, logistically, are in no position to defend themselves.
We wish to make it clear that we deeply regret every loss of life, regardless on which side. Every life lost is a wound in the face of the world. It is a possibility un-lived, a hope extinguished, a unique potential wasted. We are and have always been for an end to the bloodshed, for a rapprochement of our two peoples and for a political understanding between them beyond the war propaganda of the Zionist leaders and the power greed of the two warring factions of the PA. But we also wish to make it clear that the state of Israel, by its actions, bears the full moral responsibility for the Jerusalem attack. And we wish to tell the Israeli population in all frankness that their true enemy is not us but the corrupt and ruthless apparatus of the Zionist regime.
This apparatus, who, against its often repeated propagandist mantra, has proven in numerous cases that in pursuing its power-political designs it is as indifferent to Jewish lives as it is to Palestinian ones, is covering the road to peace with mines. The only way to make this road safe is to defuse them by democratic revolutionary action of the people.
Let us understand that if both peoples realise their true interests and are standing up for them against the machinations of a self-serving and inhuman regime a comprehensive solution of the present conflict will come naturally, as a logical result.
Against Mahmoud Abbas' condemnation of the Jerusalem attack, we wish to ask where is Netanyahu's condemnation of the Gaza raids? You reap what you sow. As long as the Israeli government does not condemn the Gaza raids (which are a thousand times more lethal than anything that happened in Jerusalem), the Afro-Asian People's Democratic Islamic Congress refuses to condemn the Jerusalem attack.
