Never, never be afraid to do what’s right
by Mazin Qumisyeh, January 22, 2017. “Never, never be afraid to do what’s right,
especially if the well-being of a person or an animal is at stake. Society’s
punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we
look the other way.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Micah 2: “1 Woe to those who scheme iniquity, Who work
out evil on their beds! When morning comes, they do it, For it is in the power
of their hands. 2 They covet fields and then seize them, And houses, and take
them away. They rob a man and his house, A man and his inheritance. 3 Therefore
thus says the LORD, “Behold, I am planning against this family a calamity
From which you cannot remove your necks; And you will not walk haughtily, For
it will be an evil time…”

“Transfer of power” in the United States : The
White House used to be occupied by Zionists of one tactic and now it is
occupied by Zionists with a different tactic (both aiming for the same goals of
hegemony and racism).

Obama came to office promising to end the Israeli
occupation and left having strengthened it. Let us hope that Trump who came
promising to strengthen the Israeli occupation will (through hubris) cause its
demise.

The Trump speech was according to Gideon Levy of Haaretz
eerily similar to “Deutschland uber Alles” Hitlerian speeches of the
1930’s. Only time will tell what Trump
and his Zionist coterie will do but it is already inspiring the ultra right
factions of Netanyahu and his settler cabinet.

The people are frightened and yet energized. Millions
demonstrated in cities across the globe yesterday (women marches). The crowds
demonstrating in Washington DC a day after the inauguration were certainly
higher than attended the inauguration. Hundreds were arrested during the
inauguration and some disrupted the inauguration with “We the people…”. People
demonstrating either they preferred the first kind of Zionist occupation (Obama) or they support freedom from that occupation
(hence lots of Palestinian flags). Stirrings of discontent also give an
opportunity of dialog about things and to move to change which can only come
from the people.

Locally here in Palestine, we see Zionism getting a green
light to ethnically cleanse more with impunity. Netanyahu want the US to engage
in more conflicts on behalf of his occupation (on Syria and Iran). Israeli
forces destroyed many homes in the village of Um Al-Hiran in the Naqab (Negev).
They killed one Palestinian (a citizen of Israel). See https://youtu.be/aYX2LdMq64o In a
related matter, Tzipi Livni (ex foreign minister) canceled a trip to Bruxlles fearing questioning
for Gaza war crimes.
