First the Fascist state of Israel bombed Gaza, then the West Bank, Yemen and now Syria. Who next? Iran, Serbia, Turkey. WE MUST STOP THESE MAD PERSONS OR THEY WILL, INDEED THEY ARE, DRIVING THE WORLD TO NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION.
When is the United Nations Security Council and the General Assembly going to make clear to these mad men and women of Israel that they must stop the policy of mass slaughter as that pursued by Fascists of Germany against Socialist, Communists and Jews. I remember speaking at a meeting with Pastor Martin Niemoller, whose words are featured on the United States Holocaust Memorial. It's time the United States President, its Senate and House of Representatives read those historic words and then think why is the USA supporting the mass killings by Israel.
"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak ot because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak for me."
For his opposition to the Nazis' state control of the churches, Niemoller was imprisoned in Sachtenhausen and Dachau concentration camps from 1938 to 1945. He became an anti-war activist and Viec-chair of the War Resistance International for 1966. He was a committed campaigner for Nuclear Disarmament.
