Anti-racism before the Counterculture era ended

---------------------------------------------------------
A MUST-READ, ESPECIALLY FOR YOUNGER LEFTISTS
This is how strong we were before 9/11, and indeed why Jews
decided 9/11 had to happen:
(HTM) https://www.jta.org/2021/09/09/politics/20-years-ago-the-un-durban-conference-aimed-to-combat-racism-it-devolved-into-a-festival-of-hate-against-jews
[quote]20 years ago, the UN Durban Conference aimed to combat
racism. It devolved into a ‘festival of hate’ against
Jews.[/quote]
Yes! Back in those days even mainstream leftists at least tried
to be intellectually consistent! And it is consistent for
anti-racists to hate Jews!
[quote]“It was worse than I had imagined,” recalled Irwin
Cotler, a longtime Jewish human rights lawyer in Canada who
would go on to be his nation’s justice minister. “Because it was
a festival of hate.”
...
The failure of the human rights organizations present to come to
the defense of the Jewish participants, who walked out to jeers
and threats, created a rift that persists until today. Over a
dozen countries, including the U.S., Canada, Germany, France,
Italy and the United Kingdom, are boycotting this year’s Durban
conference over its antisemitic history.
...
The 1975 U.N. General Assembly resolution equating Zionism with
racism permeated the Nairobi conference. In 1991, years of
Jewish organizational advocacy and U.S. diplomacy brought about
the revocation of the resolution, fueling hope that Israel would
not be a focus at Durban.
...
In retrospect, there were signs that there were actors intent on
making Israel a focus of the conference. The main conference was
preceded in late 2000 and early 2001 by regional conferences.
The final regional conference, for Asian countries, took place
in Tehran in February 2001. Iran refused to allow Israelis and
Jewish organizations to attend.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center, another Jewish organization
accredited at the United Nations, asked the U.N. human rights
commissioner — Mary Robinson, the former president of Ireland
who was organizing the conference — to move the venue to another
Asian country. Robinson declined but pledged that she would make
the Iranians allow Jewish and Israeli representatives to attend.
Cooper: “Mary Robinson promised us up the wazoo, ‘You guys have
every right to attend the meeting in Tehran.’ But we didn’t get
the right to go until after the last planes from Paris and New
York left for Tehran so that it would be impossible for us to
reach there. And that’s where a lot of the stuff was cooked.”
Whereas Jewish and Israeli delegates could influence summary
statements at regional preparatory conferences in Africa, Latin
America and Europe, Iran’s maneuver meant that the Asian summary
document amounted to an indictment of Israel. It accused Israel
of “ethnic cleansing,” of implementing “a new kind of Apartheid”
and “a crime against humanity,” and said Zionism was “based on
race superiority.” Much of the Iran-influenced document became a
template for the NGO declaration at the Durban conference.
Cotler: “There was a six-point indictment of Israel at the
regional conference in Tehran, one of the most scurrilous
indictments of Israel since the end of the Second World War.”
The Second Intifada had been underway for almost a year by the
time the conference started, and one of its most striking
images, caught on video, persisted: The Sept. 30, 2000 killing
of Muhammad al-Durrah, a 12-year-old Palestinian caught in the
crossfire during a battle between Israeli and Palestinian
forces. Images of al-Durrah proliferated at the conference,
including on T-shirts. “Killed on September 30 2000, for being
Palestinian,” a T-shirt said on one side. On the other side it
read “Occupation = Colonialism = Racism. End Israeli apartheid.”
Burdett: “The Palestinians really had an edge here because they
have the popular vote. There were pictures of Muhammad al-Durrah
everywhere. They had the sympathy vote.”
Richard Heideman: “What we faced was phenomenal in terms of the
visible expression of hatred, not just placards but photographs,
and talking about Jews and Israelis as murderers.”[/quote]
It gets better:
[quote]Not long after they landed, the conference-goers noticed
a ubiquitous flyer with a picture of Adolf Hitler. “WHAT IF I
HAD WON?’ it asked. “The good things: There would be no Israel
and no Palestinian’s [sic] bloodshed. The bad things: I wouldn’t
have allowed the making of the new Beetle. THE REST IS YOUR
GUESS.”
...
Copies of “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” a notorious
antisemitic text, were available. Calls to the organizers to
remove the materials went unheeded.
The confrontational imagery was reflected in personal
encounters. Protesters surrounded Jewish students who set up a
stand near the press tent and screamed at them.
