Palestine: Mesi khianati kami - Galloway MP Britain
Khamis , 07/01/2010 – Seorang ahli Parlimen British dan ketua konvoi ‘Pembuluh Kehidupan 3, George Galloway menegaskan bahawa konvoinya yang menempuh perjalanan selama 31 hari disambut dengan penuh kegembiraan oleh penduduk Gaza “…kerana melihat kami sanggup mengorbankan darah semata-mata kerana mereka.” Dalam rancangan ‘Tanpa Sempadan’ yang disiarkan oleh saluran TV kabel al-Jazeerah pada petang Rabu (6/1/2010), beliau hairan dengan tindakan yang diambil pihak Mesir sehingga menyebabkan beberapa anggota konvoinya terpaksa mendapatkan rawatan di hospital kerana ada di antara mereka mengalami patah tulang dan cedera parah. Mereka mengalaminya hanya kerana matlamat mereka untuk menghantar ubat-ubatan dan makanan kepada rakyat Gaza yang terkepung.

Article (Terkini) Perniagaan organ badan, satu lagi siri jenayah Zionis
Khamis, 27/08/2009
Perniagaan organ badan para syuhada’ Palestin adalah satu jenayah yang sudah lama berlaku yang baru-baru ini menyebabkan pertelingkahan di antara orang-orang Sweden dan regim Zionis. Meskipun ia tidaklah dianggap sebagai jenayah yang utama, namun ia menambahkan satu lagi siri jenayah Zionis yang dilakukan terhadap rakyat Palestin.

BOIKOT COCA-COLA, COLGATE, AMBI PUR, RIDSECT
Wartawa
n Sweden, Donald Boustroum tidak berdusta ketika beliau melaporkan bagaimana beberapa keluarga Palestin di Tebing Barat dan Semenanjung Gaza mendakwa tentera Zionis melakukan penculikan tersusun terhadap pemuda Palestin yang kemudiannya jenazah mereka dihantar pulang semula kepada keluarga mereka setelah beberapa organ badan mereka diambil. Beliau juga turut memberikan fakta jelas 
yang menunjukkan regim Zionis melakukan jenayah tersebut dengan tersusun terhadap rakyat Palestin yang diusir dari tanahair mereka secara paksaan.
Laporan oleh akhbar Sweden ‘Haafton Bladet’ menunjukkan kewujudan suatu perniagaan organ tubuh manusia yang laris di Israel kerana keperluan yang mendesak terhadapnya. Ia juga menunjukkan keterlibatan pihak berkuasa rasmi dan para doktor yang utama dalam hal ini. Ia juga menegaskan wujud bukti kehilangan beberapa pemuda Palestin selama 5 hari sebelum jenazah mereka dihantar pulang ke kawasan kediaman secara rahsia pada waktu malam dengan terdapat kesan pembedahan pada badan mereka.

Berikut adalah kisah kapal perang Amerika yang diserang oleh Israel. Lihat bagaimana media cuba menutup kes ini supaya tidak diketahui ramai orang terutama rakyat Amerika sendiri.
Because so few people know about Israel's extremely ruthless attack on the US Navy ship, the USS Liberty, I'd like to alert you to that as well. This is a profoundly important topic. The crew members, who are still waiting for justice, have waged a heroic (but to date unsuccessful) campaign to bring this attack before the American people.One of the most important articles is the report by the independent commission chaired by former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moorer (among its illustrious panel members was Marine General Ray Davis, the nation's highest-ranking Medal of Honor recipient at the time). This report provides evidence that the facts on this attack were covered up at the order of Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and President Lyndon Baines Johnson. Normally, such evidence -- from such a distinguished body -- would result in Congressional hearings.
In this case, the media buried it -- even the Washington Post failed to report on this historic event on Capitol Hill. While AP had an excellent news report on the panel's briefing in the Rayburn House Office Building, this highly newsworthy story, which should have been headlined around the country, was buried in its wire offerings of the day and very few news media picked it up or gave it the prominence it deserved.
The crew has supplied a detailed legal brief on the this incident to the Secretary of the Army, the agency required by law to investigate war crimes against American citizens. Again, this has not been reported to the American public.
Such neglect by the American media is unconscionable.

