Palestinian prisoners held by Israel have experienced brutal beatings, strip searches, threats of sexual assaults, denial of freedom to worship, pray and recite the Qur’an, deprivation of medical care, overcrowding, the reduction of already poor nutrition meals, starvation, the cutting of water and electricity, denial of warm clothes, and the deprivation of visits from family members, legal representatives, and humanitarian groups. Gaza prisoners face all these in addition to continuous torture where other prisoners hear their heart breaking screaming day and night. Some prisoners are missing and it is unknown if they are even still alive.
“While the world focuses on 136 Israelis held in Gaza they ignore 7,000 Palestinians held and abused by Israel. This discrimination is a grave injustice.” The ISM is passing the call of the families to you: “For all the free people, be the light of the prisoners’ darkness and their loud voice in all forums, they are addressing your consciences from the borders and edges of death.”
Prof. David Miller was sacked from his Bristol University post due to the pressure of a local Zionist group during 2019. These fascists played the usual trick of conflating ‘anti-Zionism’ with ‘anti-Semitism! This British Court ruling confirms that every British citizen possesses the ‘right’ in law to hold (or not hold) anti-Zionist viewpoints (which have been a legitimate part of anti-fascist campaigning for decades). I suspect the Interim Ruling of the International Court of Justice – which has indicated Israel is committing ‘Genocide’ in Palestine – has had a certain judicial influence on this verdict!
The officials say they privately expressed concerns about human rights abuses by Israel to leaders of their governments and institutions but have been ignored.
“Our governments’ current policies weaken their moral standing and undermine their ability to stand up for freedom, justice and human rights globally,” the statement says.
“There is a plausible risk that our governments’ policies are contributing to grave violations of international humanitarian law, war crimes and even ethnic cleansing or genocide.”
The signatories called on their governments to “stop asserting to the public that there is a strategic and defensible rationale behind the Israeli operation and that supporting it is in our countries’ interests.”
Meanwhile, the Zionists are treating kidnapped Palestinian men, women and children as sub-human ‘Prisoners’. In the photograph above, ordinary Palestinian captives are illegally blindfolded and shackled hand and foot – whilst they are ‘forced’ to bow in-front of a (fascist) ‘Star of David’ flag and an Arabic inscription which reads – فَأَخَذَهُمُ الطُّوفَانُ وَهُمْ ظَالِمُونَ – or ‘The Floods Will Wash Over Them for Their Sins!’ Just out of view are heavily armed IDF soldiers threatening to shoot-dead any Palestinian captive who refuses to obey. The Arabic text is extracted from the second-half of the 14th Verse of Surat Al-Ankabot (The Spider Surat) contained in the Holy Qur’an.
The Zionist Occupation is exterminating the Palestinian people – supported by the imperialist powers that have violated the land of the Palestinians. The PFLP concluded its statement by stressing that the struggle is long, which requires the prosecution of the leaders of the Occupation – and its partners in America, Britain (and other places) for their heinous crimes! This invitation submitted by South Africa constitutes a step on the path to achieving this goal – although the main battle today is still confronting the Palestinian people. The Zionists are still perpetuating genocide, massacres, injustice, and brutality against the Palestinian people who require the immediate support of all Arab nations, and the free people of the world. This will counter the complicity (and inaction) of the international system, and its blatant bias towards the Zionist Occupation.