...
Cooper: “The Lawyers Guild from Egypt did political cartoons
that literally would have belonged in Der Sturmer. Our attempts
to get them removed were basically laughed at. So we called a
press conference. At that press conference, before we started, a
phalanx of Iranian women in black rush the press conference and
try to push over the shtender [podium] and try to kill the press
conference. They were eventually physically removed. So the
physical intimidation was there.”
Kohn: “There was a Uruguayan minister [Education Minister
Antonio Mercader] who came up to me and said it was risky, we
need protection. I mean it was unbelievable. We were at a U.N.
conference.”
On Friday, Aug. 31, the Jewish delegation learned that South
African unions were staging a massive pro-Palestinian
demonstration at the conference grounds, the Kingsmead Cricket
Stadium. Security officials warned Jewish participants to stay
away.
Cooper: “I was approached by the chief of police of Durban and
told the following: ‘Rabbi, please, I’m asking you, do not try
to go from here to the Jewish community center today.’ ‘Why not?
It’s like 2 1/2 blocks away.’ He said, ‘We cannot guarantee your
safety.’ And just then when we looked out — we went up higher
[in the stadium] — 20,000 people have been brought in by train
by the trade unions in order to do Israel apartheid protests, in
which the famous picture of the banner ‘Hitler was right’ was
hoisted. They were giving out free copies of the ‘Protocols of
Zion.’”[/quote]
This is how close we were to ressurrecting Hitlerism back then.
By the way, notice anything about the official logo of the
Durban Conference?

9/11 wiped it all away, and it has taken us 20 years to
reassemble:

Back to the main article:
[quote]Burdett: “We had put out an SMS to everyone’s cellphone,
‘Do not go near that demonstration’ because our information is
that it’s going to be heavily laced with and motivated by
antisemitism and that we should not be visible. They were
carrying signs and wearing T-shirts that said ‘Apartheid
Israel.’ Someone had gone to the townships and just distributed
T-shirts to people who just could use a shirt to wear. And so
that street demonstration was just filled with people wearing
freshly minted anti-Israel T-shirts. And so the effort to make
Israel such a prominent issue at this conference was very
organized.”
...
On the evening of Saturday, Sept. 1, the conference-goers
convened to work out the final text of the NGO declaration. It
was a chaotic scene, but the steering committee achieved a
modicum of order by allowing each group to propose an amendment
that defined the discrimination they suffer. That prompted the
Jewish delegation to propose an amendment that pushed back
against the conference’s anti-Zionism and referenced the spike
in worldwide antisemitism after the start of the Second
Intifada.
It said: “We are concerned with the prevalence of anti-Zionism
and attempts to delegitimize the State of Israel through wildly
inaccurate charges of genocide, war crimes, crimes against
humanity, ethnic cleansing and apartheid, as a virulent
contemporary form of antisemitism, leading to the firebombing of
synagogues, armed assaults against Jews, incitement to killing
and the murder of innocent Jews for their support for the
existence of the State of Israel, the assertion of the right to
self-determination of the Jewish people and the attempts through
the State of Israel to preserve their cultural and religious
identity.”
The conference overwhelmingly rejected the amendment, with only
delegations from Central Europe and the Roma joining the Jewish
delegation in favoring its inclusion.[/quote]
Turanism even then!
[quote]That was a breaking point. The entire Jewish delegation
rose to leave, and the crowd erupted in shouts and threats.
Richard Heideman: “We were walking out in a procession with
people jeering us on the sides.”
Kohn: “While we were walking we received very, very, very rude
insults, antisemitic insults and the threats of being attacked,
I mean attacked physically, attacks that were averted by the
guards of the conference, I mean, if we didn’t have the
protection of the guards …”
...
The NGO declaration, finalized after the Jewish delegates left,
called Israel a “racist nation,” pushed for reinstating the
equation of Zionism with racism and accused Israel of genocide.
Robinson, the U.N. human rights commissioner, decried the
language and refused to formally hand the voluminous final
declaration to the governments as their conference began, which
was unprecedented.
Cooper: ”The final document that was voted on after we left was
so bad that Mary Robinson herself rejected it and never gave it
over to the U.N. countries. It sank Mary Robinson.” [Robinson
had hoped to become the first female U.N. secretary-general, but
those ambitions were scuttled largely because of the Durban
debacle.]
