Official Statement: We, the Executive Committee of Jews for Justice for Palestinians, utterly condemn the horrific revenge killing of Mohammed Abu Khdeir, a young Palestinian, just as we utterly condemn the murder of the three young Israelis, the murders of nine Palestinians by the Israeli forces in the search for the culprits and the dreadful assault by Israeli soldiers on Abu Khedeir’s cousin. The Occupation of Palestinian Territories by Israel has subjected the Palestinians to gross violence since 1967. Over the last 18 months the army has killed seven Palestinian children and assaulted over 1500 with live ammunition and rubber bullets. Night-time arrests and the severe maltreatment of children as young as twelve continue. Over 27,000 Palestinian homes have been demolished and this programme continues. The expansion of settlements is exponential, and attacks by settlers on Palestinian children on their way to school is routine. The blockade of Gaza is an illegal collective punishment As Israel visits yet another onslaught on Gaza it again kills innocent civilians, creates a dangerous escalation and violates fundamental ethical principles, including Jewish principles. In the strongest terms, we urgently call on all Jews to call on the Israeli Government to stop Operation Protective Edge and to agree a just peace with the Palestinian unity government.” _________________________________________________________ Muslims must know that many Jews do not agree with Israels apartheid policies. They must not conflate Israel with Judaism. Speak against Israels policies, not against Jews please. One of the best persons I know is a Jew friend Jihadi Jew. Of course, there are many others.
