STOP ISRAELI
TERROR IN GAZA! FREE PALESTINE! 8/6/22 The United
National Antiwar Coalition stands in solidarity with the people of Palestine
and strongly condemns the most recent violent attacks by Israel on the people
of Gaza. At the time of this writing, 15 Palestinians (including a five-year-old
girl) have been murdered by the latest acts of Israeli aggression, which
targeted residential buildings and communities. We oppose all US funding of
and military support for Israel, without which Israel would be unable to
continue to wage war against Gaza and illegally occupy Palestinian land. For decades,
the people of Palestine have been made to suffer through: constant bombings
and military strikes in Gaza and the West Bank, the mass imprisonment of
their children, the demolition and destruction of their homes by Israeli
settlers and the IDF, and evictions from their historic homes in Jerusalem.
We denounce not only this most recent atrocity by Israel against the people
of Gaza, but Israel’s illegal and immoral occupation Palestine, which has
been ongoing for nearly 75 years now. Those
following the situation in the Middle East can easily see the connection
between the timing of Israel’s aggression in Gaza and the resumption of
nuclear talks between the United States and Iran, the former happening 24
hours after the latter. Israel has long opposed any nuclear deal between the
US and Iran, as it hopes to remain unchallenged in the region by keeping Iran
militarily and economically weak. The Israeli government will continue to use
the tired excuse of, “preempting terrorist threats,” as it always does, to
try and justify its most heinous crimes. It will continue to point fingers
and claim self-defense. We stand in
solidarity with the people of Palestine and support their resistance to
Israeli occupation. We call on
all antiwar, peace, and justice organizations to take to the streets and join
the in global condemnation of Israeli aggression in whatever capacity they
can. We encourage
participation in all local actions in support of the Palestinian people STOP ISRAELI
