Palestine appeals for Nigeria's involvement in Mideast peace

Palestine appeals for Nigeria's involvement in Mideast peace

Postby Richard Akindele » Mon Aug 21, 2006 5:03 pm

The Palestinian Ambassador to Nigeria Azmi Al Daqqa at the weekend appealed to Nigeria to be involved in the peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestine crisis.

Al Daqqa told reporters in the capital Abuja that the appeal became necessary because Nigeria had "significant weight both regionally and internationally."

"In addition, Nigeria has good relations with both Palestinians and Israelis, so its involvement in the efforts to bring both parties to the negotiating table is very important," he added.

Al Daqqa said Palestinians were suffering because of the continued Israeli occupation of their land, adding that the only way to end the suffering was to prevail on Israel to vacate the occupied territories.

The ambassador said 10,000 Palestinians were currently in Israeli jails and some of them had spent more than two decades in jails.

Of the number, he said, 450 were under 18 and 250 women, reminding the international community of the suffering of the families of the jailed Palestinians.

He said it was the responsibility of the international community to intervene "to stop aggression against the Palestinian people."

Referring to the Israeli soldiers captured by the Palestinian militant group, the ambassador said "our view is that they should be released on political and humanitarian grounds."

He said the Palestinian Authority condemned the killing of civilians, whether by Palestinians or Israelis, adding "We condemn all forms of terrorism, including state terrorism."

The situation in Gaza, he said, had deteriorated further since January, due to "Israeli aggression and human right violation."

He said Israel had not withdrawn from Gaza because it was still in control of the border crossing into Gaza and had imposed restriction on movement of goods and persons.

"Our opinion is that any Israeli withdrawal should be through negotiation and not by unilateral action, because unilateral action will not lead to a solution," he said, adding "I believe the Palestinians' choice must be respected, while Hamas must respect all the agreement signed by the Palestinian Authority, which calls for a two-state solution."

"I don't believe the Palestinian people should suffer for their choice. The international community should resume their financial aid to the people to avoid the ongoing humanitarian crisis," he said.

Do not believe the lies

Postby Richard Akindele » Mon Aug 21, 2006 5:54 pm

Nigeria, listen to me very carefully, do not get involved with Palestinians and the middle east conflict.

Anybody who knows the history of these people is aware of the fact that they don't understand what the word [b]peace[/b] means.

Unless you want to import terrorism into Nigeria, do not involve yourself in religious conflicts, particularly those involving heartless, ruthless middle-east terrorists. We have our own religious troubles emanating from our northern brothers. Do not make it worse.

Do you remember the story of Yasser Arafat? The UN couldn't get him to implement UN resolutions. It was empty promises, and deceits all the way from him. America would give money to the Palestinians to try to pacify them into stopping the conflicts, but Arafat simply pocketed the money, and found a way to start up more trouble for yet more money. In the end he died a very wealthy man as a result. Arafat's personal wealth was estimated at about $US11 billion.

The Palestinians claimed that they were fighting because Israel was occupying their land (Gaza strip and the West Bank), and that if that land was given back, every hostility from the Palestinians (i.e. kid suicide bombers against Israel) would seize. In the year 2000, under pressure from the USA and the UN, Israel reluctantly withdrew from Gaza. Since then, Israel has seen nothing but increased attacks from Islamic fascists such as Hamaz, Hezbollah, Palestinian suicide bombers, etc.

Muslim nations in the middle east do not recognize Israel as a sovereign country. Iran has even publicly called for a total annihilation of Israel. Why? As we all know, Iran is pursuing nuclear technology. Coincidence? No way. Clearly such nuclear technology is for a nuclear bomb to use against Israel. Is this the conflict Nigeria wants to get involved in?

Even if all that Nigeria does is send money to Palestinians, we know how that money is going to be used. It'd be used to build more bombs, or it'd be embezzled by Palestinian leaders.

The bottomline is, muslim fundamentalists in the middle east don't want peace with Israel, or with anybody who doesn't share their archaic idealogy. They simply want the war to expand. So, them approaching Nigeria to get involved in the war, is nothing more than a PR game and propaganda. The same game they've played for decades.

Nigeria's involvement wouldn't be about trying to broker a lasting peace between Israel and its enemies. Rather, the Palestinians merely want to able to say, hey look, Nigeria is on the side of Palestine on this jihad.

