Terrorism has often served in the creation of states, such as Israel in the land of Palestine. Now terrorists have become rulers recognized by the world. They are applauded in Congress, in America, land of the free. Israel s history was written in blood at Deir Yassin, and proceeded from massacre to massacre, all the way to Qana. Israeli practices include occupying the territories of three countries, throwing out the inhabitants, demolishing their homes, abducting their leaders, and murdering those who dare to fight for their freedom.
Palestinian blood is the price for Israel s legitimate right to self-defence.
But those who destroy their own lives to redeem those of their people are the ones branded terrorists. The application of such double standards has become commonplace in the Western media. State violence has been acclaimed as the art of governing to ensure security. It is defined as the defence of values, of principles, freedom and democracy. Following the collapse of the USSR, the US became the sole perpetrator of conflict.