Yet the final document was not quite a failure, according to
these participants. It created a narrative about Israel that has
now been mainstreamed on the left.[/quote]
Thanks to us! If we had gone with the False Left flow after
9/11, it would never have happened!
[quote]Cooper: “The resurrection of ‘Zionism is racism,’
everything we’re struggling with today, that script was written
and finalized under the supervision of 3,600 NGOs. There’s no
BDS [the movement to boycott, divest from and sanction Israel]
movement without the building blocks of demonization of Israel
in the global scheme of things at Durban. The narrative we’re
all struggling with today was written back then.”
Cotler: “The indictment of Israel as an apartheid state was born
in Durban. It was triggered in Durban. Durban became the tipping
point for the demonological antisemitism that we see today,
where Israel is blamed for all the evils of the world, that
Israel and the Jewish people are the enemy of good, the
embodiment of all those evils. My wife always says I came back
from Durban transformed.”
Burdett: “This was an anti-Israel message that had no
guardrails. It went right to Jewish control, and there were no
guardrails.”[/quote]
As I have explained many times previously, after anti-racists
had targeted Apartheid South Africa and Serbia, who was next on
the list? Obviously Israel! Jews knew this as well as we did,
hence orchestrated the 9/11 false flag attack in order to revive
racism. While the most immediate effect of 9/11 was mass
Islamophobia (which suits the Zionist plan perfectly, since most
of the criticism of Israel came from Islamic countries, so those
who think Muslims did 9/11 - including most False Leftists -
would turn around and sympathize with Israel), this quickly
further evolved on the right into full-blown identitarianism,
and hence the desire to create ethnostates (which also suits the
Zionist plan perfectly, since those who wanted ethnostates of
their own would have to defend the existence of the Jewish
ethnostate of Israel in order to be consistent).
Thus with one false flag attack Jews ended the Counterculture
era.

When you look at pre-9/11 social justice, jews are rarely
mentioned as anything other than something to organise against.
Compare to post-9/11 ‘social justice’, where jews are wrongly
and continuously grouped in with people who actually need
liberation. Even false-leftist “anti-zionists” give jews a
platform. All you can do is ask: what do jews need liberation
from exactly? Because they appear to be thriving.
True anti-racism, national unity, animal activism, these all
used to be at the forefront of leftist activism. Now you have
self-declared “leftists” railing against veganism as “racist”
and “classist,” calling nationalism rightist, and campaigning
for the rights of the jews and ‘white working class.’
Counterculture era social justice was glaringly superior to what
we have now.

More highlights:
(HTM) https://www.ajc.org/news/the-durban-diaries-with-an-introduction-by-ajcs-simone-rodan-benzaquen
[quote]On walls, a poster shows Nelson Mandela quoted as saying,
“Fighting for the rights of the Palestinians.” There’s a guy not
far away who is taping swastikas to the wall.
...
3:35 p.m.: At the committee on the theme “Colonialism and
Foreign Occupation,” a speaker declares: “The Jewish NGOs intend
to divide the world’s antiracist movement.” Crowds break into
applause.
5 p.m.: At the thematic committee devoted to “Ethnic Cleansing,
Conflict and Genocide,” a speaker declares that the existence of
Israel is a hate crime. Somebody asks a question about
procedure; he is booed, to shouts of “Jew, Jew, Jew.” A South
African Jew is called an “Israeli dog.”
...
My Jewish friends come to see what is going on. They start
talking to the circle gathering around. In a few seconds, our
stand is surrounded by people. NGO representatives abandon their
own stands and rush to be part of the excitement. It’s as if
nothing else but our wretched table existed in the middle of the
fair. As if giving an opinion on the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict was more pressing than any other cause. Everyone shouts
louder to be heard. The accusations become radical. “Israel is
committing genocide!” shouts a woman. Dozens of Palestinian
flags are raised and float over our table forming a rainbow of
green, red, white, and black pieces of cloth in the sky. Who
just hung them up?
A whole crowd is now surrounding us. People begin shouting: “You
should not be allowed to have a stand! You Jews, you have become
racists!”
...
2 p.m.: A man approaches Joav: “You have no right to exist, and
we shall get you!”
...
Noon: The Jewish caucus decides to hold a press conference with
two objectives. First, to denounce the antisemitic literature
circulating across the stadium. Secondly, to expose to the media
the atmosphere in which we feel constantly harassed. We invite
journalists using the theme, “You’re not a racist, right?” The
situation deteriorates to the point that an official session on
“Holocaust Revisionism,” which was to be held in the Jewish
club, had to be cancelled for security reasons.
