102-YEAR-OLD CALLS US TO BEAR WITNESS TO PALESTINIAN HORROR
February 17, 2024“”At least, I say: bear witness! The only thing that remains if we cannot resist concretely is to TESTIFY. Let’s RESIST IN OUR MINDS, let’s not be fooled, let’s not forget,”” states 102-year-old French philosopher Edgar Morin during a recent engagement in which he dropped truth bombs on the ongoing tragedy in Gaza and Israel’s atrocious acts.
Morin, one of France’s most revered intellectual figures, as well as a Jewish WW2 resistant who fought as a lieutenant in De Gaulle’s France combattante, says he is “”both astonished and outraged by the fact that those who represent the descendants of a people who were persecuted for centuries for religious or racial reasons…are today the decision-makers of the State of Israel, could not only colonize an entire people…but engage in a real massive slaughter on the population of Gaza and continue, incessantly, hitting civilians, women, and children.””
He criticises the silence of the world, especially the United States, which he defines as “”the protectors of Israel””, the EU and Arab states, who claim to defend culture, humanity and human rights but have been found wanting!
Short and powerful. Worth your time.
