Occupied Jerusalem - A high-ranking Palestinian military official in Ramallah on Sunday warned Israel, the European Union and the Arab states against pushing the Palestinian people to the corner, saying "we will make the world a hell of a place." "
If they pushed us to the corner, we would then have nothing to lose, and at that moment, every Palestinian man, woman and child would become a time-bomb," said the high-ranking official on condition of anonymity.
"Our flesh is very sour, it can't be digested. I assure you, and assure myself before you, that if we found our backs to the wall, nobody would be safe around the world nobody."
The Palestinian colonel said he was convinced that the United States and Sharon were conniving to annihilate the Palestinian people, or murder as many Palestinians as it takes to pacify the Palestinian people and bully them into accepting the Israeli apartheid.
"Even if they turned every town, village, hamlet and refugee camp into a concentration camp, we will not accept apartheid or enslavement by Zionists. Yes, we are an oppressed people facing a brutal and immoral enemy, but we have no choice but to keep the struggle until we are free."
Asked if the PLO would revert to the guerilla tactics of the past 1960s and 1970s, the Palestinian officer said "these would look like kids' games compared to what could happen if we were pushed to the corner."
"I am telling you that every Palestinian child, man and woman would become a time-bomb, I think you understand what I mean."
The colonel said he and other Palestinians wouldn't be deterred by the expected international condemnation of the acts of terror. "
If the world doesn't care about the extermination of our people by the United States and Israel, why should any Palestinian, Arab or Muslim give a damn about the charges of terror
. If it is terror, then be it."
They will be taking a page from Ayn Rand by "shrugging off" the Palestinians and letting them fend for themselves, and they can further enrage them by using the Arabic word for "shrugging off" to describe this new policy. (Hint: it's a word you already have heard.)
In 5 years there will be no more Palestinian problem ,
Yes, we are an oppressed people facing a brutal and immoral enemy, but we have no choice but to keep the struggle until we are free."
This is very true, unfortunetly they've yet to figure out that the oppressors come from their own people.
That was a howler. I was getting ready for work, so I didn't catch the name of the guy, but heck, they all sound alike anyway. Blah blah blah It's the fault of the Israelis blah blah blah It's the fault of the Israelis. They might as well just be playing a broken record.
Boy, wouldn't that be a darn shame!!!
This is a very telling statement. Normally here in the states and elsewhere in the civilized world it's Man, Woman and Child.
This PA nutcase puts children first, as in; we'll send the kidbombs out first. I am surprised he didn't list man last, because after sending the kids, those cowards would send the women before doing anything themselves.
How do you do those colors?
Nice!