...
2 p.m.: In a discussion devoted to “Hate Crimes, Hate Groups,
Ethnic Cleansing, Conflict, and Genocide,” a Jewish delegate
from Uruguay takes the floor. As he identifies himself, the
session chair, a Palestinian, interrupts him: “This is a
discussion about victims, and you are not a victim, sir.”
...
Revisionists are also in the room. They have come “to correct”
or rewrite history. For them, the belief that six million Jews
perished in the Holocaust is pure fiction. The Jewish lobby
invents these kinds of stories in order to inflict guilt upon
the entire world. It is a conspiracy meticulously designed to
make the world acquiesce to the Jewish desire to dominate the
globe.
Other voices in the audience assert that any Israeli action
against the Palestinians must be considered an “antisemitic
act.” They call for condemnation of “the Israeli antisemitism
practiced against the Palestinians.” Moreover, Arabs are also
Semites and thus must appear among the victims of the Holocaust
and be compensated, they exclaim. This implies that the Jew not
only colonized Palestine, but worse, colonized words and
concepts by appropriating the term “antisemitism.” Such
antisemitism is expressed through semantics, where history is
reinvented through the appropriation of terminology.
Right at this moment, dozens of people behind the entrance mount
an assault. They storm into the tent and scream at the top of
their lungs: “You are all murderers! You have Palestinian blood
on your hands!” They approach us as we gather at the center of
the room around the table where the panelists are seated. Panic
drives some to run away. “You don’t belong to the human race!”
“Chosen people? You are cursed people! I won’t speak to you, as
long as you do not remove this thing,” a man yells at David, who
is wearing a kippa.
The assault continues. “Why haven’t the Jews taken
responsibility for killing Jesus? They have sucked our blood,
all these years. We don’t want you here. Jews don’t belong in
Jordan. Jews don’t belong in Israel.” “I believe in a Jewish
state ... on Mars!” “Sharon, Golda Meir.... They are all the
same. We cannot convince Sharon to be a human being.”
The anger against us can no longer be contained. We have no
refuge. The violence becomes physical, and all that is left for
us to do is to run away.
...
The smiling man hands me a pamphlet. The pamphlet calls for the
liberation of Palestine, signed: “Hamas.” What? Hamas is here?
“You are part of Hamas?” I murmur, almost to myself. “Aiwa,
yes,” he answers me. These guys blow themselves up in
discotheques, cafes, and bus stops in Israel. “Umm ... don’t you
have any more copies?” I ask him, my voice trembling. This is
surreal. I’m alone under a tent that shelters Hamas and
Hezbollah representatives. In a UN conference against racism…
...
We show the minister all the antisemitic pamphlets that have
circulated at the Youth Summit and the NGO Forum. Some showered
Hitler with praise; others portrayed the Jews with big noses
spitting out blood.
...
On the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the assembly rejects our
proposal to “put an end to violence” and to encourage the
resumption of peace negotiations between the parties. Instead,
the text grants the Palestinians the right to defend themselves
“by any means” against the Israeli occupation. Would suicide
attacks thus be justifiable as an instrument of self-defense?
...
I snatch back the microphone: “We would also like to recall that
throughout this conference, we have been offended, intimidated,
and harassed.... We have never experienced racism before coming
here.”
Some people started booing me. “You Jews are so paranoid that
you only speak about yourselves.” “Stop being so egocentric; we
too have already experienced racism. That’s why we are here!”
...
3 p.m.: At the NGO Forum, Fidel Castro delivers a closing speech
that lasts several hours. We are not the only ones to find it
ironic that a dictator is granted the honor of concluding the
forum. The participants from the former Soviet bloc are furious.
...
9:50 p.m.: The assembly votes to adopt the principle of the
right of the victims to define their own form of discrimination.
That way, each group victimized by racism will be able to freely
express its objectives.
10 p.m.: Ten minutes after this key decision, an African
delegate from the Ecumenical Caucus requests the elimination of
our paragraph on antisemitism
...
The president immediately calls for a yes or no on the deletion
of this paragraph. Forty-two voters. In favor: thirty-nine.
Against: Our yellow vote card solitarily floats over the crowd.
At the time, nobody notices that the Central European caucus
also raised its card, as did the representatives of the Romani
caucus.
...
It was hot and raining and there was nothing to eat. When
somebody brought some sandwiches, a Russian delegate of Jewish
origin, a member of the Central European group, was asked if he
was “a friend of Palestine.” The experience was humiliating.
