DESK TEHRAN In a rare move on Tuesday, Israeli Parliament Speaker Avraham Burg condemned the Zionist regime's occupation of Palestinian territories. In an interview with the Qatari Al Jazeera television network, Burg denounced the policy, much to the displeasure of Israeli officials and right-wing MPs. He repeatedly said that the occupation of the Palestinian territories could lead to corruption in Israel and would only create scandals for the regime. Earlier this week some 50 Israeli army officers were reported to have been on strike and refused to attack Palestinian ruled areas in protest of the occupation policies of the Zionist regime. They said fighting for the settlers who had occupied the Palestinian lands was by no means a defensive act, and was merely part of the criminal policies of Israel. kind space length 1 string category