Kapal bantuan Iran diperhatikan...
Egypt keeping Iran aid ship from Gaza-Israel tells Iran aid ship for Gaza to leave:.
1-22-09 Posted on 23 Januari 2009 2:55:22 by SJackson
Kapal bantuan kemanusiaan masih belum mendapat kebenaran berlabuh di pelabuhan Al-Areesh, Mesir.
An Iranian aid ship bound for Gaza has not yet received permission to dock at the Egyptian port of Al-Areesh, 50km off the coastal strip.
Pengarah Bulan Sabit Merah Ahmad Navvab berkata pada hari Rabu, walaupun pihak berkuasa Mesir memberi permit untuk melalui Pelabuhan Al-Areesh tetapi setakat ini belum dibenarkan berlabuh.
Ahmad Navvab, a provincial Red Crescent director, said Wednesday that although Egyptian authorities issued permits for the aid's dispatch via the Al-Areesh port, they have so far prevented the ship to drop anchor.
"Jawapan dari mereka ialah pelabuhan telah penuh dan tidak ada ruang untuk kapal lain berlabuh", kata Navvab, tambahan lagi permit diberi selepas menerima tekanan antarabangsa.
"Their pretext is that the port is at full capacity and lacks necessary space for another ship," said Navvab, adding that Egyptian authorities issued permits only after coming under international pressure.
Navvab berkata kapal ini membawa hampir 2,000 tans bekalan ubat dan makanan untuk bantuan krisis kemanusiaan di Gaza yang berada 15 batu dari pantai Gaza.
Navvab said the vessel, holding an estimated 2,000 tons of medical and food supplies for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, is currently anchored some 15 miles off the coast of Gaza.
Ia berlaku selepas tentera Israel memintas kapa Iran pada 14 Januari, walaupun telah berlepas dari Pelabuhan Said dengan dokumen yang diperlukan untuk berlabuh.
This comes after the Israeli military intercepted an Iranian ship on January 14, even though it left the Egyptian port of Said with the paperwork required to dock.

Mesir adalah satu-satunya negara yang berkongsi sempadan dengan semenanjung Gaza, telah mengawal semua aktiviti dengan Israel berkenaan dengan kapal Iran.
Egypt, the only state which shares border with the Gaza Strip, has been coordinating all activity with Israel regarding the Iranian vessel.
Serangan Tel Aviv 3 minggu berturut-turut telah melumpuhkan bantuan untuk penduduk Palestin yang dikepung selepas disekat bekalan makanan, ubat-ubatan dan minyak memasuki Gaza.
Tel Aviv's three week-long offensive on Gaza had paralyzed relief efforts for the besieged Palestinians, after repeatedly blocking stockpiles of food, fuel and medicine bound for the strip.
PBB, kesan serangan memberi kesan kepada bantuan kemanusian dan bantuan kecemasan perlu disalurkan dengan segera.
The United Nations, worried about the deepening humanitarian impact of the war, says there is an urgent need for emergency shipment.
Pekerja bantuan berkata, bantuan kemanusia di semenanjung Gaza berada dalam keadaan yanga sangat teruk dengan penduduk seramai 1.1 juta orang dan 80 peratus darinya bergantung kepada bantuan makanan.
According to relief workers, the humanitarian situation in the impoverished strip is at its worst with over 1.1 million people - about 80 percent of the residents of Gaza - dependent on food aid.
Rejim Zionis Israel menyatakan, Operasi Cas Lead yang dilancarkan pada 27 Disember 2008 bertujuan untuk menjatuhkan kerajaan Hamas yang dipilih oleh rakyat.
Israel later revealed that Operation Cast Lead, launched on December 27, was aimed at toppling the democratically-elected Hamas government.
Sekurang-kurangnya 1,340 penduduk Gaza terbunuh dan 5,320 telah dimasukkan ke hospital kesan dari serangan.
At least 1,340 Gazans were killed and at least 5,320 others were hospitalized as a result of the onslaught.
Dijangkan 60,800 orang tidak berumah dan lebih dari 100,000 melarikan diri. Sumber air bersih dan bekalan elektrik dilaporkan cuma ada kurang dari 12 jam sehari.
An estimated 60,800 people are left homeless and more than 100,000 people remain displaced in the costal sliver. Running water and electricity are reportedly available less than 12 hours a day.
"Semua penduduk telah menghilangkan diri," lapor BBC
"Entire neighborhoods have disappeared," the BBC reported.
Biro Pusat Statistik Palestin melaporkan lebih daripada 4,100 buat rumah telah dimusnahkan dan 17,000 buah yang lain dirosakkan.
The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics has reported that more than 4,100 homes have been reduced to rubble and 17,000 others damaged.
"Lebih kurang 1,500 kilang-kilang dan bengkel, 20 buah masjid, 31 kawasan keselamatan dan 10 paip air/peparitan juga telah dimusnahkan," tambahnya lagi.
"About 1,500 factories and workshops, 20 fffmosques, 31 security installations and 10 water or sewage pipes were also damaged," it added.

