Israel needs to learn that what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. If it wants Arab nations to recognize its right to exist, then it needs to recognize the right of Palestine to exist as its own independent nation. Or at least start treating the Palestinians as if they were human beings.

									Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has accused Israel of genocide against the Palestinian people, telling a French newspaper that the bombing of Gaza late last year was an unprovoked attack.
</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>"The question is not whether the Israelis want to exterminate the Palestinians. They're doing it openly," Chavez said in an interview with Le Figaro published on Wednesday.
</DIV>
<BR />The Venezuelan president, who has just completed a tour of Middle Eastern and Arab countries, brushed aside Israeli assertions that its attack on Gaza was a response to rocket fire from Islamist group Hamas which rules the coastal enclave.
