The Security Council demanded that Israel receive a delegation to investigate the tragedy on the Temple Mount.
The
resolution made no mention of the fact that the incident stemmed from
the throwing of stones, rocks and iron bars on Jews who came to pray and
celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles near the Wailing Wall. Why, the
resolution refers to the place in its Moslem definition, not mentioning
its position to the Jewish religion. Yes, the Secretary of State did say
that the resolution condemned the attack on the Jews. Where? Why is
there no word about the PLO's incitement of its supporters to kill Jews
with knives?
One of the initiators of the condemnation is,
of course, Syria. Why didn’t the Security Council condemn Syria for its
recent activities in Lebanon where Syrian soldiers murdered, raped and
robbed Christians? No word was written about the killing of the
Shamun family. The Security Council managed to unite against Iraq
because all the more influential Arab countries supported it. Just as
Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the UAE did not care about Lebanon, neither does
the Security Council.
However, when these influential
Arab countries supported an attack on Iraq, The Security Council
succeeded. Moreover, when did the whole Arab World unite?
When Zionism was determined racism. Now, once again, they unite when the Arab countries demand the Investigating delegation.
I
would have assumed that the Western World would see to it that the
United Nations plays a more just role. It did not. That is why Syria is
never attended to? Zionism is racism, and Iraq is condemned because the
Arabs so desired.