Actress Samantha Morton said she will never work for the BBC again if the Corporation fails to broadcast an emergency appeal for help in Gaza.
The 31-year-old Golden Globe winner and Oscar nominee led a string of celebrities at a central London fundraiser for the British Aid Agency Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP).
The Longford actress said she was embarrassed to earn money from a corporation that would take such an "horrific" and "disgusting" decision.
She said she wanted to know how the appeal by the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) was different to Comic Relief or Children in Need.
"I'm shocked and appalled," she said. "I've worked for the BBC since I was a small child. As a public service they've got it very wrong. I'm not as articulate about this as I would like to be because I'm so appalled. I will never work for the BBC again unless they change their mind."
She went on: "It's very, very wrong. It's not a political message. It's about raising money for children who are dying.

Rabu, 28/01/2009Amir Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah telah mengumumkan bahawa kerajaan Kuwait hanya akan menyalurkan bantuan kewangan ke Gaza melalui Tabung Pembangunan Arab dan tidak akan menyalurkan ke Mahmoud Abbas.

Keputusan itu juga di buat setelah beberapa pengamal politik di Kuwait mendedahkan bahawa bantuan yg di beri kepada Mahmoud Abas tidak di salurkan kepada pihak yang bertanggung jawab di kawasan Gaza.

Setakat ini 4 buah negara telah memutuskan hubungan diplomatik dengan Israel didahului dengan Venezuala dan Bolivia diikuti oleh Mauritania serta Qatar.
Antara 4 buah negara ini 2 buah negara adalah negara bukan Arab/Islam yang menentang kekejaman tentera Israel terhadap rakyat Palestine[Gaza].
Untuk makluman, Mesir dan Jordan mempunyai hubungan diplomatik dengan Israel. Jordan ada membuat kenyataan untuk memikirkan semula hubungan diplomatik dengan Israel. Sehingga hari ini Jordan belum lagi membuat apa-apa kenyataan tentang hubungan diplomatik tersebut tetapi Venezuala dan Bolivia terus membuat keputusan memutuskan hubungan diplomatik.
Mungkin kerana takut lebih banyak negara untuk bertindak memutuskan hubungan diplomatik, Israel mengambil keputusan sendiri untuk gencatan senjata. Mungkin siapa yang tahu.

