| 'Please keep us all posted on the Bangladeshi political scene'. I am sure you are top of Human Rights Watch's accusation that 'Israel is committing "acts of genocide in Gaza" by deliberately depriving Palestinian civilians there of adequate access to water'. - BBC News'. Genocide ? And did you read in the MailOnline a report of a visit to Germany by one of their columnists ? - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14214497/German-Christmas-market-Syrian-refugees.html 'For in mid-afternoon on Sunday December 8, this snug ambiance – what the Germans like to call 'Gemütlichkeit' - was suddenly disrupted by chants of 'Allahu Akbar'. Out of nowhere came a large, boisterous crowd – mostly Arabic, almost entirely young men – who barged past the fairground rides and on down the narrow pathways between the market traders with their jewellery displays, gingerbread houses and puppet shows. On and on they came for more than an hour, chanting unfamiliar slogans and waving flags and banners. It was in Essen's Christmas market, much like this one in Cologne visited by Robert, where the friendly ambience was suddenly disrupted by Syrian migrants chanting 'Allahu Akbar' Though the event turned out to be entirely peaceful, it was woefully ill-judged. Germans have not forgotten that it was at a Christmas market in Berlin where a failed asylum-seeker from Tunisia drove a stolen truck into the crowds in 2016. He left 13 dead and 56 injured. Tonight's atrocity seems similar'. And what about the situation reported in the Guardian ? 'In the DRC, rape is rife. How can women recover in a war zone? Near the eastern city of Goma, charities such as MSF are reporting rising numbers of refugees experiencing rape and torture'. And yet it is still Israel that gets all the condemnation. Why is that ? |
