“The Finance Minister of the Zionist regime has described as “justified and moral” the deliberate starvation to death of two million Palestinians in order to free the “hostages” of this regime.

Remarks by this member of the criminal Zionist club are only overt confession and announcement; otherwise, the world has been witness in the past 10 months to the Zionists’ genocidal acts and mass murder of innocent women, children and other civilians in #Gaza by uninterrupted strikes, deliberate starvation and hunger.

The world must have understood by now that the Zionist criminal club will obey the international law only if it is confronted by pressure and decisive action; otherwise it does not recognize any limit for its crimes and heinous acts.

Such outrageous and horrendous remarks are vehemently condemned from the moral and human viewpoint as well as international rules and regulations and deserve international prosecution. However, instead of verbally condemning these remarks, Europe is better act in accordance with its international, moral and human obligations against the Zionist regime and immediately cease European political and military support for the criminal regime. Condemnation without action is insufficient,” the post by the diplomat noted.
