Horrific pictures of the atrocities in Gaza have filled the news and distressed many people recently. However in the short time the news media have to report, there is little time for discussion as to why Hamas fire rockets into Israel, and why Israel responds or initiates as it does, with such disproportionate force.On August 19th 2014, after a month of war, the Gaza death toll stands at 2,016, 70% of whom were civilians, in the small densely populated coastal territory. 10,000 people have been reported injured. Sixty-four Israeli soldiers and three civilians in Israel have been killed.In this interview Tuma Hazou, explains the background to the 2014 Israeli incursion into Gaza within an historical perspective. Tuma was born and educated in Jerusalem. He then joined the BBC Arabic Services in London. He worked as a radio and TV journalist, a filmmaker in Jordan contributing to the BBC, UPI, ABC, and as special advisor to Prince Hassan, then Crown Prince of Jordan. Subsequently he worked in UNICEF’s regional Office for the Middle East and North Africa in Amman, as Chief of Information and External Relations.Tuma speaks openly and compassionately about his concern for his people and the hopeless situation that they are in.

Tuma Hazou, Palestinian Christian & Middle East Analyst, with Lisa Er on Israel/Palestine situation

“The Palestinian/Israeli conflict.”Who are Hamas? And what about Fatah (and who are the Hezbollah?) Have Jews and the Palestinians become victims of Zionism? Born and educated in Jerusalem. Joined BBC Arabic Services in London. Radio TV Journalist, Filmmaker in Jordan, contributing to the BBC, UPI, ABC, and Special advisor to Prince Hassan, then Crown Prince of Jordan. Plus, UNICEF’s regional Office for the Middle East and North Africa in Amman, as Chief of Information and External Relations. As the victors always write the historical record, it has only been very recently that the global public realise that there has been broken agreements in what was Palestine. That to the fair minded, it is obvious in the extreme, that where once the Palestinians owned 94% of what is now seen as Israel, and the Jewish People 6%, this has been virtually reversed as a result of political manipulation. Today, Palestinians are ignored, poor and desperate for justice and the basics of life, and yet the global media has not been prepared to give a balanced viewpoint of their plight, nor Britain or the USA to act accordingly.Listen to Tuma Hazou give a very erudite and coherent explanation of what happened, what is continuing to happen and what the possibilities for tomorrow are.   http://www.exeterpsc.org.uk/images/palestine_maps.JPG  ~ Map of Palestine 1946 to 2000http://www.gisha.org ~  Palestinian and Israeli Human Rights Group   http://www.nkuk.org    Neturei Karta is an international organization of Orthodox Jews dedicated to the propagation and clarification of Torah Judaism and not Zionism.
