Peacekeeper? Quneitra
Open-door diplomacy
Quneitra in southern Syria was occupied by Israeli forces from 1967 until 1974. Prior to the invasion, the city was the thriving market centre for that area called the Golan, and home to some 53,000 persons who were both Christian and Muslim. On June 26th 1974, after complicated peace negotiations, Syrian civil authorities and United Nations Emergency Forces entered Quneitra immediately after Israeli withdrawal. They found what is seen in some of these photographs. Israel, at once, with their usual disregard for the truth, officially stated that the destruction was through Syrian military action. Subsequent eyewitness accounts, written and filmed evidence, irrevocably proved those statements to be completely false. With comprehensive news and documentary film coverage, the city became famous, or rather infamous, as a complete example of the well-practised Israeli technique of occupation, or euphemistically referred to as 'creation of facts'. It took over a year for Prime Minister Yitzak Rabin to tacitly admit (6/9/75 Israel State Radio) that Israel was responsible for the deliberate destruction of Quneitra before its withdrawal. Since 1948, Israel has razed at least 392 towns, villages and hamlets in Palestine and Syria, causing untold misery. I was one of the very few allowed into the desecrated city very soon after Israel's departure. Some fifty years on, and Israel remains the obdurate, destructive force it has always been, Gaza being the most recent example, with the West Bank and possibly Lebanon also lined up.
