He said Israel should be allowed to desecrate international law, adding that Israel should be subjected to the provisions of the law.
Shawesh spoke during a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday.
He said, “International law must be respected, especially international humanitarian law and human rights law. There should be no exception or impunity for Israel, and it should not be above the law.
“It is time for the international community to stand firm and united in support of international law. Everyone around the world should raise their voice loudly at this historical juncture.
Shawesh also lampooned Western leaders for reneging on their promises to protect his people.
He said, “All the talk of Western leaders about protecting Palestinian civilians is empty talk, lip service, and no more than throwing ash in the eyes.
“The double standards, the hypocrisy, and the full support and sponsorship of many Western countries encourage Israel to implement its old plans of expelling the Palestinian people from Gaza to the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula in a clear attempt to repeat the ethnic cleansing that the Palestinians were subjected to in 1948.”
He also decried the spate of propaganda against his people.
Shawesh said, ‘’Some media outlets are waging a dirty war against the Palestinian people by broadcasting and distributing dozens of false and fake news stories with the aim of portraying the Palestinians as murderers, thugs, and inferior subhuman beings in a re-engineering of the global consciousness towards full acceptance of the Israeli genocide and war crimes against the Palestinian people currently underway.”
