UN Man Who Warned of Zionist Blockade Exposes Israeli Lies

Andrew Whitley is a spokesman for the UN in Palestine where he works for the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA).

Right: The UN's Andrew Whitley has warned of hunger and suffering because of the 18 month Israeli blockade of Gaza and has denied that Hamas Militants were in the UN School bombed by Israel. How long before Mossad find some dirt on - or worse - silence him?

Back in April 2007 he warned of trouble ahead, because since the 2006 elections, the Gaza Strip has been under an economic blockade (an act of war in most country's books!).

Whitley painted a picture of a people under siege, and suffering like we could never believe:

“We keep (including the World Food Program) these people alive these days and the degree they have become dependent on the international community for lack of resources is troubling indeed,” Whitley said.

In other words the people of Gaza were being deliberately starved, by an Israeli blockade, because of their choice in free elections.

How would we feel if the EU blockaded our ports and stopped all imports/exports because we voted for an anti-EU government (e.g. UKIP, the BNP, or even a Eurosceptic Tory Party)?

Wouldn't we view that as a crime? An act of war even?

The Palestinians have been suffering like this for years! And where are the "democrats" in the UK to defend the rights of the Palestinians to vote in Hamas? Or to live without the collective punishment of a blockade with starvation and suffering?

Whoooosh!

That sound was the tumbleweed blowing through these here parts!

The professional political class have been condemned by their silence. Their sin of omission has ratcheted up the pressure in a powder keg situation, manouevered into place by a criminal elite in Tel Aviv and Washington DC.

As the news report below explains:

Although the Israeli Army established checkpoints in the name of security, “I would argue the means to tackle these threats…leads to a sense of nihilism, pent up anger that …brings about the results they are trying to avoid,” Whitley explained.

In other words after the forced partition of their lands, the erection of a wall to dwarf the accursed Berlin Wall, and a forced starvation and mass unemployment because of the way they chose to vote, the Palestinians now face mass murder and the illegal use of phosphorous and cluster bombs by a State that has done everything it can to ratchet up the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Now we have the Israelis, who have brought about this series of events by denying the Palestinian people the right to choose their own government, and launching an illegal and warlike blockade of an (allegedly) sovereign territory, telling outright lies about a bombing of a UN school compound in Gaza.

To quote Mr. Whitley directly from yesterday's BBC Newsnight programme:

"[We have] No evidence... [of Hamas] militants inside the [school] compound, which has been used to shelter people from the area and we don't think that there was any fighting taking place actually from the school itself."

As with the illegal invasion of Lebanon and the attack on a UN outpost (killing two) by the Israeli army, we are witnessing war crimes carried out by a nuclear power with the direct backing of Zionist America.

During the invasion of Lebanon the attack on the UN post was almost a carbon copy of the bombing of the UN School in Gaza. Here's a snippet from a news report at the time (4th link below):

In his statement, Mr. Annan said that the “coordinated artillery and air attack” occurred despite personal assurances given to him by Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert that UN positions would be spared fire. The Secretary-General said the post, near the Lebanese town of Khiyam, was “long established and clearly marked.” [our emphasis].

It is clear that Israel, like it's Zionist bedfellow America has scant regard for international law and just bombs, shoots, bulldozes, tortures and ethnically cleanses whoever the hell it likes with impunity.

Now it's time for Israel to answer for its War Crimes... or are we to believe that only Octogenarian and Nonagenarian Germans and Anti-Communist East Europeans can be hounded to the grave for alleged "war crimes," whilst the invaders of Lebanon and Gaza go unpunished?

Some might say - anti-Semites to a man no doubt! - that this reeks of "one law for them and another law for us."

Still as babies are blown apart and parents left to wail in the streets as their innocent children die at the hands of an invading superpower we can all sit back and watch Anne Frank on BBC TV every night this week!

What a delicious sense of irony the BBC scheduler must have.
