SOLIDAR calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza

SOLIDAR members in Europe and partners in Israel and Palestine call for an immediate end to the violence!

Everyday sees a worsening of the situation: since Israel started, as a reaction to Hamas provocations, bombing the Gaza strip, civilians have been the main victims and their number is steadily increasing. Whoever has been in the Gaza strip knows that a “clean war” is impossible. For too many years, both sides have been calling for peace, making proposals and asking for international support, but no significant and sustainable solution has been found yet. New violence will provoke more violence which will serve as a pretext for further violence. This seems to be a never-ending spiral, a political and humanitarian disaster for the population with only one winner: the extremists. The lesson from history should be that violence is not a solution and there is no military solution for this long-lasting conflict. This military action is not and cannot be justified by any international law.
