Ms. Sheila Rogers

This Morning

CBC

 

Dear Ms. Rogers:

 

It is time that Israel's apologists, like Mr. Spector, in your program today, come to understand that occupation is violence, and that there would be no violence for Israelis or Palestinians if Israeli illegal occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and Gaza, that has been allowed to stand for over 34 years, is completely terminated in compliance with international law and repeated Security Council resolutions. All peoples under foreign occupation, including even the Palestinian people, are entitled,under international law, to resist foreign occupation.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Ismail Zayid, MD
