Israeli terrorism manifest in this picture of young children falling pray to their false war against Hamas
Citizens of Malaysia and the World,
For the past 2 weeks now, terror has descended upon Gaza, a region in Palestine. After having suffered months of crippling Israeli blockade, the region has now been subject to daily airstrikes, shelling, and ground incursions all supposedly aimed at Hamas, the democratically elected Government of Palestine, for launching rockets into the territory of Israel but reality speaks to those who hear the truth otherwise.
So far nearly 800 Palestinians have died, a QUARTER of them children (such as in the picture above), and nearly 60 of them women, all civilians who have naught to do with the problems Israel has with Hamas. On top of this, continuous incursions by Israel have seen thousands of civilians injured, with the Gaza territory suffering from no electricity, lack of water, food and medicinal supplies. Not content with the hellish conditions the murderous Israeli blockade has created for the Gazans, they have also sought fit to fire upon medical aid workers doing their jobs to save what little lives remain from the rubble and chaos committed.
All these acts and more surely deserve utmost condemnation from those who call themselves civilized, even human. Yet America, the worlds most powerful nation, refuses to so condemn, and yet even condones Israel in perpetrating its merciless war crimes against the Palestinian nation. Although a UN Security Council resolution has recently been approved, the USA saw fit to dribble down its wording in favour of Israel alone, without any firm commitment to reopen the blockades that have been responsible for this in the first place, nor recognizing the need to treat Hamas as a legitimate, democratic representative of the Palestinian people. Scared Governments around the world including the useless Arab Govts have capitulated before American pressure in this.
As a human and a citizen, I do therefore, invite Malaysia and the world to show our anger at these and more by;
1. Boycotting American goods and services. This boycott must go on until such time America recognizes Hamas and Palestine’s right to exist as an independent, sovereign state, with freedom and dignity for its people, and pressures Israel to do the same. Keep in mind that even though it might not be possible to boycott ALL American products, boycott at least some of them, especially those you can do without. For example, instead of drinking Coca Cola, drink Zam Zam Cola instead.
2. Sign this petition created by MCA (a Malaysian political party) Youth at www.petitiononline.com/no2war09 condemning the Israeli terror attacks on Gaza.
3. Do anything within your power and ambit to put thru the message that the world will not tolerate terrorism committed upon Gaza civilians. This may include dumping American company shares, refusing business with American and Israeli corporations and so on; and
4. Pray that one day Israel will be held to account for its current, past and future war crimes such as these.
If our Governments can’t do what it, it would thus be up to us, the People. Arise and do your part for humanity.
