The Palestine Solidarity Campaign

Jafar Ramini

    The blockade on Gaza is a very harsh form of collective punishment of 1.7 million Palestinians.
    It's illegal, it's cruel and it's inhumane.
    Israel must be taken to the ICC in the Hague for genocide and war crimes against the Palestinian nation.
    Sitting on the fence will not do. Your silence is complicit.
    Say no to Zionism. No to genocide. No to Israel's excesses.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      End Israel's blockade on Gaza
It is time for our Government to play its full part in finally ending the horrific siege on Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip. The United Nations Works and Relief Association (UNWRA) has called for the ‘world community to lift Israel’s blockade on Gaza’.

Below is the wording of the petition which PSC will be taking to 10 Downing Street. We will be calling on the Prime Minister to take urgent action to end the siege of Gaza:

Immediate and permanent lifting of the blockade

We are calling for you to play your full part in permanently lifting, what the UNWRA has called “one of the longest blockades in human history”. Following floods and freezing temperatures, Gaza is a disaster area, and the situation is now catastrophic.

It is unsupportable and immoral for the blockade of Gaza to continue. Please heed UNWRA’s call and demand the immediate lifting of the blockade in order to allow recovery efforts to proceed.

Israel’s blockade on Gaza must be ended immediately and permanently.  >Link to Sign the Petition<