Until he gave an answer, he could not get anything to eat.
...
Israel is accused of “war crimes and of acts of genocide.” It is
classified as a “racist nation,” and the text calls to apply to
it “all the measures taken against the South African apartheid
regime”—meaning an embargo and the suspension of all diplomatic,
economic, and social ties. The document also calls for the
launching of an international campaign against the apartheid
movement in Israel “to break the silence of the Nations, in
particular the European Union and the United States.” The NGO
Declaration also calls for the restoration of UN Resolution
3379, equating Zionism with racism.[/quote]
(HTM) https://www.yahoo.com/news/sickening-display-hate-why-world-090028804.html
[quote]the late Rep. Tom Lantos, D-Calif., called it “the most
sickening and unabashed display of hate for Jews I had seen
since the Nazi period."
...
One person at the conference held a sign reading, “Hitler should
have finished the job.”[/quote]

I remember in one of my history/geography classes we role-played
as delegates of multiple factions in the Israeli-Palestinian
crisis trying to find a solution. I remember the solution was
Egypt donating the entire Sinai peninsula for the Palestinians.
Far from an ideal solution but I remember debates were pretty
heated. I wonder if this is still taking place at my old school
today?
This was all back in the mid 90's where I remember Israel was
getting quite a bit of not so good press. It's no coincidence
that Spielberg cranked out tons of Holocaust material in that
decade preceded by Indiana Jones. I also remember watching quite
a few anti-national socialist french movies too. Post 9/11, the
anti-NS movies had a more comedic tone like Inglorious Basterds
which was like beating a dead horse.

[quote]When we were growing up in Harlem our demoralizing series
of landlords were Jewish, and we hated them. We hated them
because they were terrible landlords, and did not take care of
the building. A coat of paint, a broken window, a stopped sink,
a stopped toilet, a sagging floor, a broken ceiling, a dangerous
stairwell, the question of garbage disposal, the question of
heat and cold, of roaches and rats--all questions of life and
death for the poor, and especially for those with children--we
had to cope with all of these as best we could. Our parents were
lashed to futureless jobs, in order to pay the outrageous rent.
We knew that the landlord treated us this way only because we
were colored, and he knew that we could not move out.
...
It is true that many Jews use, shamelessly, the slaughter of the
6,000,000 by the Third Reich as proof that they cannot be
bigots--or in the hope of not being held responsible for their
bigotry. It is galling to be told by a Jew whom you know to be
exploiting you that he cannot possibly be doing what you know he
is doing because he is a Jew. It is bitter to watch the Jewish
storekeeper locking up his store for the night, and going home.
Going, with your money in his pocket, to a clean neighborhood,
miles from you, which you will not be allowed to enter. Nor can
it help the relationship between most Negroes and most Jews when
part of this money is donated to civil rights. In the light of
what is now known as the white backlash, this money can be
looked on as conscience money merely, as money given to keep the
Negro happy in his place, and out of white neighborhoods.
One does not wish, in short, to be told by an American Jew that
his suffering is as great as the American Negro's suffering. It
isn't, and one knows that it isn't from the very tone in which
he assures you that it is.
...
Jewish history, whether or not one can say it is honored, is
certainly known: the black history has been blasted, maligned
and despised. The Jew is a white man, and when white men rise up
against oppression, they are heroes: when black men rise, they
have reverted to their native savagery. The uprising in the
Warsaw ghetto was not described as a riot, nor were the
participants maligned as hoodlums: the boys and girls in Watts
and Harlem are thoroughly aware of this, and it certainly
contributes to their attitude toward the Jews.
...
For many generations the natives of the Belgian Congo, for
example, endured the most unspeakable atrocities at the hands of
the Belgians, at the hands of Europe. Their suffering occurred
in silence. This suffering was not indignantly reported in the
Western press, as the suffering of white men would have been.
The suffering of this native was considered necessary, alas, for
European, Christian dominance. And, since the world at large
knew virtually nothing concerning the suffering of this native,
when he rose he was not hailed as a hero fighting for his land,
but condemned as a savage, hungry for white flesh. The Christian
world considered Belgium to be a civilized country; but there
was not only no reason for the Congolese to feel that way about
Belgium; there was no possibility that they could.
