Iranian Judiciary chief expresses concern about "Israeli" atrocities

IRNA, 10-7-2006
Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi on Monday expressed concern about human tragedy in the occupied territories of Palestine perpetrated by occupying regime of "Israel".
He said that the Zionist regime has embarked on committing inhuman atrocities against the Palestinians by launching a full scale military operation, laying siege on Palestinian residential areas, blocking transport of food and medical supplies to them.
Ayatollah Shahroudi criticized the western-style democracy as supporter of the murderers and those trampling upon the human rights of Palestinians.
"The so-called advocates of democracy and human rights are supporters of the murderers and "Israeli" state terrorism," he said.
He called on the Islamic states to rush to the help of Palestinians b providing them food and medical supplies and urged international organizations to condemn "Israeli" military operations against Palestinian civilians.
Scores of Palestinians have been killed during renewed "Israeli" violence and military action against defenseless Palestinians in the past two weeks.
"Israeli" military attacks against Gaza City and the West Bank take toll on Palestinians every day to the extent that observers describe them as systematic killing of Palestinians.
