I am on my way to the USA for 5 days to give talks in DC and Boston and I
can't wait to go back to my beloved but suffering Palestine. Just before we
left I paid respect to family of Muataz Zawahreh (a cousin of one of my
master students at Bethlehem University). I dread further losses in the
coming days.

Since October 1, 2015 when Israeli racists started storming Al-Aqsa mosque
compound, 32 Palestinian youth including 8 children were killed and 1300
Palestinians (one third of them children were injured). Seven Israelis were
killed and dozens reported injured (none children). In compliance with
Zionist masters and due to few... Arabs bothering to act, most Western media
ignore reality and speak the classic Zionist mythology that labels all
resistance y terrorism and that only hopes for calm (but not freedom). It
also ignores the systematic state terrorism inflicted every day for seven
decades by a rogue colonial apartheid state on the “unwanted” natives.We
Palestinians have always called for justice and coexistence with full human
rights. Now John Kerry representing Israel wants to come to calm things
down. But the USA government is the reason for this mayhem as you fund and
directly support the colonizers. People resist colonization. Only when you
stop funding and arming and shielding Israel from International law, only
then people can listen to you. The reason billions are sent to Israel is
because of a Zionist lobby that intimidates and in many cases buys support
from a compliant politicians thus putting Zionist interests ahead of US
public interest.

A Reuters correspondent observed Israeli undercover agents disguised as
Palestinian youths inciting violence. He’s backed up by video evidence. One
video shows an Israeli undercover agent apparently firing a pistol into the
leg of a Palestinian at point blank range.
