Stop the Genocide - Freedom for the Palestinian People
Published Janurary 2009
Israel’s bloody assault on the people of Gaza has to stop. The British government must demand immediate, unconditional withdrawal of Israeli armed forces.
For 40 years, Israel has defied UN resolutions calling for its withdrawal to pre-1967 borders, the right of return for refugees and the creation of a separate Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem.
For the past 20 years, US governments have funded the Israeli war machine with £60 million a week (US Congressional Research Service, January 2008). Without this massive subsidy, the war could not continue for a day.
In Israel itself, 450 people have been arrested during mass protests against Israeli aggression. The Israeli Communist Party, which unites Arabs and Jews, has demanded immediate and unconditional Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, as have the Palestinian and Arab Communist and left parties.