What will the Christian world, which is so uneasily silent now,
say on that day which is coming when the black native of South
Africa begins to massacre the masters who have massacred him so
long? It is true that two wrongs don't make a right, as we love
to point out to the people we have wronged. But one wrong
doesnít make a right, either. People who have been wronged will
attempt to right the wrong; they would not be people if they
didn't. They can rarely afford to be scrupulous about the means
they will use. They will use such means as come to hand.
Neither, in the main, will they distinguish one oppressor from
another, nor see through to the root principle of their
oppression.
...
The Jew profits from his status in America, and he must expect
Negroes to distrust him for it. The Jew does not realize that
the credential he offers, the fact that he has been despised and
slaughtered, does not increase the Negro's understanding. It
increases the Negro's rage.
...
The American Negro who is, let us say, falsely arrested, will
find it nearly impossible to bring his case to court. And this
means that because he is a native of this country--"one of your
n*****s"--he has, effectively, no recourse and no place to go,
either within the country or without. He is a pariah in his own
country and a stranger in the world. This is what it means to
have one's history and one's ties to one's ancestral homeland
totally destroyed.
This is not what happened to the Jew and, therefore, he has
allies in the world. That is one of the reasons no one has ever
seriously suggested that the Jew be nonviolent. There was no
need for him to be nonviolent. On the contrary, the Jewish
battle for Israel was saluted as the most tremendous heroism.
How can the Negro fail to suspect that the Jew is really saying
that the Negro deserves his situation because he has not been
heroic enough? It is doubtful that the Jews could have won their
battle had the Western powers been opposed to them. But such
allies as the Negro may have are themselves struggling for their
freedom against tenacious and tremendous Western opposition.
...
Finally, what the American Negro interprets the Jew as saying is
that one must take the historical, the impersonal point of view
concerning one's life and concerning the lives of one's kinsmen
and children. "We suffered, too," one is told, "but we came
through, and so will you. In time."
In whose time? One has only one life. One may become reconciled
to the ruin of one's children's lives is not reconciliation. It
is the sickness unto death. And one knows that such counselors
are not present on these shores by following this advice. They
arrived here out of the same effort the American Negro is
making: they wanted to live, and not tomorrow, but today. Now,
since the Jew is living here, like all the other white men
living here, he wants the Negro to wait. And the Jew
sometimes--often--does this in the name of his Jewishness, which
is a terrible mistake. He has absolutely no relevance in this
context as a Jew. His only relevance is that he is white and
values his color and uses it.
He is singled out by Negroes not because he acts differently
from other white men, but because he doesn't.
...
No more than the good white people of the South, who are really
responsible for the bombings and lynchings, are ever present at
these events, do the people who really own Harlem ever appear at
the door to collect the rent. One risks libel by trying to spell
this out too precisely
...
A genuinely candid confrontation between American Negroes and
American Jews would certainly prove of inestimable value. But
the aspirations of the country are wretchedly middle-class and

"why do Turanians beat their horses even when they're already
dead? :D"
This is why I feel we should do away with non-Aryan idioms. For
example, the popular phrase "kill two birds with one stone",
which is obviously an appeal to Gentile blood memory, can be
discarded in favor of something like "fell two mangoes with one
stone". My father would constantly encourage me to use the
latter whenever I used the former.

[quote]BEIRUT (AP) — An aging Japanese militant who spent more
than a decade in an Israeli prison for his part in a deadly
attack on Tel Aviv’s airport showed up in Beirut on Monday at an
event commemorating the 50th anniversary of the attack.
Kozo Okamoto, 74, served 12 years in an Israeli lockup for a May
30, 1972 attack on the international airport outside Tel Aviv
that was thought to be carried out by members of the Japanese
Red Army guerrilla group.
...
In the 1972 attack, Okamoto and two of his colleagues arrived in
Tel Aviv on a flight from Europe, then collected their bags, in
which they had packed rifles and grenades and opened fire,
killing and wounding dozens, according to AP reports.
The two Japanese with Okamoto were killed in the attack while he
was wounded. Okamoto was later put on trial in Israel and
sentenced to life in prison.
...
He is considered a hero by many in Lebanon and the Arab world
for championing the Palestinian cause and opposing Israel.
During the opening session of his trial in Lebanon in 1997,
Okamoto was asked if he had used a forged passport to enter
Lebanon and he told the Beirut Criminal Court: ″I don’t
understand why I am facing a charge of using a forged passport.”
“I am an Arab resistance fighter,″ he said. ″I did
it for the Palestinian cause.″[/quote]
