Israel extends Hamas MP's detention | |
2006-08-18 | |
An Israeli military court has extended the detention of Abd al-Aziz Dweik, the Palestinian parliament speaker, until next Tuesday. On Thursday, Dweik, 57, who was hospitalised with chest pain after his arrest earlier this month, shouted to television cameras at the court hearing complaining that his arrest was unjust. "I am the elected representative of the people," he said. "This is unjust treatment by an occupation which lacks legitimacy. We do have the right and the legitimacy, but these [Israelis] are unjust and usurpers [of land] who do not observe human dignity or human rights. My rightful place is among the people."

#2 My rightful place is among the people. And the rightful place of your "People" is six feet under. |

#1 We should hear from these morons about as much as we hear from Gilad Shalit. "This is unjust treatment by an occupation which lacks legitimacy. We do have the right and the legitimacy, but these [Israelis] are unjust and usurpers [of land] who do not observe human dignity or human rights. Whether or not you know it, you just shot yourself in the foot, bonehead. At least you can talk like that. |
