If I were a Palestinian, I would fight those who occupied my land is one of the statement of Amichai "Ami" Ayalon, the former head of Shin Bet (Israel's secret service), an Israeli politician and a former member of the Knesset for the Labor Party, and commander-in-chief of the Israeli Navy.[1]

The main point

[edit]

The former head of Shin Bet (Israel's secret service) said that if he were a Palestinian, he would fight with strength against those who took his land.[2]

According to Iranian Students' News Agency, "Ami Ayalon" who was the commander of "Shayetet 13" and the Navy of the Zionist regime, then became a member of the "Knesset" for the Israeli Labor Party, then became a cabinet minister and a member of the security-political "cabinet" more than once. In an interview with foreign and Arab media, he said: "If I were a Palestinian, I would fight with Israel." Ami Ayalon was also the head of Shabak (Shin Bet) and for several decades he was responsible for investigating the main fighters of the Palestinian resistance and neutralizing their operations against Israel. Today, Ami Ayalon is in his 80s.[2]

"Ami Ayalon" has emphasized several times in interviews with Arabic and other foreign media: "Israelis cannot blame the Palestinians for their resistance to the occupation, and if I were a Palestinian, I would fight endlessly against those who are looting my land".[1][3]

"Ami Ayalon", who headed the Shabak (Shin Bet, Israel's secret service) between 1996 and 2000, explained that in 1948, Israel was established in the occupied Palestinian territories, which displaced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. Israel later occupied more land and always rejected the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.[3]

"Ayalon", the former head of Shin Bet Israel, said: "Palestinians have lost their land. Therefore, when they ask me, what would you do if you were a Palestinian? In response, I say: If someone plundered my land, I would fight him without limit."[3][1] He continued: "Palestinians consider themselves a single nation, but one of our troubles is that we see them as individuals, some of whom are good and some who are bad."[3][1][4]

According to report of Al Jazeera Mubasher, "Ami Ayalon", the former head of Israel's public security service known as Shabak, said: "If he were a Palestinian, he would fight a "borderless" battle against those who occupied his land".[4]

"Ayalon" said in an interview with the Hebrew newspaper Maariv: "They (Palestinians) have lost their land, so when people ask me: What would you do if you were a Palestinian? I say: If a person comes and takes my land, the land of Israel, as a hostage, I will fight him without limits".[4][5] "Ayalon" continued: "We think that if we provide them with ways of livelihood and food for their children, the problem will be solved, but it is not the case. They are willing to kill and be killed, but not for food. They say we need the end of occupation and return of our independence."[5] "Ayalon" clarified: "They (Palestinians) do not want what we propose. They only care about the formation of a Palestinian state."[5]

Ayalon in 1979

"Ayalon", who was a former member of the Knesset of the Zionist regime, added: "In 1923, Ze'ev Jabotinsky wrote the essay "Iron Wall". He says the same thing as me. He says: We cannot blame Palestinians. "Their land has been taken away and they will fight with us"."[5]

Earlier, "Ami Ayalon", the former Israeli official, in response to a question about the situation of Palestinians who are exposed to Israeli attacks, said: "This is the life of people who have dream of freedom but cannot see it. Whether we like it or not. "We control the lives of millions of people"." "Ayalon" also stressed: "The only way the Israelis will achieve security is when the Palestinians have hope."[6]
