Murderer of Thousands of Palestinians Is Dead
Peres, who had been hospitalized after suffering a stroke two weeks ago, died on Wednesday at 93.
He served as the Zionist regime’s foreign minister under his Labor Party rival Yitzhak Rabin, became prime minister between 1984 and 1986, and then again during 1995-96 after Rabin’s death. He also served as the regime’s president from 2007 to 2014.
Under Peres’s tenure as president, two full-scale wars were launched against the Israeli-blockaded Gaza Strip, which killed some 40,000 Palestinians, including women and children.
He, however, slammed as "outrageous” and "one-sided” a United Nations inquiry that blamed Israel for six serious attacks on UN buildings during the first Gaza offensive and said Tel Aviv would not apologize for defending its people.
