The governments of the US, UK, Germany and most of Europe are wholly complicit in the horrific assault on the people of Gaza.

Not only are these governments refusing to meet their treaty obligations to ensure respect for the Geneva Convention but they are in fact actively arming the assault by providing economic and intelligence support, and giving political and diplomatic cover for Israel’s war crimes.

Palestinians in Gaza are being demonized, suffering ethnic cleansing, and collective punishment. This is a classic case of genocide and the Israeli government must be held accountable.
