That is when occupation and colonialism are combined with the excessive and unjustified use of force by the occupying forces in many instances, leading to a large number of casualties among the people. During approximately the past three weeks, the occupying Power has killed more than 90 Palestinian martyrs and injured more than 3,000, many of them who remain in serious condition. One-third of these killed and injured are children under the age of 18. During this period, the occupying forces have even used heavy weaponry, helicopter gunships and, in many cases, willfully caused a large number of casualties and losses among our people. In addition to all this malignancy, Israel, the occupying Power, attempts to combine all of this with unrelenting attempts to lay the blame on the Palestinian side - to lay the blame on those who have been killed and injured.
Occupation is to be forgotten.
Colonial behavior is to be forgotten. Heavy weaponry is to be forgotten. The large number of Palestinian victims, including children, is to be forgotten. And, the Palestinian side must be blamed because it dared to scream. The Palestinian people must be blamed because they have expressed their anger and frustration through demonstrations and throwing stones at the soldiers of occupation.
