Zoabi: Israel playing with fire

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Hanin Zoabi, the Arab member of the Israeli parliament, has warned of a third Palestinian intifada if Israel persisted in its violations against the Palestinian people and harassment of 1.2 million Palestinians in the 1948 occupied land.

Zoabi in statements to the British daily 'The Guardian' said that Israel was playing with fire and its continued violation of Palestinian rights would lead to a third intifada.

She refused charges against Palestinians in 1948 land of tilting toward violence, rejecting in this regard charges that she violated the law when she took part in the Freedom Flotilla.

"The Zionist project targets taming Palestinians in the 1948 occupied land but the carrot-and-stick policy (with them) failed," the virulent deputy said.

"We did not immigrate to "Israel", but the latter was the one that immigrated to our land … we are the indigenous people of this land and we are being gradually expelled out of it," she charged.
