Solidarity with Palestine
For 62 years, Palestine has lived under Israeli occupation, being disposed off their land and denied basic human rights. Millions of Palestinians are living in terrible conditions in refuge camps and thousands have died as a result of the torture and isolation which exists across their lands.
Even though thousands of people across the world have begun to raise their voices against this injustice over the last few years, demanding an immediate end to the occupation, the crimes of the Israeli government continue.
The construction of Israeli colonies continues as well as the absurd recruitment of Jews from all over the world in order to colonise Palestinian territory. However, at the same time, a military decree has been broadcast in order to put in place a new plan of deportation for the Palestinian population and the destruction of trees and houses in the region of Belen continues.
In order to fortify these plans, the state of Israel must silence the Palestinian resistance and voices of solidarity. A recent example was the attack which the flotilla, carrying humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, suffered at the hands of the Israeli state on the 31st May, leaving almost 20 dead, many more wounded and hundreds kidnapped in international waters.
We call for the immediate liberation of all those kidnapped, and the more than 10000 Palestinians inside Israeli prisons.
Stop the occupation
Stop the war crimes of the state of Israel
It is in the hands of the people to stop the occupation of Palestine, for this reason we ask you to act in the following actions:
