Take action on Palestine

Let's close our eyes for a short time and imagine what happened and what's continuing to happen: Someone coming to your house, forcing you, your infants, your aging parents to leave. He prevents you from ever returning to that house. What would you do then?

We are the people of Palestine that long for freedom, justice and peace. We are a people entitled to live in dignity just like any other people exercising our inalienable and sacred right to self-determination.

Yet, Israel has imposed on us an occupation and system of apartheid aimed at preventing the prospects of any peaceful solution.

In order for freedom, justice and peace to prevail, we call upon the peoples of the World to:

First: Reject the Israeli occupation of our homeland Palestine, and the systematic denial of our internationally recognized inalienable rights. We ask you to stand up with our people in their endeavor to achieve justice and independence.

Second: Support the right of our people to have our own independent state and to live in peace, freedom, and dignity. This includes the recognition of the State of Palestine based on the international law and the UN resolutions.

You are all aware of what happened to the Palestinian people. Don’t you think it is time to end our daily suffering? Don’t you think we deserve to live in peace and raise our kids just like anyone of you? Don’t you think that we are all brothers and sisters who share basic values and work very hard to provide our families with what they deserve?

We call on you to stand with us and let your commitment for human rights, which is one of your great values and your support for the oppressed, triumph. Don’t let anyone speak on your behalf and make decisions that conquer and dominate the people who yearn for freedom and justice. We hold tight and cling to the great and noble humanity helping hands.

"Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory." (Franklin D. Roosevelt)

For humanitarian justice and for the right of the Palestinian people to live in dignity like the rest of the nations, please sign this petition.

Reaching five thousand signatures feels like a heavy weight yet it confirms that many of you refuse to look away. This work is draining and often feels impossible but seeing this number provides a sliver of hope to keep going. We are exhausted but we are not stopping now.

The days are long and the opposition is stubborn but we are nearing five thousand signatures. I am exhausted by the silence we face and need your help to push this number over the threshold before the next official briefing. Please keep posting this link to show that this struggle is not going away.

The days feel heavy and the progress often seems invisible while the suffering continues. I am still here at my desk reading your stories and searching for the right way to force them to pay attention to our reality.

For over 70 years, Israel has subjected Palestinians to brutal militarised repression and human rights abuses. During this time, governments around the world, including the UK, have allowed Israel to carry out this oppression with impunity.

n the West Bank, the expansion of Israeli settlements, the continued construction of the apartheid wall, the military closure of the Jordan Valley and the annexation of East Jerusalem are creating an irreversible reality of permanent Occupation.

International laws, values, principles and morals should not stop at the Israeli borders. Hold Israel accountable for its crimes against the Palestinian people and for violating international laws and UN resolutions.

The International community must stand with the Palestinian people. It's not complicated and I see two options; two state based on UN resolutions or one state with equal rights to all it's citizens with the right of return for all Palestinian refugees.

We are more than 12 M Palestinians, trying and working to get our rights back from Israel, the occupational power that occupied our homeland and converted half of the population to refugees by displacing them to neighbor countries.

it is our minimal right as Palestinians to live in freedom and peace and to have minimal human rights in this big prison we are locked in. it's very important for the world to move and change politics and stand against unjust action towards Palestinians FREE PALESTINE
