Yasser Qashlaq, among Organizers of Lebanese Flotilla: I Hope Our Ships Will Take the "Dregs of European Garbage" from Israel Back to Their Own Countries

Following are excerpts from an interview with Palestinian-Lebanese journalist Yasser Qashlaq, of the Free Palestine Movement, which aired on Al-Manar TV on June 18, 2010.
 

Yasser Qashlaq: Whenever that criminal gang of Israeli pirates seizes a ship, I become more optimistic that the day will come when these ships will carry these dregs of European garbage back to their own countries. Let Gilad Shalit return to Paris. Let those murderers return to Poland. Once they are back there, we will hunt them down to the end of the world, and prosecute them for their massacres, from Deir Yassin to this day.
 

[...]
 

I would like to say something to the Israeli people.
 

Interviewer: To the settlers.
 

Yasser Qashlaq: Yes, to that gang of criminal murderers. Board the ship we are sending you, and return to your countries. Don’t be misled by the Arab leaders or the moderate camp. You will never be able to make peace with us. Our children will return [to Palestine]. There is no reason for coexistence. Even if some of our leaders or regimes sign [peace] with you – we will never sign. Do not be misled by these regimes. Return to your countries.
