Lettre d’Ariel Sharon au Secr\u00e9taire d’Etat Albright<\/strong><\/p>\n Cher Secr\u00e9taire Albright:<\/p>\n Je regrette vivement, et trouve totalement inacceptable que votre porte-parole ait \u00e9t\u00e9 si prompt pour faire un rapport faux sur ma visite au Mont du Temple jugeant qu’elle \u00ab\u00a0a pu causer la tension\u00a0\u00bb, insinuant qu’elle a mis \u00e0 feu les \u00e9meutes et les perturbations \u00e0 J\u00e9rusalem qui se sont \u00e9tendues en Jud\u00e9e, en Samarie, \u00e0 Gaza et plus tard, en Israel lui-m\u00eame.<\/p>\n Je trouve plus regrettable et d\u00e9rangeant que votre porte-parole a \u00e9t\u00e9 influenc\u00e9 par la propagande calomnieuse de la part des leaders et des medias palestiniens, destin\u00e9s \u00e0 faire pression sur Israel et les USA pour faire des concessions suppl\u00e9mentaires dans les n\u00e9gociations, sous la menace de la violence si leurs demandes ne sont pas satisfaites.<\/p>\n J’ai exprim\u00e9 mes inqui\u00e9tudes et regrette la violence r\u00e9pandue et la perte insens\u00e9e des vies et des dommages des deux c\u00f4t\u00e9s. Mais il doit clairement \u00eatre compris que ce n’\u00e9tait pas ma visite au Mont du Temple, le site le plus Saint pour les Juifs et sous la pleine souverainet\u00e9 isra\u00e9lienne, qui a mis le feu aux poudres de la manifestation actuelle de violence.<\/p>\n Le D\u00e9partement de la S\u00e9curit\u00e9 d’Israel a publiquement pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 ses conclusions que les \u00e9meutes violentes et les confrontations arm\u00e9es, font partie d’une campagne pr\u00e9m\u00e9dit\u00e9e et organis\u00e9e par l’Autorit\u00e9 Palestinienne (A.P.). Cette campagne a commenc\u00e9 il y a plus de dix jours dans la r\u00e9gion de Netzarim \u00e0 Gaza, commen\u00e7ant par des lapidations et escaladant rapidement \u00e0 l’utilisation d’armes \u00e0 feu et d’explosifs contre les soldats isra\u00e9liens et les civils voyageant l\u00e0.<\/p>\n Ces \u00e9meutes se sont \u00e9tendu par l’incitation d\u00e9lib\u00e9r\u00e9 (avant la visite) par le \u00a0\u00bb Tanzim \u00a0\u00bb (la milice arm\u00e9e de l’organisation d’Arafat, le Fatah). Le vendredi pass\u00e9 Arafat a demand\u00e9 au \u00a0\u00bbTanzim’ d’amplifier les \u00e9meutes. D’ailleurs, des chefs palestiniens de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 directement impliqu\u00e9s en incitant la violence de la police palestinienne pour ouvrir le feu sur les soldats, la police et les civils isra\u00e9liens.<\/p>\n Les membres arabes de la Knesset (MKs) ont contribu\u00e9 et ont rejoint cette campagne violente par l’incitation r\u00e9p\u00e9t\u00e9e, appelant les Isra\u00e9liens arabes, tout comme les Palestiniens, \u00e0 recourir \u00e0 la violence avant, pendant et apr\u00e8s ma visite au Mont du Temple.<\/p>\n Ce n’est pas la premi\u00e8re fois que je visite le Mont du Temple. Le G\u00e9n\u00e9ral Inspecteur de la Police a expliqu\u00e9 que les grandes forces de police d\u00e9ploy\u00e9es pour sauvegarder la visite, l’avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 avant ma visite, suite \u00e0 des menaces palestiniennes de recourir \u00e0 la violence \u00e0 grande \u00e9chelle afin de prendre la commande de la r\u00e9gion occidentale du Mur Occidental au-dessous du Mont du Temple.<\/p>\n Je souhaite souligner, Mme Secretary, que le Premier ministre Barak a d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9nonc\u00e9 tr\u00e8s clairement que chaque citoyen isra\u00e9lien, que ce soit l’Arabe ou le juif, a le droit de visiter n’importe quel endroit qui est sous la souverainet\u00e9 isra\u00e9lienne.<\/p>\n La ville unifi\u00e9e de J\u00e9rusalem, avec laquelle vous \u00eates tous tr\u00e8s familier, ainsi que le Mont du Temple, sont sous la pleine souverainet\u00e9 isra\u00e9lienne. Ni moi, ni tout autre citoyen isra\u00e9lien n’a besoin de rechercher la permission de la A.P. ou de toute autre entit\u00e9 \u00e9trang\u00e8re pour visiter ce site ou n’importe lequel autre qui soit sur le territoire souverain de l’Etat d’Israel.<\/p>\n Quant \u00e0 moi, je souhaite vous assurer en d\u00e9pit des \u00e9v\u00e9nements violents r\u00e9cents que je reste enti\u00e8rement commis \u00e0 r\u00e9aliser la Paix avec tous nos voisins arabes comprenant les Palestiniens.<\/p>\n Je crois que nous pouvons atteindre la Paix, mais ce doit \u00eatre une paix durable et vraie bas\u00e9e en premier lieu sur la r\u00e9version compl\u00e8te de la violence. En outre, cela exige l’identification et l’acceptation palestinienne des droits inh\u00e9rents historiques que les juifs ont sur leur Terre et sur leur Capitale J\u00e9rusalem, et en particulier les droits souverains de libre acc\u00e8s \u00e0 notre site le plus sacr\u00e9: le Mont du Temple. Ce droit est accord\u00e9 et garanti \u00e0 chaque citoyen isra\u00e9lien aussi bien qu’aux touristes, ind\u00e9pendamment de leur race, de leur religion ou de leur croyance, et ce depuis qu’Israel a r\u00e9unifi\u00e9 la ville en 1967.