Nigeria has it's problems. Please do not add to it by stepping into the volatile Middle east conflict.

Israel never strikes unless provoked. So, if Palestine and the other terrorists want peace, all they have to do is lay down their arms, stop their pre-emptive attacks against Israel, and recognize Israel's right to exist. I guarantee you, if that happens, there would be instant peace in the region.

The problem with Nigeria is that we don't understand the economics of involvement. We get involved in conflicts we will not benefit from. Why will the U.S. get involved in a show where there is nothing to benefit therefrom economically. What can Nigeria benefit from a peaceful Israel/Lebanon peace. None at all. Except that our officials involved will benefit from the related estacode.

Do not get involved.

Principal, I agree with you about Nigeria having nothing to gain. But even beyond that, Nigeria could simply give money to Palestinians as a form of humanitarian aid. But, that would be interpreted by Palestinians as an endorsement of Jihad against Israel. If Nigeria wants to play neutral party, then we have to give as much money to Israel, as we do Palestine.

America was providing aid to Palestine, until a realisation that the aid was being used to fund more terrorism against Israel, and ultimately against the International community through groups such as Hamas, Al Qaeda, etc.

The war between Israel and Palestine dates back a very long time. The most powerful nations in the world have not been able mitigate it. So, Nigeria's involvement would do nothing more than siphon badly needed funds away from Nigeria, into the hands of war mongers.

Should Nigeria give money to people who are looking to buy guns, and make bombs for the purpose of killing Israelis?

Palestinians and the other terrorists can stop the war anytime they want to. And I suggest they do just that, rather than beg for crumbs from Nigeria.

Why was $2million a month sent to Arafat's wife?

Arafat's wife at centre of money-laundering inquiry
February 13, 2004

Suha Arafat, the wife of the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat.

French public prosecutors have opened a money-laundering inquiry into suspect transfers totalling about 9 million euros ($15 million) into Paris bank accounts held by the wife of the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat.
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/02/ ... m=storyrhs

-----------------------------

There are tons of these kinds of facts online if you do a quick search.

Yasser Arafat's wife lives in Paris today, owning huge mansions all over France.

Where did she get the money to build those mansions?

She has billions of dollars in French banks. Where did she get that kind of dough?

Is this the same people Nigeria wants to now sent more money to?

Palestinian leaders are more corrupt than Nigerian leaders. So, please do not throw our money away by giving it to Palestinian thieves. Nigerians at home need help. We have the money, so for God's sakes, help your own people.

What do you think of Obadiah Shoher's views on the Middle...

Postby AlexZello » Thu Feb 21, 2008 9:04 pm

What do you think of Obadiah Shoher's views on the Middle East conflict? One can argue, of course, that Shoher is ultra-right, but his followers are far from being a marginal group. Also, he rejects Jewish moralistic reasoning - that's alone is highly unusual for the Israeli right. And he is very influential here in Israel. So what do you think? uh, here's the site in question: [url=http://samsonblinded.org/blog]Middle East conflict[/url]

I'm not familiar with who Obadiah Shoher is. I'm a political observer, but I don't necessarily follow Israeli internal affairs as closely as you do.

My opposition to Palestinian style of fighting is based on their unwillingness to come to a concession with Israel. Every seize fire ever reached, either negotiated by the UN or any country, was ultimately broken by the Palestinians.

The argument is one nobody can win when it comes to Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Hence, Nigeria is best staying out of it.

military intervention cant bring peace between the Israelis and Palestinian but peaceful negotiations and resolutions will.
Let the palestinians and their militants stop their incessant attacks on the Israelis. the palestinians are the ones who provoke the Israeli attacks. If the palestinians think the Israelis are in possession of their belongings, let them resolve the issue amicably. Attacking the Israelis can never bring the lasting solution instead it will cause more brutal return attacks from the Israelis.
As for the ones concerning the Nigerian intervention, i think Nigeria will want to send some of her soldiers to an "unmeaningful" death if she sticks out her neck into their conflicts.
Nigeria have their unresolved niger delta militancy issue and multiples of other developmental paralyses to try and tackle.
well it wont be surprising if the Nigerian authorities heed the call of the Palestinian after all "Nigeria's charity begins abroad" :roll:
