The obituaries for Shimon Peres have already appeared, no doubt
prepared in advance as the news of his hospitalization reached the
media.
The verdict on his life is very clear and was already pronounced
by US President Barack Obama: Peres was a man who changed the course of
human history in his relentless search for peace in the Middle East.
My guess is that very few of the obituaries will examine Peres’ life
and activities from the perspective of the victims of Zionism and
Israel.
He occupied many positions in politics that had immense impact on the
Palestinians wherever they are. He was director general of the Israeli
defense ministry, minister of defense, minister for development of the
Galilee and the Negev (Naqab), prime minister and president.
In all these roles, the decisions he took and the policies he pursued
contributed to the destruction of the Palestinian people and did
nothing to advance the cause of peace and reconciliation between
Palestinians and Israelis.
