French Jews Call For Prosecuting ‘Criminal’ Sharon
PARIS, October 16 (IslamOnline.net) - In an unprecedented event, a thousand French Jews Wednesday, October 15, urged to have Israeli Premiere Ariel Sharon prosecuted for his “criminal policies” against Palestinians, and supported the notion of a Palestinian state with occupied east Jerusalem as its capital.

In a strongly-worded statement entitled “Another Jewish Voice”, the signatories said they are against the oppressive practices by the Israeli army in Palestinian-ruled areas.

“Israelis will never enjoy peace or even a future for their country unless they set on the negotiating table and settle a compromise with the Palestinians,” read the statement, signed by politicians, doctors and legalists.

It warned that Israeli actions against the Palestinians “could end up with their perpetrators standing before the International Criminal Court”.

13. French jews
These French jews are absolutely right, of course, but don't they know that International law doesn't apply to Israel in general and Sharon in particular?

2. Now THERE are some Jews doing the righteous thing!
Jews around the world should be speaking in one voice: sack Sharon, put him and his wicked crew on trial for war crimes.

'If you want peace, work for justice'

6. So what you're saying is...
The only jews who say anything bad about Sharon are being bullied by antisemites? On account of Sharon is a great human being?

10. I will put it to yuou this way
not that the article will go into it.

Both Arick Sharon, and Arafat are war criminals

They both have done thigns that they should pay for.

Now some Jews, even here in the US, can see this reality...
the tikkun community, and until Sharon is removed, LEGALLY, I
cannot see the end of the crisis.

Now Arafat, reality is he is close to death, so nature will do
that, but BOTH should be removed, LEGALLY

Oh and what is your response to the Refusenicks who are saying
no we won't fly for you?

11. Anti-Semitism
Don't confuse politics and religion. You can disagree with Israeli politics and with Sharon without thowing the "Jews" into the formula.

What is going on in Israel and the occupied territories is an Israeli thing, not a Jewish thing.

This has nothing to do with Anti-Semitism

14. Exactly
Those who throw the "anti-Semite" card around every time there is an anti-Sharon post is analagous to condemning those of us who are anti-Bush as being "anti-Christian".
