British author says UN best forum for repatriation of Palestinian refugees
Palestine-Israel-UN, Politics, 10/23/2007
British author Dr. Stephan Sizer said on Monday that 60 percent of the UN resolutions were critical of Israel and called for practical steps by the international community to recognize Palestinians right to return to their homeland.
He regretted that the Zionists are misinterpreting Christianity for their own ends, saying that Christian Zionism has nothing to do with Christianity.
"Christianity is a progressive revelation and a universal faith with belief in heaven, but, the Zionists believe in 'Promised Land' in the earthly world," he told a press conference.
He said that the Zionist lobby is very influential in the United States, adding that the United Nations is the best organ to take initiative to end the Palestinian plight.
Responding to a question why the Christian religious leaders do not condemn the Israeli atrocities against Palestinians, he said that the majority of Christian religious leaders are critical of Israel and the Jewish people are also against the Israeli practices.
"Please do not conflict religious issues with what the US secular government is doing. Judaism is separate from Zionism."
Sizer, who has written articles about historical events distorted by the Zionists, said that the Institute for Studying Christian Zionism repudiates Zionism.
Asked to comment on the United Nations requirement to repatriate the Palestinian refugees to their homeland, he said that repatriation of Palestinians to their own territory will be effective in retaking their own country, because, when the Palestinian refugees come to their home, they will form majority of the population and would form a multi-ethnic state including Jews, Muslims and Christians.
The British author said that the Zionists have distorted remarks by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad about Holocaust, in reference to the Iranian president's statement "why the Palestinians should pay the price for the Holocaust. The tragedy took place in Europe, why the people in the Middle East is being held scapegoat?"
Sizer said that the Zionist media misquoted President Ahmadinejad as if he wanted to drive the Jews into the sea as Israel wants to drive the Palestinians into the desert.
