Jammer genoeg heeft het CIDI daarvan weinig blijk gegeven in de afgelopen 30 jaar. waar het Palestijnse rechten betreft. Het Israelische nederzettingenbeleid, de muur, duizenden verwoeste huizen (inclusief de antennes), het recht op terugkeer van de Palestijnse vluchtelingen naar hun steden en dorpen, de discriminatie van Palestijnen in Israel...dit zijn evenzovele zaken waar alles is misgegaan maar waar het CIDI star en trouw vasthield aan de Israelische politieke lijn en nooit in de bres sprong voor herstel van de bij voortduring geschonden Palestijnse rechten. De "gewone" Nederlandse moslims die geen extremisten zijn maar net als vele anderen die volkenrecht aan het hart gaat wel in het algemeen geneigd zijn tot solidariteit met de Palestijnen en kritisch staan tegenover de Israelische politiek hebben van het CIDI dan ook o.i. niets te verwachten. Vrede vereist gerechtigheid, solidariteit en antennes juist daartoe.

Israel verwoestte vele duizenden Palestijnse huizen; niet één keer een CIDI-protest

Nablus, 11. April

Israeli Troops Threaten to Demolish House of Deceased Fighter

During last night's invasion of Nablus at 4.30 am, Israeli troops
took over the house of Abu Raid, the father of the deceased
Palestinian fighter Raid Al Khalili, and told him that the house
would be demolished. Raid died during clashes with the Israeli
military Friday when a bullet was accidentally fired from his own
gun.

While in the house the soldiers deployed explosives, vandalizing the
house by breaking doors, windows, the bathroom and kitchen, and
breaking the furniture.

During the raid the military arrested ten young men, closely related
to the deceased Raid Al Khalili, including a brother and his blind
cousin.

The military left the area at around 11 am. It is still unclear
whether the house is still slated for demolition or if this is just
a threat by the Israeli soldiers present.
