Ralph Nader on Gaza: The World’s Largest Open-Air Gulag

Once upon a time; there was a famous hell on earth called the “Russian Gulag” then came “The American Gulag” at Guantanamo Cuba that refuses to go although USA’s first black president got elected on a promise to close it within 6 months into office but 3 years hence; the American Gulag is alive and well while its prisoners languish in hell waiting for trials and judgment day that may never come. In medicine; the hardest to cure are people who are not sick similarly; the hardest to prosecute in the field of law are people who are innocent. Gaza is “Israel’s Gulag” that the world helped to build through the United Nations. It is the world’s refusal to admit its own demons that led to the founding of Israel that it turned a blind eye to the Zionist’s brutal conquest of Palestine. GAZA SYMBOLIZES THE SINS OF THE WORLD…

The World’s Largest Open-Air Gulag
by RALPH NADER

Have you heard much lately about the 1.5 million Palestinians illegally imprisoned by the Israeli government in the world’s largest open-air Gulag? Their dire living conditions, worsened by a selective Israeli siege limiting the importation of necessities of life – medical items, food, water, building materials, and fuel to list a few – has resulted in an 80 percent unemployment rate and widespread suffering from unlawful punishment, arbitrary arrests and imprisonment in Israeli jails.


The horrific conditions were a result of the Israeli invasion of Gaza in late 2008, ignited by Israel’s breaking of a truce with Gaza on November 4. Fourteen hundred people died, nearly three hundred of them children, and thousands were injured. The terror bombing of the Gazan population smashed into homes, hospitals, schools, ambulances, mosques, subsistence farms, UN facilities, and even the American International School. Israeli bombers destroyed over 30 members of one extended family in their home. That toll alone was three times the amount of Israeli fatalities, which included friendly fire.


The humanitarian crisis in crowded Gaza – about twice the size of the District of Columbia – “is now more dire than ever.” That is the judgment of Norwegian physician and professor of medicine, Dr. Mads Gilbert, who just finished a ten-day speaking tour in the U.S. Dr. Gilbert, returning from a recent visit to Gaza, was one of the only two foreign doctors inside Gaza during the massacre of December 2008 to January 2009.


He says: “During the Israeli attack, I saw the effects of new weapons including drones, phosphorous and also DIME [Dense Inert Metal Explosives], which leave no shrapnel, but I witnessed their capacity to cut a child in two; they also leave radioactive traces.”
