Letter: Make reparations for Palestine

Now would be a good time to open hospitals in the occupied territory of Israel to handle a massive number of criminal victims in Gaza. It appears that a systematic assault on health services, utilities and other vital safety and health issues has resulted in over 33,000 deaths in the former country called Palestine, handed over to a Jewish Zionist movement in 1948 without consultation or compensation.

As a result of this occupation, displaced citizens of Palestine were herded into ever-tightening living conditions in the hope of having them expelled as the result of a constant harassment program. We believe that the systematic destruction of the Gaza hospitals and dismantling of all services are just another form of this campaign.

Bibi Netanyahu, your time is up and you should not only resign, but return the billions used by your invasive army to the donors.
