He emphasized that without the USA support and support of the European countries it is impossible for Israel to. The current crisis in middle east is certainly one of the most serious in the last half centrury. The Zionist state supported by USA wants to impose another neckbar on the Palestinian people. They want to kill and expel as many Palestinians as possible from their home to the far away places. The genocide by the zoinist state is impossible without the support by USA. Most impotantly it is because of unlimited support by the American imperialism. The USA is sending weapons without bounderies so the Israel can kill without being stopped by Washington. Other powers including European union have their own interests with the Israel. None of them have any commitment to the basic rights of Palestinians and the prisoners. The public of these countries want to impose the bycott of weapons delivery to Israel. They don?€?t want to arm a genocide state.
