Solidarity Rally with the Palestinian people
Saturday, 8 July 2006, at 1 pm
corner of Jean-Talon and Parc avenue (metro Parc)
On the occasion of the second anniversary of the historical opinion
given by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) reiterating that the
Israeli occupation regime is illegal and establishing that the Wall
built by Israel in Palestine is also illegal and must be demolished, the
/Coalition for Justice and Peace in Palestine/ calls a rally of
solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Two year later, the construction of the Wall and the other illegal
actions of Israel continue with total impunity: the military occupation,
the expansion of settlements, the denial of the right of return of
refugees, the bombardments against the civilian population, the
"selective" assassinations, the confiscations of land, the detentions
without trial, and torture. Closures and checkpoints cut cities from
one another and create multiple delays and harassment for the most
ordinary daily activities (going to school, going to work, getting some
food and supplies, visiting family or friends, etc.). An entire people,
humiliated daily.
Recently, the situation got even worse with the refusal of Western
powers to recognize the results of democratic parliamentary elections
that saw the victory of Hamas, and the cutting off of funding to the
Palestinian Authority. The resulting situation is catastrophic for the
Palestinian people : its very right to education, its right to work, and
even its right to food are being targeted and Canada was the first
country to attack in this way the fundamental rights of the Palestinian
people by suddenly cutting off its aid! Moreover, this antidemocratic
and inhumane policy of strangulation, considerably heightens tensions
within the Palestinian population to the point of increasing the risks
of civil war...
At this very moment, under the pretext that some Palestinian resistance
forces are detaining _one_ Israeli soldier -- when Israel arbitrarily
and routinely detains _thousands_ of Palestinians, resistance fighters
and ordinary civilians -- Israel is engaged in yet another devastating
assault on the Gaza Strip, in a new wave of collective punishments
(destruction of bridges and of the only electrical distribution station)
against the Palestinian people, which are all crimes under international
law but which will, again, remain unpunished...
On Saturday, 8 July, we will reaffirm:
=> that Israel must comply with international law; that the Wall must be
demolished, and that the occupation and the colonization must cease
immediately;
=> that the impunity and support which the Israeli State benefits from
must cease;
=> that Canada must immediately restore its aid to the Palestinian
Authority, and that it must denounce the crimes committed by the State
of Israel under international law, and actively support the
implementation of the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people.
Just after the rally, several teams of volunteers will immediately
follow up on these demands with some concrete action by going to various
SAQ stores to protest against the fact that the SAQ sells some wines
produced in the illegal Israeli colonies of the occupied Golan and to
gather signatures on a petition demanding that the SAQ immediately stop
that.
On July 8th 2006, in a particularly difficult and tragic period of its
history, let us openly demonstrate, once again, our active solidarity
with the Palestinian people!
The Wall must fall. The occupation and the colonization must stop.
Canada must demand this. We must see to it that it does !
