MORE ABOUT THE 50th "ANNIVERSARY" YEAR
"The people from Stern and Irgun (Ed.- right-wing precursors of
today's Likud party in Israel) went rushing from house to house
shooting, slaughtering, killing, looting, with quite a lot of disorder. Arab men
were taken to an old quarry between Givat Shaul and Deir Yassin. They lined them up with
their backs to the wall of the quarry and shot them all."
ISN'T IT TIME YET FOR REPARATIONS?
MER - Washington - 18 April:
These are not the words of victims or third-parties. This is the direct testimony of an
Israeli soldier, Meir Pail, who was actually there in 1948. How ironic that today
the site of the former Palestinian village of Deir Yassin in an area now part of Jewish
Jerusalem is home to the Kfar Shaul Mental Health Center -- no Palestinians...just Jews --
and that not far away is Israel's Holocaust Museum which makes no mention of the
Palestinian "nakba", the "catastrophe".
