Tehran, YJC. Majidi has raised voice over killing civilians in Gaza.
Filmmaker Majid Majidi in an open letter
expressed outrage over current unrest over Gaza and said "Death to and fie on
human rights organizations whose ears have grown deaf and whose eyes cannot
sea.”
ISNA reports that Majidi added "It is sure that
in their sightless eye, all these defenseless women and children who are killed
are not human.”
"I know a land which has been subject to
injustice as much as a history. A land where their weapons is belief in God, people
who brandish their breasts against bombs and missiles, who have to protection against
violent attacks by evil,” Majidi’s letter reads.
"Fie on human rights organizations whose
eyes and ears are blind and deaf and who do not see all the injustice that a
nation is suffering. To their sightless eyes all these defenseless women and
children are sure not to be seen as human,” he wrote.
"My words address neither human rights
entities, neither Western governments or Arab governments, who, if they had a
hind of decency, there must have not been anything as Zionism today. I am
addressing the free people of the world. How can one watch tens of tons of bomb
pouring upon a helpless nation and a world going on in its deadly silence?” he
adds.
