Let us be the first to decree that the conflict between Israel and the palestinians is neither simple, one-sided or free for the innocent victims on both sides. The representative of the Fellesutvalget for Palestine’s unilateral attempt to present Israel as a monster, helps not, however, to a constructive debate about this.

Israel is probably the middle east’s only real democracy, with citizens of many religions with equal democratic rights. After that the jews were attempted to be wiped out after the genocide against 6 million jews during the holocaust, it was Israel their new home. It is a country, which, despite a difficult and at times violent conflict, striving strong to prevent the innocent loss of life and help the palestinians with the need for various types of medical assistance.
In addition, it is a country with impressive innovation and kulturkraft, at the same time as it has faced a boycott, isolation and existential threats from several of its arab neighboring countries.
Alarming reminder of our grotesque past
Israel deserve not some special treatment from Norway. It deserves, however, the treatment on an equal footing with all other countries. Tyssen their demoniserende line towards Israel is the opposite of this.

It that there is a conflict between the israelis and the palestinians is, however, not enough to demonisere one of the sides. Our greatest contribution to the israelis and the palestinians must be to encourage, and facilitate, a framforhandlet solution between both parties, that safeguards the region’s security at the same time as it provides both the israelis and the palestinians predictability and peace for the future.
We are proud of the government’s positive attitude to the increased cooperation with Israel. We also hope that lasting peace will soon come between Israel, the arab countries and the palestinian people, and taking the distance from the Tyssen their demonisering of the middle east’s only real democracy.
O thou holy one of Israel!
