Arab countries lack of support to Haiti?

[daveinprague]

Yes back to the original question, and not a religiously/racially biased question.

What countries, muslim or otherwise, have not provided assistance?
Youre well on top of what the Arab countries are doing, so im guessing your research includes non arab countries.
Otherwise, lets be brutally honest here, youre speaking from a racially biased perspective.
Stop denying it, as it makes you look even more daft.

..and why are you not saying how much you have contributed...Its clear its nothing, but why are you afraid to admit that?

 

[Westdene Seagull]

This debate as I have said previously is no against Muslims, Arabs or anyone else.

I suggest you re-read the question you asked !!!! You would appear to be tying yourself in knots.

Well the Metro's front page today informs us that computer gaming is causing rickets. Bloody uncaring Europeans

Tend to agree but the below may help...

Gush Shalom - Israeli peace bloc

Jews for Justice for Palestinians

A time to speak out: Independent Jewish Voices - Home Page

And your point is what?

These people are in the minority, Israel has lurched to the right over the last few years and Palestinians are still having their rights denied, land stolen and are being oppressed by Israel who are trying to crush the Palestinian people and their aspirations out of existence!!!

What a complete load of rollocks you spout.
Been to Israel or Palestine? No I suspect. I will be there in two weeks time & will see what life is like for the downtrodden Arabs who total 350 million by the Jewish nation of some 7 million.

You do spout some utter .....

You're the one spouting rubbish. There may be 350 million Arabs across all the Arab nations but certainly not in Gaza and Israel. The people who are downtrodden are the Palestinians and the people doing the tredding are the Israelis. You're conviently mixing up Arabs, Jews, Palestinians and Israelis in your arguements.

Yes, you're right on that aspect BB, Israel has lurched to the right in recent times, and the Peace Now movement in Israel is in the minority. However, do you suppose that the 60 or 70 katuysha rockets that landed on Israeli border towns daily, prior to the Gaza invasion might have played it's part in he scheme of things. As I've said on previous threads, i am sympathetic to the Palestinians plight, having been to israel myself many times, but it's simple, if you aspire to peace, stop sending rockets into Israel from Gaza and S. Lebanon, stop blowing up cafes in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv etc, stop provoking Israel into responding, and you might get the peace that most people either Palestinian or Jewish want. Violence just plays into the hands of the extremists on both sides.

Just saying like.

The point is you are conflating anti-zionism and anti-semitism. Do you hold all Christians responsible for the mass slaughter that accompanied European imperialism ? Jew may be pro-zionist, anti-zionist or not really give a toss. Much like anyone else.

I have no idea if it is deliberate or not but you seem to be suggesting that Jews of whatever nationality or whatever political viewpoint have a collective responsibility for decisions made by a gang of right-wing nationalists in Israel.

Iran Sends 30 Tons of Humanitarian Aid to Haiti

The Society of the Red Dawn (IRCS) sent 30 tons of aid to the humanitarian devastation in Haiti caused by a powerful earthquake, a gesture that was imitated by other Arab and African nations.

A cargo plane left Teheran on Saturday with food, tents and medicines coordinated by the IRCS that is also known as the Red Half Moon, equivalent of the Red Cross, confirmed the head of the Iranian institution, Ahmad Estandiyari.

Estandiyari also mentioned sugar, tinned tuna and detergents among the goods sent to the Caribbean nation that was hit Tuesday by an earthquake of 7.3 degrees in the open Richter scale.

The Persian nation joined other states from different parts of the world who mobilized human resources, materials and funds to aid the hundreds of thousands of Haitian victims.

Among the first Arab nations to send aid to that devastated and impoverished nation are Qatar and United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Jean Ping, president of the African Union Commission meeting in El Cairo to organize the second Afro Arab summit expressed his appreciation to the secretary general of the Arab League, Amr Moussa for the aid organized for Haiti among its 22 member nations.

According to the official news agency of the Emirates, WAM, in two days the first plane will leave through an organized air bridge to the Dominican Republic by its president, sheik Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan to deliver urgent humanitarian aid for the victims of the quake.

SCR head of the UAE, Ahmed Al Mazrouie indicated that the government transferred funds to aid institutions to support operations of aid in the Caribbean nation and local authorities will travel to Santo Domingo to coordinate and supervise delivery.

Diplomatic Dominican sources told Prensa Latina yesterday of the arrangements being made by its chancellor, Carlos Morales Troncoso, with the Arab Emirate leaders.

I think Mr Foster is now suitably corrected!

If were talking percentages here you may wish to know that when Israel was re-established and the boundary lines drawn, the palestinians were forced into 22% of their original territory by a minority group.

My studies have lead to much learning in this area and if you want a full informed debate ill give you one but I fear your ability to assimulate fact is bound up by your prejudice.......

Sorry why are Al-queada my masters?

And what part was rubbish? Para 1 is of course subjective, para 2 is fact and para 3 very likely to happen in the not too distant future!!

A Nazi style israeli stae. Are you serious?

If you use the langauge of exstremists and parrot their propganda then people will draw conclusions.

If I refered to Haiti as a "****** state" would it be reasonable to assume i was a racist and a bnp supporter?

You refer to the "murder" of hamas officials, an avowed anti-semetic organisation and terrorist one shows were your loyalty lies.

Hell no
