This is not a religious war, because I know of Israelis we grew up together with and played also together, let alone speaking the same Hebrew and Arabic languages,\u201d he pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>On her part, United Nations Information Centre Dar es Salaam Information Officer, Stella Vuzo, spoke about the obligations of the UN in addressing problems in the countries including the Palestinian question.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn diplomatic recognitions, out of 193 member states of the United Nations, 138 (71.5 per cent) have recognised the State of Palestine as of 31 July 2019, and the United Nation&#8217;s recommendations were to make Palestine into both an Arab and Jewish state. They voted to give regions of the state to each religion by their religious population,\u201d she pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>Hosting the forum, the Institute of Social Work Acting Deputy Rector-Planning Finance and Administration, Dr Zena Mabeyo, asked the students to read a lot including current affairs, adding that that would widen their scope of understanding and analyzing developments in the world.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, said to be Tanzania-Palestine Solidarity Committee, Abdallah Othman gave the history of Tanzanian and Palestine friendship that also culminated in the latter sending a team of doctors to Dar es Salaam settling at Sinza and starting the Palestine area in the city.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe friendship was so cemented to an extent that in the course of Iddi Amin starting war with us, he found himself going solo. Amin had crisscrossed the world saying Mwalimu Julius Nyerere (being a Christian) was attacking him because he was a Muslim and his country; something he knew was a propaganda, lies and cheap politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was Yasser Arafat, Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization from 1969 to 2004 and President of the Palestinian National Authority from 1994 to 2004, who told the world the reality that Amin was a liar, who deserved punishment for dragging Muslims into the baseless war he started out of his greed to annex part of Tanzania.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring his (Arafat) lifetime he spent time attending all Africa Union meetings to bring peace in the continent, because he felt part and parcel of Africa, something Mwl Nyerere fought for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