Apakah siasatan tentang pengeboman rakyat Palestin semasa berkelah di pantai telah selesai? Begitulah alasan demi alasan, kesilapan itu ini bla...bla...
Hanya Israel sebuah negara yang diberi kemudahan dan kelengkapan ketenteraan dari Amerika. Tidak ada sebuah negara di dalam dunia ini diberi peralatan ketenteran seperti Israel hatta sekutu rapatnya seperti Arab Saudi dan Mesir.
Sebagai insan yang kerdil ini, marilah kita lakukan dengan sedikit demi sedikit memboikot produk Amerika/Israel. Terlalu lama kita telah menggunakan produk Amerika/Israel yang hasil keuntungan dibawa balik ke Amerika dan seterusnya mengeluarkan bom dan peluru untuk membunuh orang Islam seperti di Palestin.
Peringkat permulaan saya telah memboikot produk Coca-Cola [dah lama sejak 2001] dan sekarang nak mulakan pula dengan produk jenama McDonald dan Sara Lee. Starbuck memang tidak pernah pergi pun mahal pula tu, lebih baik saya minum kopi Radix.

Shoot Then Ask, Israeli Soldiers Told
CAIRO — Israeli occupation forces returning for a break from the fighting in the Gaza Strip are revealing ruthless tactics they are being ordered to follow. "We are treating everything as hostile right now," Alon, an army lieutenant, told the Times on Wednesday, 14 January.
When his unit ventures into any alleyway in the densely-populated Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza, they opened fire without hesitation.
"We were told not to take chances — to shoot rather than ask questions," says Alon, citing his orders.
Since the start of Israel's onslaught, over 1,013 people, nearly half of them civilians, have been killed in countless aerial bombardments and 10 days of heavy fighting.
No less than 315 children and 100 women are among the dead, according to Gaza medics.
Around 4,700 people have been wounded, hundreds critically, in Israel's largest-ever offensive in the heavily-populated coastal territory.
With the borders sealed, there was no place of safety for civilians to flee the fighting, meaning they were forced to live in fear and terror.
Nine Israeli rights groups stressed Wednesday that the Gaza offensive has caused unprecedented suffering to civilian residents who are being subjected to "extreme humanitarian distress."
"The level of harm to the civilian population is unprecedented," they wrote in a joint open letter to Defense Minister Ehud Barak.
They accused the army of "making wanton use of lethal force which has to date caused the deaths of hundreds of uninvolved civilians."
"This kind of fighting constitutes a blatant violation of the laws of warfare and raises the suspicion... of the commission of war crimes."
Destruction
Lieutenant-Colonel Yehuda said it was standard practice for Israeli troops to enter buildings with bursts of shooting.
"In one case the building started burning but we managed to clear out our men in time."
Even the Israeli soldiers are shocked by the scale of destruction they are leaving behind.
"It doesn’t look like we’ve been there a few weeks — it looks destroyed, demolished, like we were bombing it for years," said Alon.
"You can’t imagine what damage we have done."
Hundreds of homes, government buildings, schools, hospitals and mosques have been razed to the ground in air, sea and ground attacks.
"I’m not a newcomer in the army. Both my brothers served in combat units that saw action in Gaza," Alon told the Times.
"And I can say that this is the most aggressive line that we have ever taken towards fighting the Palestinians.
"As you say in English, the gloves were off."
White Phosphorus
Israeli soldiers confirmed what their army is vehemently denying; using white phosphor shells in bombing Gaza targets.
"We’ve been using it responsibly…it’s been around the whole time," one soldier told the Times.
The Israeli army on Monday insisted all weapons being used in its Gaza war were within the bounds of international law.
Medics in Gaza say they have treated more than 50 people suffering burns caused by controversial white phosphorus shells, a toxic chemical agent which burns away human flesh to the bone.
Early this week, Human Rights Watch accused Israel of using white-phosphorus in bombing the densely-populated Gaza Strip.
Under international law, white phosphorus is banned for use against civilians, but is permitted if used for creating a smokescreen.
Two Norwegians who returned from Gaza on Monday, January 12, also accused Israel of using Gaza as a testing ground for a new extremely nasty type of explosive.
They had seen clear signs, including very brutal amputations without shrapnel injuries, that DIME explosives, a new experimental kind of weapon, were being used in Gaza.

