Gaza Haunts Israeli Officer in South Africa

“The legal applications we have put forward today to the National Directorate of Public Prosecutions is a first step in many attempts of ours determined to see that all those who caused war crimes in Gaza and the entire Palestine are brought to book,” Dr. Shereen Ushid, a respected Jewish academic opposed to Israel’s occupation of Palestine, told IslamOnline.net.

Benjamin who is currently visiting the country at an invitation from Limmud, a global Jewish identify conference organization, to speak at three of its events on warfare.
He is accused of having legitimatized the use of white phosphorous in Israel’s recent Gaza war.

“It is very unfortunate that an organization such as Limmud could invite a person of Lt Col. David’s kind who was responsible for the mass massacre of innocent Palestinian women and Children,” insists Usidin.

“We believe it was disrespectful and a violation of women’s rights for the Limmud to invite a person such as Benjamin who has been involved in driving the war that massacred women and children in Gaza and all over occupied territories of Palestine.”

At least 1,417 Palestinians, more than half of them women and children, were killed in three weeks of Israeli air, land and see attacks.

Dr. Usidin joined on Sunday, August 8, a huge protest march in Johannesburg in honour of Gaza women mowed down by Israeli bullets, heavy war artillery and bio-chemicals.
