Open letter to the Arab League

OPEN LETTER TO THE SECRETARY - GENERAL OF THE LEAGUE OF ARAB NATIONS AMR MOUSSA
C/O The Ambassador of The Arab Republic of Egypt26 South StreetLondon,W1K 1DW.Dear Ambassador,
We the coalition of people who want to speak out for Peace as a Voice of Reason, wish to call on all honest people and those who love peace to stand up and condemn Hamas and its allies for resuming rocket attacks after a period of agreed ceasefire with the State of Israel. Nobody wishes to see the Palestinian population subjected to the same blockade to which the Nigerian Government and its Allies subjected Biafra to between 1967-1970. We all know what happened to the lives of millions of the Biafran people. We feel that continued broadcasting of pro-Hamas protests by the media is irrational, biased against Israel, dangerous to the welfare of ordinary Palestinian people whom Hamas is hiding behind to carry out a proxy war for the enemies of Israel.
In our opinion, those who are joining pro-Hamas protests are enemies of the Palestinian people joining a misguided protest is condoning and partaking in the actions of an organisation that should be encouraged to seek peace not war. Peace between Israel and Palestine should be the motive of any progressive protester and activist. We are dismayed by the indifference and unjust posture of the world community in the Palestinian and Israeli conflict as they were during the Biafran-Nigerian conflict of 1967-1970.
The State of Israel has shown restraint, humility and understanding of the plight of ordinary Palestinian people even when faced with the daily rocket attacks. If the world has forgotten, may we remind the world community that the Nigerian blockade of Biafra for 3 years starved to death 2 million civilians while Biafrans where also bombed by Egyptian and Russian aircraft, leading to the deaths of thousands of women and children being killed in market squares, churches and their homes. We remain empathetic to the suffering of both Palestinian and Israeli civilians who have been caught up in this conflict. But we would appeal through the Arab league, the Palestinian people and the Palestinian authorities to make peace with Israel and publicly distance themselves, physically, politically and socially from Hamas militant activities. The rational world should come out and condemn unequivocally Hamas provocation of Israel and their determined posture to attack the Israeli civilian population. We can no longer hide from the fact that no government in the world would fold their hands while being subjected to terrorist intimidation and threats by rocket attack.To prevent further loss of lives on both sides of the conflict we are appealing to Hamas to cease attacking Israel and follow the example of Egypt and Jordan to sign a Peace Treaty with Israel. Only a peaceful environment will produce a progressive and viable Palestinian state. The example shown by Egypt and Jordan is sustainable evidence to demonstrate that Israel wants peace with its neighbours and Israel can maintain agreed Peace Treaties.
Finally, the Good Shepherds Movement and the Biafran Community in the United Kingdom is calling on the Arab league and those who want peace for the Palestinian people and State of Israel to put pressure on Hamas to stop all militant action and give peace a chance.

Thank you,
