Die-In and March for Palestine: Saturday 2nd November noticed one other big march in London in assist of the Palestinian individuals calling for pressing motion by the by the worldwide group to finish brutal assaults on civilians, hospitals and faculties in Gaza and an finish the deliberate hunger of Palestinians.
On the 14th November the UN Particular Committee to research Israeli practices launched a new report stating what has been clear to many of the remainder of the world for a lot of months.
Inspecting what had occurred from October 2023 to July 2024 in Gaza, the occupied Palestinian territory and the occupied Syrian Golan they state: “For the reason that starting of the conflict, Israeli officers have publicly supported insurance policies that strip Palestinians of the very requirements required to maintain life — meals, water, and gas, These statements together with the systematic and illegal interference of humanitarian support clarify Israel’s intent to instrumentalise life-saving provides for political and army beneficial properties.”
“By way of its siege over Gaza, obstruction of humanitarian support, alongside focused assaults and killing of civilians and support staff, regardless of repeated UN appeals, binding orders from the Worldwide Court docket of Justice and resolutions of the Safety Council, Israel is deliberately inflicting loss of life, hunger and critical damage, utilizing hunger as a technique of conflict and inflicting collective punishment on the Palestinian inhabitants.”
You possibly can learn extra concerning the report on the UN web page. It’s to be offered to the 79th Session of the UN Basic Meeting at the moment – 18 November 2024, calling on “all Member States to uphold their authorized obligations to stop and cease Israel’s violations of worldwide legislation and maintain it accountable.”
Probably there can be a number of nations together with the USA and Britain who will uphold the liberty of the state of Israel to proceed its genocide and carry on supplying the weapons that allow them to take action.
I used to be intending to put in writing one thing extra about what is occurring in Gaza, Lebanon and elsewhere – and concerning the pressing want for a ceasefire, the discharge of hostages and the beginning of long term negotiations to convey a couple of simply and everlasting answer which might allow each Palestinians and Israelis to reside in peace.
However it could largely be repeating issues I’ve written many instances earlier than and I’ve determined to depart it to the UN committee and some of the numerous footage I took on the march to inform the story.
As traditional there was a Jewish block on the protest in addition to many Jewish indivuals elsewhere within the march, together with the small group of anti-Zionist Jews who’ve at all times supported freedom for Palestine. There was additionally a small protest towards the march on the north finish of Vauxhall Bridge which curiously included these calling for he launch of hostages – which a ceasefire and negotiations has the strongest probability of acheiving.
