Dear
Producer;
I listened
with great interest to the positive informative interview that Michael Enwright had with Sam Bahour,
last Sunday.
Sam Bahour gave an accurate picture of the oppressive
conditions that the Palestinian people are made to endure under the brutal illegal Israeli
occupation that has been allowed to continue for 40 years, in defiance of
international law and repeated Security Council resolutions. The practices used
under this occupation include extra-judicial assassination, torture, demolition of thousands of homes, denial of health care,
daily humiliation and expropriation of property for the creation of illegal
colonies [settlements]. These practices are in violation of virtually every
article of the Fourth Geneva convention, and are defined by international
law as war crimes.
The
conditions, described by Mr bahour, are confirmed by international human rights
bodies, like Amnesty International,
and Israeli human rights groups like B'Tselem.
We thank
you for allowing our Canadian people to hear the facts as they are.
Yours
sincerely,
Ismail Zayid MD.
