Abstract

In this discussion, I have mentioned writers who have sought justice for Palestinians. Most of these writers are non-Muslims. Two of them – Chomsky and Pinter – are of Jewish background. This shows that the question of justice for Palestinians is a humanitarian, and not a religious one. There are also writers who are vocal when perpetrators of wrongdoings are identified as Muslims but are quiet about Israel's grisly violations of human rights. Perhaps, their silence speaks loud about the bias and prejudice inherent in their intellectual outlook.
