Wanted
For War Crimes in Palestine
Israel, USA, UK, France &
Germany
All Five are History Sheeters &
Absconders
Running away from International Criminal Court
Sir,
The world is witnessing genocide of
Palestinians by Israel. The USA, UK, France & Germany are aiding and
abetting this crime against humanity. Israel, like an absconder state, is
refusing to come under International Criminal Court (ICC) proceedings on the
technical plea that it has not ratified the Rome Statute. Israel has gone to
the extent of informing the UN that it has no intention of ratifying this
treaty and by implication it reserves the right to massacre people with no
accountability. Under the circumstances an independent International
Investigative People’s Tribunal is urgently needed.
When the US government was slaughtering
Vietnamese in the 1960s, a person of the stature of Bertrand Russell, a
philosopher statesman initiated a process leading to investigations by the International
War Crimes Tribunal (Russell-Sartre Tribunal or Stockholm Tribunal). The
findings of such a tribunal puts tremendous worldwide pressure on the
government committing crimes against humanity.
As a public intellectual of
unimpeachable integrity and with global acceptability your efforts to get such
a tribunal into motion will send a strong message that humanity is alive. Your
association with it will act as a balm to the wounds of Palestinians inflicted
by the ruling class politicians (right wing & ultra-right wing) of the Jewish
state of Israel.
May we dare say that intellectuals will
have to step on public streets to protest against this genocide. If even not
now, then when?
Yours sincerely,
P.S. Sahni & Shobha Aggarwal
