Hizbullah Condemns Zionist Attack of Freedom Flotilla, Calls on World to Cut Ties with Zionists

Commenting on the terrorist crime committed by the Zionist occupation forces against those united in solidarity with the Palestinian people on board the Freedom Flotilla, Hizbullah issued the following statement:

Hizbullah denounces the horrid terrorist crime committed by the Zionist occupation forces against the innocent civilians who were on a humanitarian cruise in consolidation with the besieged Palestinian Palestine in the Gaza strip and, thus, considers this crime further proof of the inherent evil in the Zionists psyche which targets all human beings regardless of their confession and race so long as they ready to stand by righteousness in the face of the persistent Zionist terrorism against the Palestinians.

This atrocious crime is the materialization of the tyrannous force which has overtaken the Zionist leaders and which has escalated over the years due to the unlimited Western support of the Zionist scheme and due to the incorrect political bargaining of some Arab regimes in the face of the Zionist revelry which grows every day.

Targeting civilians and inflicting human losses among them is an old "Israeli" policy emanating from the fundamental ideology of its leaders who established the usurping entity. This policy was present well before the establishment of the occupation entity in Palestine and interpreted itself on various historical crossroads.

Hizbullah believes that this crime should constitute a turning point in dealing with the usurping Zionist entity at the level of all international and conscientious powers and considers that the international institutions are faced with a historic test to verify their already shaken credibility; they are demanded to uphold their evident duty to face Zionist crimes consisting of ongoing crimes, the most recent, not last, of which was the attack on activists representing 40 countries and working to daunt Zionists from committing new crimes, and to punish the enemy's leaders who gave the orders to execute the Freedom Flotilla and bring them to justice for being war criminals and committing crimes against humanity.

Hizbullah believes that the entire world is required to seize its silence on the Zionist crimes and to
initiate concrete steps in line with its adoption of human rights and reject oppression slogans by cutting all ties with the Zionist entity and holding it completely responsible for targeting innocent civilians on board the embattled ships.

Hizbullah believes that the leaders of Arab and Islamic countries are required to adopt, if only once, the position of their peoples as condemnations and denunciations are no longer sufficient given the bloody scene; they are demanded to cut all ties with the Zionist enemy and to adopt a concrete strategic process to break the siege on the Gaza strip and the West Bank and to support the Palestinian people and present them with all possible means to aid them in liberating their land and putting an end to the nauseous Zionist nightmare.

Hizbullah offers its deep condolences to the families of the victims of this vile crime and consolidates with them and stands by them in these critical moments, and pays special tribute and respects to the Turkish people for its firm stand by the Palestinian people against the Zionist entity, and lauds the support of the Turkish leadership for continuing in its rejection of the escalating Zionist superciliousness.
