Reageer (1)Goed voorbeeld van wat de Israëlische lobby wereldwijd, dus ook in Groot Brittannië, allemaal aanricht. (PL)
14-2-2010
Baroness Jenny Tonge, a member of the House of Lords in the UK, has been under attack for the past few years as she supports freedom and justice for Palestinians. Just this week, she was dismissed from her position as spokesperson for the Liberal Democrats' shadow health minster.
She was fired after she commented on a media report that the Israeli medical team working in Haiti was once again implicated in organ theft. (You may recall that late last year, after widespread media reports exposing the crimes, the Israeli government reversed its earlier denials and admitted that organs had been stolen in the 1990s from dead or wounded Palestinian prisoners.) Baroness Tonge responded in a highly fair and ethical fashion, telling the Jerusalem Chronicle that, "Israel should investigate such claims and clear its reputation."
