ONG anti-israéliennes en Europe: l'entreprenant M. Shoukri

Comme nous l'indiquions dans le post précédent un certain Arafat Madi Shoukri a été invité par le Président du Parlement européen en mars 2010 (Le Président du Parlement européen a reçu une ONG proche du Hamas et du Hezbollah) Nous déplorions qu'aucun des 736 eurodéputés n'ait émis de protestation, ne fût-ce que pour la forme, en soulignant qu'il est fort improbable que lui ou des représentants de son ONG soient reçus par le Président du Sénat américain...  Notons qu'Israël a déclaré que l'ONG était illégale.  Notons également que très récemment, le 24 mai 2011, l'eurodéputée belge Véronique De Keyser, dont on connaît l'hostilité très médiatisée envers Israël, a eu une réunion avec le directeur du Council for European Palestinian Relations, une des multiples casquettes de M. Shoukri.

Voici une vidéo où le très entreprenant Arafat Shoukri s'amuse du mauvais tour fait à Israël ("tout Israël nous attend") en envoyant la flotille turco-européenne à Gaza l'année dernière et quelques rapports trouvés sur le Web sur les ONG où il exerce des activités importantes.

Rapport du Palestinian The Meir Amit Return Centre Intelligence and Terrorism: The Palestinian Return Centre: London-based center for anti-Israeli propaganda, affiliated with Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, outlawed in Israel. It promotes the demand of the Palestinian refugees to return as a way of destroying Israel. Senior PRC figures send flotillas and convoys to the Gaza Strip and transfer funds to Hamas. (Consulter le rapport en version PDF).  Extrait:

"Three members of the PRC’s board of trustees are Hamas activists who found refuge in Britain in the 1990s. They do not admit to their links with Hamas, in our assessment to avoid complications with British law. Prominent among them are three Hamas activists: Zaher al-Birawi, chairman of the PRC’s board of trustees; Majed al-Zeer, PRC general director; and Sheikh Majdi Akeel, a member of the PRC’s board of trustees.[4]

The above three Hamas activists are involved in extensive anti-Israeli activities aimed at providing Hamas with ideological, political and practical support. For example, Zaher al-Birawi was active in dispatching convoys to the Gaza Strip through George Galloway’s organization, Viva Palestina, with the political goal of strengthening the de facto Hamas administration. Majed al-Zeer participated in anti-Israeli events in European cities and in Damascus in support of Hamas, its political agenda and its strategy of terrorism. Sheikh Majdi Akeel is an activist of Interpal, which sends money to Hamas, and accompanied one of the Viva Palestina aid convoys to Hamas in the Gaza Strip[5] (See Appendix II for information about PRC activists). In addition to those three, according to our information Arafat Madi Shukri, PRC operational director, is also a Hamas activist who lives in Britain and is the chairman of the ECESG (a European umbrella organization which sends flotillas to the Gaza Strip)."

L'ONG a été déclarée illégale par le gouvernement israélien.  Traduit de l'anglais:

"On December 5, 2010 the Israel defense minister signed an order designating the Palestinian Return Centre as an organization unlawful in Israel.


The Centre, which was established in London in 1996, officially announced that its activity was meant exclusively to further the cause of the Palestinian refugees. However, in reality it serves as the organizational and coordinating arm of the Hamas movement in Europe. Its activists, who are senior Hamas movement figures, work to promote the movement’s objectives in Europe and maintain direct contact with senior Hamas figures, including the movement heads in Damascus.

The Centre is headed by various Hamas activists, among them, Majed al-Zeer, Zaher Birawi and Majdi Akeel. Another is Ghassan Faour, who is also on the board of trustees of Interpal. Interpal was designated as a terrorist organization by both Israel and the United States because it is one of the main components in global network funding Hamas.

In recent years the Centre has had a leading role in the European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza (ECESG), and led by Arafat Mahdi, one of its top activists, was involved in planning the violent May 2010 Mavi Marmara flotilla. Those actions were undertaken in collaboration with the Turkish IHH and other Hamas funds in Europe and elsewhere.

In addition, the Centre had been involved in initiating and organizing violent, radical activities against the State of Israel in Europe, activities meant to subvert Israel’s standing in European public opinion. To that end the Centre has organized conferences in many European countries attended not only by its own activists but by Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood activists from around the world, including representatives of funds and foundations which support Hamas in Europe, and representatives from Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

In recent years, recorded speeches have been broadcast at conferences, delivered by senior Hamas figures, including Ismail Haniya, head of the Hamas administration in the Gaza Strip, who were banned from entering Europe because the movement was outlawed by the European Union.

The Palestinian Return Centre’s activities are part of Hamas’ activities in the Palestinian communities in Europe in general and Britain in particular. They belong to the overall undertaking conducted by Hamas around the world to support its activities in the internal Palestinian arena.

Thus, as noted, on December 5, 2010, the defense minister outlawed the Palestinian Return Centre since it is part of Hamas.