Ismail Haniyeh open letter to the world.
CAIRO — Ismail Haniyeh, the sacked premier of the Palestinian national unity government and the de facto premier of Gaza, insists that Israel's onslaught against the heavily-populated territory is politically-motivated. "Despite its frantic efforts to conceal it, the root cause of Israel's criminal war on Gaza is the elections of January 2006, which saw Hamas win by a substantial majority," Haniyeh wrote in an open letter addressed to the people of the West and published in The Independent on Thursday, January 15.
"What occurred next was that Israel alongside the US and the European Union joined forces in an attempt to quash the democratic will of the Palestinian people," he stressed.
"They set about reversing the decision first by obstructing the formation of a national unity government and then by making a living hell for the Palestinian people through economic strangulation.
"The abject failure of all these machinations finally led to this vicious war."
He refuted Israeli claims that the military offensive aims at ending rocket attacks.
"Palestinians are appalled that the members of the European Union do not view this obscene siege as a form of aggression.
"Despite the overwhelming evidence, they shamelessly assert that Hamas brought this catastrophe upon the Palestinian people because it did not renew the truce," said Haniyeh.
"Yet we ask, did Israel honor the terms of the ceasefire mediated by Egypt in June? It did not. The agreement stipulated a lifting of the siege and an end to attacks in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
"Despite our full compliance, the Israelis persisted in murdering Palestinians in Gaza as well as the West Bank during what became known as the year of the Annapolis peace."
Haniyeh criticized world silence to the killing of more than 1030 Palestinians, half of them women and children, in 20 days and Israel's use of banned weapons.
"How many more international treaties and conventions must Zionist Israel breach before it is held accountable?
There is not a capital in the world today where free and decent people are not outraged by this brutal oppression. Neither Palestine nor the world would be the same after these crimes."
Jangan derma kepada kumpulan tidak berjuang di Palestin'
Azamin AminWed Jan 14, 09 11:20:25 am MYT
KUALA TERNGGANU, 14 Jan (Hrkh) - Naib Presiden PAS Mohammad Sabu mengingatkan orang ramai supaya tidak menderma dan menyumbang dana kepada kumpulan yang tidak berjuang di Palestin malah dikatakan bersekongkol dengan Yahudi.
"Kita bimbang, ada yang membuat kutipan d masjid-masjid untuk derma Palestin tetapi kemudiannya menyalurkan dana tersebut kepada kumpulan yang tidak berjuang seperti Fatah yang yang tidak diiktiraf rakyat Palestin tetapi kerajaan yang bersekongkol dengan Yahudi," katanya.
