Anwar: Najib's gov't supports Israel and Palestine states too...

Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim today said that while he has been accused of supporting the security of Israel, the Malaysian government too supports the Jewish state, and its stance is similar to his.

He said this support is contingent on the creation of an independent Palestine state and respecting the rights of its people based on the two state-solution.  

Quoting Foreign Minister Anifah Aman's (bottom left) statement at the United Nations General Assembly last year, he pointed that Anifah had said: "Malaysia fully supports the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people for an independent State of Palestine, based on the two-state solution, taking into account the security concerns of both parties (Israel and Palestine)."

"Clearly from the foreign minister's statement, Malaysia's policy is of preparedness to respect the rights of the Palestinians and Israelis to live in peace based on the guarantee that the rights of the Palestinians are not violated," said Anwar in a statement yesterday.

Anwar blasted quarters who had accused him of betraying the Palestinian cause, stressing that if a Palestinian state is allowed, then the rights of Israel should also be respected.

"I give a stern warning to any quarters who try to twist my words to slander me that I supposedly have betrayed the aspirations of the Palestinian people," he said.

Yesterday, Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin called on Anwar to explain his alleged commitment to uphold Israel's security.

This follows Anwar's Thursday interview in the Wall Street Journal which reported him as saying that he supported efforts to protect Israel's security but any relation with the Jewish state depends on its willingness to respect the Palestinian aspirations.

Gomen Najib pun sokong negara Palestin dan Isreal,jadi apa masalahnya...

Ketua Pembangkang Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim mendakwa kenyataannya berhubung isu Israel dan Palestin diputar belit bagi menggambarkan beliau mengkhianati aspirasi rakyat Palestin. Katanya, dalam wawancaranya dengan media antarabangsa Khamis lalu, beliau menegaskan kemahuan dan hak rakyat Palestin mesti dibela dan jika syarat itu dipenuhi maka wajar hak rakyat Israel juga dihormati.

"Justeru saya memberi amaran keras kepada mana-mana pihak yang cuba memutar belit kenyataan saya semata-mata mahu menyebar fitnah kononnya saya mengkhianati aspirasi rakyat Palestin.

"Pendirian PKR adalah tuntas membela hak sesiapa sahaja yang dirampas dan dizalimi. Iltizam untuk memastikan keadilan buat semua tidak pernah surut malah pastinya digilap dan diperkukuh," katanya.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin semalam dilapor meminta Anwar memberi penjelasan tentang dakwaan memberi komitmen untuk mempertahankan Israel ketika ditemuramah oleh Wall Street Journal. Muhyiddin menimbulkan persoalan sama ada Anwar mementingkan Israel dan menidakkan hak rakyat Palestin yang ditindas oleh rejim Yahudi itu.

"Adakah dia (Anwar) lebih mengutamakan Yahudi dan Israel daripada Palestin? Adakah ini pendirian sebenar Pakatan Rakyat, sedangkan kerajaan tidak mengadakan hubungan diplomatik dengan Israel," beliau dipetik sebagai berkata kepada pemberita di Muar semalam.

Dalam kenyataan balasnya, Anwar berkata, pandangannya sejajar dengan prinsip PKR yang menjunjung keadilan sejagat dan tegas membela hak yang dizalimi, serta selari dengan resolusi Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (PBB) dan Inisiatif Keamanan Arab berteraskan "Penyelesaian Dua Negara".

Malahan, katanya, dasar luar negara juga menekankan prinsip penyelesaian itu, sebagaimana diungkapkan menteri luar ketika perbahasan perhimpunan agung PBB ke-66 pada 27 September tahun lalu di New York.

"Ternyata dari kenyataan menteri luar negara, dasar Malaysia adalah bersedia menghormati hak rakyat Palestin dan Israel untuk menikmati keamanan dan kedamaian.
 
"Akan tetapi kesediaan kita pastinya bergantung kepada syarat selagi mana hak rakyat Palestin tidak dicerobohi," katanya.
