Brussels – Jean-Pascal Labille, former federal minister and current boss of Solidaris, published on social networks a drawing showing Israeli soldiers shooting in a Palestinian enclosure displaying a Star of David merging with a swastika, under the passive gaze of the United States and the European Union.
The publication caused a stir, which prompted the socialist to withdraw this publication and apologize. ” This sharing was too rapid and clumsy. My primary intention was to denounce the passivity of the international community. In this war of civilizations, justice is not being done to the Palestinian people, we (the States, the political figures) have the duty to defend dialogue,” commented Mr. Labille.
He added: “I regret having done it. I did not sufficiently understand that this drawing was controversial. I offer my deep apologies. (…) I would have liked “I am sure of the discussions with my colleagues internally, but the main thing is to apologize and to mobilize so that these two great peoples, Israelis and Palestinians, can live together.”