"Saya menyeru orang ramai khususnya masarakat Malaysia yang prihatin untuk menderma kepada rakyat Palestin yang sebenarnya dan pejuang-pejuang yang berlawan dengan rejim zionis Israel," katanya yang akan berangkat ke Palestin pada 15 Januari ini.
Beliau ditemui Harakah di Dewan Dato' Wan Muttalib di Kuala Ibai sebelum sidang media tiga pemimpin tertinggi Pakatan Rakyat pada 11 Januari lalu.
Justeru katanya walaupun sesen didermakan oleh rakyat ia perlu dibantah jika disalurkan kepada kumpulan Mahmoud Abbas yang didakwa bersekongkol dengan Yahudi.
"Kerajaan perlu jelaskan ke mana wang derma itu akan disalurkan, kalau kepada kumpulan Mahmoud Abbas maknanya wang umat Islam dari Malaysia diberi kepada kumpulan yang tidak berjuang,"katanya yang mempersoalkan wang derma yang dikutip oleh kerajaan melalui masjid-masjid di seluruh negara atas nama bantuan kepada Palestin yang bakal diagihkan kepada pihak yang tidak diketahui prinsip perjuangan mereka.
Sebelum ini Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Dato' Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi mengarahkan wang derma dimasjid-masjid pada hari Jumaat selama tiga minggu berturut diserahkan kepada pihaknya untuk tujuan membantu rakyat Palestin.
Bagaimanapun kata Mohammad, Malaysia selama ini dilihat tidak mengiktiraf kerajaan Palestin dipimpin oleh Hamas yang memenangi pilihan raya negara itu sebaliknya lebih dekat dengan kumpulan yang dipimpin oleh Mahmoud Abbas (Fatah).
Antaranya sebelum ini Malaysia sebagai tuan rumah persidangan khas Pergerakan Negara-Negara Berkecuali (NAM) pernah mengiktiraf kehadiran wakil Pertubuhan Pembebasan Palestin (PLO) sebagai mewakili rakyat Palestin dan mengenepikan wakil Hamas sebagai kerajaan yang sah dinegara itu yang turut hadir dalam persidangan tersebut.
Sementara itu, Kerajaan Malaysia dipersoal menyebelahi pihak yang mana dalam isu serangan Israel ke atas Palestin ekoran perkembangan terbaru melibatkan tangkapan terhadap 21 peserta himpunan aman membantah serangan Israel di Dataran Merdeka baru-baru ini.
Mohammad Sabu yang mempersoal tindakan tersebut berkata, kerajaan dilihat seperti tidak menyebelahi Palestin dan mula memperlihatkan wajah sebenar mereka.
"Bercakap seolah-olah membenci apa yang dilakukan oleh Israel tetapi apabila rakyat turun menyatakan bantahan ke atas Israel, 21 orang telah ditangkap.
Beliau juga menyifatkan tindakan itu membuktikan 'wajah' sebenar kerajaan BN yang tunduk kepada tekanan Amerika tetapi cuba menunjukkan sokongan perjuangan rakyat Palestin untuk memenangi hati pengundi di Kuala Terengganu.
Beliau dalam pada itu menggesa pengundi Kuala Terengganu menyatakan bantahan terhadap sikap kerajaan itu melalui undi pada 17 Januari ini.
Antara yang ditahan dalam kejadian terbabit ialah Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (Adun) Kota Damansara, Dr Mohd Nasir Hashim, ahli Parlimen Klang, Charles Santiago, Penyelaras Jaringan Rakyat Tertindas (Jerit) Arutchelvan Subramaniam dan Norlaila Othman daripada Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA (GMI). - azm

