1
00:00:01,839 --> 00:00:07,040
but there were not thousands of Israelis

2
00:00:04,319 --> 00:00:09,360
killed over the summer but there were

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:12,880
thousands of Palestinians killed over

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:15,639
the summer and 500 of those were small

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:18,279
children I dare say a little older than

6
00:00:15,639 --> 00:00:21,519
the honorable members grandson on which

7
00:00:18,279 --> 00:00:25,560
I congratulate him but in many cases not

8
00:00:21,519 --> 00:00:28,279
much older there's an air of unreality

9
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:30,920
about this debate so far I had thought

10
00:00:28,279 --> 00:00:33,559
that parliament in this God was catching

11
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:35,719
up with public opinion but the speech

12
00:00:33,559 --> 00:00:39,120
that we've just heard and the

13
00:00:35,719 --> 00:00:42,480
interventions earlier indicate seem to

14
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:46,920
indicate otherwise the minister is on

15
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:49,879
record is saying Israel lives in a tough

16
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:53,480
neighborhood the problem is that Israel

17
00:00:49,879 --> 00:00:57,440
is living on top of somebody else's

18
00:00:53,480 --> 00:01:01,399
neighborhood and the attempt to equate

19
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:05,439
violence from the illegally occupied

20
00:01:01,399 --> 00:01:08,400
with violence from the illegal occupier

21
00:01:05,439 --> 00:01:11,600
is preposterous and yet repeated over

22
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:15,119
and over again already in the short

23
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:19,240
debate that we've had so far it is

24
00:01:15,119 --> 00:01:23,079
illegal and moral right of an occupied

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:26,960
people to rise up against their illegal

26
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:30,119
occupi and after all it's not that the

27
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:32,960
occupation just started

28
00:01:30,119 --> 00:01:35,840
the West Bank and Jerusalem has been

29
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:39,520
illegally occupied for

30
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:43,159
47 years how much longer do you expect

31
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:46,799
the occupied people to wait for their

32
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:50,079
rights well this poppy about peace

33
00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:54,079
talks and the rest there are no peace

34
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:55,880
talks there is no peace process and

35
00:01:54,079 --> 00:01:59,280
contrary to what the honorable gentleman

36
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:01,600
just said there are not two countries

37
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:05,200
involved in in this there's only one

38
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:08,640
country which is occupying the land of

39
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:12,720
another you would think Perhaps it is

40
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:16,319
the case that members in here have no

41
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:19,519
idea how all this started in this very

42
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:23,000
building almost 100 years

43
00:02:19,519 --> 00:02:26,160
ago when Mr balur on behalf of one

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:29,280
people offered to a second people the

45
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:32,000
land which belonged to a third people

46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:35,480
without insulting any of the three

47
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:38,000
people involved we have a historic

48
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:42,120
obligation greater than any other

49
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:46,560
country to side with the victims of the

50
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:51,120
ACT which Mr balur performed yet there's

51
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:54,280
no sign of it here Parliament did

52
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:57,440
recently take a decisive and important

53
00:02:54,280 --> 00:03:00,440
decision but the government has not

54
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:04,040
caught up with it the government

55
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:07,879
continues to support Israel to license

56
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:11,040
the export of arms to Israel and to

57
00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:13,920
afford Israel the criminal in this

58
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:17,760
picture which in

59
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:20,120
1967 was ordered by the United Nations

60
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:23,840
to withdraw from the land it had

61
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:26,560
illegally occupied yet continues to

62
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,560
refuse to do so we should not be trading

63
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:31,439
with them at all we should not be

64
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,360
exporting anything to them at all or

65
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:36,640
allowing the importation from them of

66
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:40,120
anything at all that's after all what we

67
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:45,000
do with any other international law

68
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:47,599
breaker I have very few seconds

69
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,920
left they don't like up them Mr

70
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:53,000
Pritchard well some of them do some of

71
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:58,720
them some of them

72
00:03:53,000 --> 00:04:02,680
do the 15 seconds I have left I can only

73
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:05,680
say this give wi I will give win right

74
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:08,599
Morris The Honorable gentleman um

75
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:11,200
recognize that the Bal for declaration

76
00:04:08,599 --> 00:04:14,519
short though it was did insist on a

77
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:17,440
protection for non-jews for Palestinians

78
00:04:14,519 --> 00:04:20,639
for uh for Christians within that um

79
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:22,280
territory it did so insist Mr Pritchard

80
00:04:20,639 --> 00:04:26,040
but it was apparently written in

81
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:28,600
invisible ink for it has been forgotten

82
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:32,000
by successive British administrations

83
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:35,880
certainly IGN ignored entirely by the

84
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:39,400
state which came into being in uh uh

85
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:42,120
decades later as a result of the Bal for

86
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:44,560
declaration in 45 seconds let me say

87
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:47,919
this if honorable members think that

88
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:50,880
Gaza has been an erupting

89
00:04:47,919 --> 00:04:54,919
soore of enormous International

90
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:57,560
strategic importance and indeed it has

91
00:04:54,919 --> 00:05:00,360
then they better start thinking about

92
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:03,520
Jerusalem the ethnic cleansing of

93
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:07,160
Jerusalem the judaization of

94
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:10,840
Jerusalem the driving out of Christians

95
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:13,840
and Muslims from Jerusalem the closure

96
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:16,440
of the AL AXA mosque for the very first

97
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:18,240
time since Israel illegally got its

98
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,560
hands on it in

99
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:24,000
1967 and the fighting which has been

100
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:27,000
alluded to already all add up to a

101
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,720
crisis about to

102
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:33,520
erupt Mr on the fundament principle of

103
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:37,039
whose land it is The Honorable member

104
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:39,880
for Bradford West is right and what's

105
00:05:37,039 --> 00:05:44,280
more the world more widely is beginning

106
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,280
to take this View and opinion AC
