Sharon Might Be Arrested In Norway
By Hanne Dankertsen
Torstein Dahle (right), leader of RV, is pointing out a number of incidents in Sharon's time as General when he was leading attacks on Palestinian civilians.
These are two of the points in the request for the arrest:
In October 1953 Sharon was leading the force Unit 101 in to the village of Qibya and blew up 45 houses. 69 people were killed, amongst them women and children.
Through the work of an Israeli investigation lead by Yitzhak Kahan, it has been proved that Sharon was responsible for the 1982 massacres in the refugee camps Sabra and Shatila. A Lebanese force that was allowed access to the camps by Israeli forces that Sharon was controlling, murdered more than 800 people. Ariel Sharon was forced to step down from his position as Minister of Defence as a result of the Israeli report in connection with this incident.
The Geneva Convention Dahle is also pointing out the Geneva Convention that Israel has agreed on.
The convention says «The occupying power is not to deport or transfer parts of their own population to the area of occupation».
RV thinks Israel is doing this by building Jewish homes by the West Bank.
On these grounds, Dahle thinks Sharon should be arrested when entering Norway on 16 July.
When he enters Norwegian ground, he can be arrested and presented to a court. If one finds that a prosecution would have to be delayed until he steps down as Prime Minister, at least his visit to Norway would open up an opportunity for the police to interview him in the interest of a future prosecution», said Dahle.
