KOZHIKODE: Congress MP Rajmohan Unnithan kicked up a controversy with his remark that Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu should be shot dead without a trial."It is high time that Netanyahu, who violated the Geneva Convention, was shot and killed without a trial because that is the level of mass killing being done there (Gaza).

The one who takes arms to save one's country, one's own life, one's siblings, is not an extremist.If someone portrays Hamas as extremists, then it is time to respond against them strongly," said the Congress MP.He said that after World War II, those who were charged with war crimes faced Nuremberg model trials, that is, they were shot dead without any trial.

"The time has come to conduct a Nuremberg model trial, because Netanyahu is standing before the world as a war criminal," he said.

Unnithan was speaking at a Palestine solidarity rally organized by the Kasaragod United Muslim Jamaath on Friday.

During his speech, Unnithan also hit out at the US and England and said that the US killed 10 lakh Arabs/Muslims in Iraq.

In Afghanistan, the US killed 7 lakh Muslims.

In Korea and Vietnam, too America killed innocents, he said.

"The US's greed for war has still not ended.

That is what we are seeing in Palestine," he said.

Outraged by "MP Rajmohan Unnithan's reckless and inflammatory speech at the Palestine Rally.

His call for the murder of Israeli PM Netanyahu is deplorable, echoing terrorist propaganda.

This isn't political discourse; it's a dangerous incitement akin to jihadist extremism.

We demand immediate legal action against such radical rhetoric.

This isn't about politics; it's about preventing the spread of terrorist ideology," K Surendran said in a tweet.
