Kenyan lawmaker in trouble for wearing Palestine scarf | |
2023-10-28 | |
Farah Maalim, the MP for Dadaab and a former Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly was ordered to remove the scarf during the Wednesday parliamentary sitting, with the speaker terming it "unparliamentary". Maalim sits in the speaker's Panel. For the last two weeks, Maalim has been criticizing Israel for "violation of human rights ...not to be confused with individual rights,mind you... " after it emerged that the Israel Defence Forces was targeting civilians instead of the Hamas ![]() terror group. The Hamas started fighting with Israel, in the renewed conflict within the Middle East. He said Paleostine "needs the support of everybody in Kenya". Speaker Moses Wetangula, who was the chairman of the session, ordered Maalim to remove the scarf arguing that it was in breach of parliamentary rules of the Republic of Kenya. Fellow MPs also condemned the politician for "disrespecting" the House rules. It comes a few days after Kenyan police briefly detained three people for participating in a pro-Paleostinian meeting in the capital, Nairobi. A fortnight ago, President William Ruto expressed solidarity with the people of Israel, in a message which was met with mixed reaction. Some of his critics accused him of siding with Israel despite credible "evidence" of mass violation of human rights within the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... Strip. The war is entering its third week with a total of 6,000 people already dead. Israel had threatened ground invasion in Gaza but the move was halted after the US asked for some time to avail necessary fighting equipment in support of Israel Defence Forces. | |
