Araz Alizade: "When now Israel says that it is just defending itself from aggression, it is telling a lie"

"When Israel says that it is just defending itself from aggression, it is telling a lie", said co-chair of the Social-Democratic Party of Azerbaijan Araz Alizade.
According to him, it is Israel which is to be blamed for the next round of tensions in the Gaza strip.

"Israel merely wanted to take revenge for its first biggest defeat in Lebanon, in order to prove again that Israel is the strongest force in the Near East", said he.  

"However, Israel forgets the simple truth: a state, holding an aggressive policy, will lose sooner or later, like it was in the case of the UN invasion of Vietnam and Iraq, USSR invasion of Afghanistan and like it will be in case of the Armenian occupation of Azerbaijani lands.

As for the silence or open pro-Israeli position of western countries in this conflict, he said:

"First, the UN Security Council adopted a resolution on the situation in the Near East, demanding Israel to stop the offensive.

Moreover, the document demands the immediate opening of access points to Gaza for the limitless supply of humanitarian aide there. Yet, the United States have imposed a veto on the UN resolution, aimed to stop offensive by Israel in the Gaza strip. In the result, under the veto, the UN security could make the execution of the resolution on the goodwill ceasefire by Israel and immediate stoppage of offensive "non-obligatory".

Is it a surprise? No. As is known, money rules the world. Money which belongs to the Jewish capital, that rules in the United States. That is why, the biggest superpower as the United States will never condemn Israel for its actions. Such a support makes Israel more confident in its actions.

As for the Arabian world, the current events prove that there is no Arabian or Islamic unity. Each of the Arabian states adheres to its own interests and therefore, there will never be solidarity among these countries", said Alizade and added that in the end of this stage of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict Arabians will feel Israel's strength, Palestinian state will not be created, while Israel will further be so caddish.
