Barghouthi: IOA embarking on biggest ever racial cleansing in Jerusalem
[ 27/04/2009 - 11:10 AM ]
RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- MP Dr. Mustafa Al-Barghouthi, the secretary general of the national initiative party, on Monday condemned the Zionist schemes and the policy of demolishing Palestinian homes in occupied Jerusalem.
Barghouthi, in a statement distributed to the media, said that Israel was carrying out the biggest ever racial cleansing campaign in occupied Jerusalem, describing it as the most serious ever since the city was occupied in 1967.
He charged that the Israeli policy of demolishing homes was one of the methods pursued to evacuate the city of its indigenous inhabitants.
The MP warned that occupied Jerusalem was in real danger in the reign of the new Israeli far-right government.
He proposed Palestinian moves on all levels to check the Israeli judaization of the holy city and to impose sanctions on Israel to force it to halt its settlement drive.
Efforts should be focused on exposing the government of Benjamin Netanyahu, which is pushing the region into confrontation with its denial of the Palestinian people's rights, Barghouthi underlined.
He urged all Palestinian parties to bypass marginal issues and to concentrate on the main question mainly confronting the Israeli occupation authority's' plots to liquidate the Palestinian national project. He called for the immediate restoration of national unity to confront the dangers of the current stage.