<\/p>\n Bien \u00e0 vous,<\/p>\n Ariel Sharon, Arik Sharon Letter to Secretary of State Albright<\/p>\n October 5, 2000<\/p>\n Her Excellency Mrs. Madelaine Albright Dear Secretary Albright:<\/p>\n I deeply regret, and I find it totally unacceptable that your spokesman was quick to make a false statement that my visit to The Temple Mount \u00ab\u00a0may have caused tension,\u00a0\u00bb insinuating that it ignited the riots and disturbances in Jerusalem that spread to Judea, Samaria and Gaza and later, to Israel itself.<\/p>\n I find it most regrettable and disturbing that your spokesman has been swayed by slanderous propaganda on the part of the Palestinian leaders and media, intended to put pressure on Israel and the US to make additional concessions in the negotiations, under threat of violence if their demands are not met.<\/p>\n I have expressed my concern and regret at the widespread violence and the senseless loss of lives and injuries on both sides. But it must be clearly understood that it wasn’t my visit to The Temple Mount the holiest site for Jews and under full Israeli sovereignty – that ignited the current outbreak of violence.<\/p>\n Israel’s Security Establishment has publicly presented its conclusions that the violent riots and armed confrontations, are part of a premeditated and organized campaign initiated by the Palestinian Authority (P.A.). This campaign began over ten days ago in the Netzarim area in Gaza, starting with stone throwing and escalating to the use of firearms and explosives against Israeli soldiers and civilians traveling there.<\/p>\n These riots have spread out through the deliberate incitement (prior to the visit) by the \u00ab\u00a0Tanzim\u00a0\u00bb (the armed militia of Chairman Arafat’s Fatah organization). Last Friday Arafat This is not the first time I’m visiting The Temple Mount. The Inspector General of the Police has explained that the large Forces which the Police deployed to safeguard the visit, were required due to Palestinian threats prior to the visit to resort to large scale violence in order to take control of the Western Wall area below The Temple Mount.<\/p>\n I wish to emphasize, Mrs. Secretary, that Prime Minister Barak has already stated very clearly that every Israeli citizen, be it Arab or Jew, has a right to visit any place which is under Israeli sovereignty.<\/p>\n The united city of Jerusalem, which you are all very familiar with, as well as The Temple Mount, are under full Israeli sovereignty. Neither I, nor any Israeli citizen need to seek As for myself, I wish to assure you that despite the recent violent events I remain fully committed to achieving peace with all our Arab neighbors including the Palestinians. <\/strong><\/p>\n I believe we can reach peace, but it must be durable and real peace based first and foremost on complete negation of violence. Furthermore, it requires Arab Palestinian recognition Sincerely Yours, Lettre d’Ariel Sharon au Secr\u00e9taire d’Etat Albright Octobre 5, 2000 Son Excellence Mme Madeleine Albright Secr\u00e9taire d’Etat, Washington DC Cher Secr\u00e9taire Albright: Je regrette vivement, et trouve totalement inacceptable que votre porte-parole ait \u00e9t\u00e9 si prompt pour faire un rapport faux sur ma visite au Mont du Temple jugeant qu’elle \u00ab\u00a0a pu causer la tension\u00a0\u00bb,… <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1880,"featured_media":56941,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43593","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-divers","category-israel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43593","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1880"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43593"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43593\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51200,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43593\/revisions\/51200"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56941"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43593"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43593"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/harissa.com\/news-wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43593"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

instructed the ‘Tanzim’ to escalate the riots. Moreover, Palestinian Security Chiefs have been directly involved in inciting the violence and in ordering Palestinian Police to open fire on Israeli soldiers, Police and civilians.
Arab Members of the Knesset (MKs) have contributed to and joined this violent campaign by repeated incitement calling Arab Israelis as well as Palestinians to resort to violence prior,
during and after my visit to The Temple Mount.<\/p>\n
permission from the PA or from any foreign entity to visit there or any other site which is sovereign territory of the State of Israel.<\/p>\n