Mauritania to cut ties with Israel
Posted: 10-01-2009 , 19:30 GMT
Mauritania's decision to recall its ambassador to Tel Aviv earlier this week marked the "first step" to cutting ties with the Jewish state, an adviser to the country's military junta said on Saturday. "Mauritania's decision to recall its ambassador in Israel is a first step towards severing ties with this aggressive entity," said Cheikh Ben Horma Ould Ben Babana, adviser to the president of Mauritania's ruling High Council of State.
"This relationship between Mauritania and the Israeli entity disturbs and embarrasses Mauritanians," Ben Babana told reporters in Cairo, according to Reuters. Mauritania said on Monday it had recalled its ambassador for consultations, days after protesters took to the streets of the capital Nouakchott to demand the country cut diplomatic ties with Israel over its military offensive in the Gaza Strip.
Ties between Israel and Mauritania were the legacy of a former regime and had been established for "personal reasons", Ben Babana said.

Jordan Threatens to Reconsider Ties With Israel
January 06, 2009 09:00 AM ET Larry Derfner Permanent Link Print
With large, angry anti-Israeli demonstrations putting pressure on moderate Arab states, Jordan, one of two Arab countries that have diplomatic relations with Israel (Egypt being the other), now says it is "reconsidering" those ties. Al Jazeera reports:
Jordan's prime minister has said his country may review its diplomatic ties with Israel in the wake of the offensive in Gaza.
"Jordan will look into all options, including reconsidering relations with Israel," Nader Dahabi told legislators on Sunday.
"There is no way we would remain silent when this threat affects the security of the entire region."
Turkey, a moderate Muslim country that Israel considers a vital regional ally and military partner, has likewise been compelled by popular opinion to takes sides against Israel. Ha'aretz reports:
Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday accused Israel of committing "inhuman" acts in Gaza that would cause it to self-destruct. In an interview with Al Jazeera television network, the Turkish prime minister said Israel hurt its relations with Turkey by attacking Gaza, and will be punished. In the wake of his visit to the Middle East on Monday, Erdogan voiced his support of Hamas and said Turkey would act as a mediator between the Islamist organization and the United Nations Security Council.
West Bank leadership softening criticism of HamasHamas's rival, the U.S.-backed Palestinian Authority that rules the West Bank, has begun to mute its public criticism of Gaza's radical leadership. Ghassan Khatib, a former PA minister, writes in the joint Israeli/Palestinian news site bitterlemons.org that this could hasten steps toward a merger between the PA and Hamas:
The Israeli attack has increased public sympathy and support for Hamas because it is the target of these attacks and because it is trying to fight back. The Palestinian Authority in Ramallah, meanwhile, finds itself in an awkward and difficult position.
For one thing, it has been marginalized and has been the target of criticism while being compared unfavorably with the role and position of Hamas in Gaza. This has led Fateh spokespeople and leaders to change their tone from trying to hint at Hamas responsibility for the suffering of Gazans to a more reasonable and rational tone, exemplified by President Mahmoud Abbas, who, during a meeting of the PLO's Executive Committee, suggested that the time is right for coordination between the different factions and invited all factions, including Hamas, to address this issue.
This change in tone could result in some positive momentum in the dialogue among the Palestinian factions that are under growing pressure from the public to reconcile.

Mauritania's decision to recall its ambassador to Tel Aviv earlier this week marked the "first step" to cutting ties with the Jewish state, an adviser to the country's military junta said on Saturday. "Mauritania's decision to recall its ambassador in Israel is a first step towards severing ties with this aggressive entity," said Cheikh Ben Horma Ould Ben Babana, adviser to the president of Mauritania's ruling High Council of State.
"This relationship between Mauritania and the Israeli entity disturbs and embarrasses Mauritanians," Ben Babana told reporters in Cairo, according to Reuters. Mauritania said on Monday it had recalled its ambassador for consultations, days after protesters took to the streets of the capital Nouakchott to demand the country cut diplomatic ties with Israel over its military offensive in the Gaza Strip.
Ties between Israel and Mauritania were the legacy of a former regime and had been established for "personal reasons", Ben Babana said.

With large, angry anti-Israeli demonstrations putting pressure on moderate Arab states, Jordan, one of two Arab countries that have diplomatic relations with Israel (Egypt being the other), now says it is "reconsidering" those ties. Al Jazeera reports:
Jordan's prime minister has said his country may review its diplomatic ties with Israel in the wake of the offensive in Gaza.
"Jordan will look into all options, including reconsidering relations with Israel," Nader Dahabi told legislators on Sunday.
"There is no way we would remain silent when this threat affects the security of the entire region."
Turkey, a moderate Muslim country that Israel considers a vital regional ally and military partner, has likewise been compelled by popular opinion to takes sides against Israel. Ha'aretz reports:
Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday accused Israel of committing "inhuman" acts in Gaza that would cause it to self-destruct. In an interview with Al Jazeera television network, the Turkish prime minister said Israel hurt its relations with Turkey by attacking Gaza, and will be punished. In the wake of his visit to the Middle East on Monday, Erdogan voiced his support of Hamas and said Turkey would act as a mediator between the Islamist organization and the United Nations Security Council.
