‘Israeli terror is worse’
By Roee Nahmias
TEL AVIV – Israel is a racist state that commits war crimes and resorts to terrorism worse than that employed by the Palestinians, former Education Minister Shulamit Aloni charged in an unusually scathing interview with Nazareth-based Arab-Israeli newspaper Kul al-Arab.
… Turning her attention to the Palestinians, Aloni said had she been a Palestinian she would have called for the cessation of suicide bombings and the adoption of the non-violent approach of Mahatma Ghandi.
“It’s true that the terror utilized by Israel in the territories is worse than Palestinian terrorism, but the Hamas movement gives the occupation the opportunity and means to deepen,” she said.
