A consortium of European pro-Palestine institutions and activists on Saturday called for the need to stand up for Palestinians’ rights, stop Israeli illegal settlement, prosecute Israeli war criminals, and lift the Gaza siege.
Addressing a large audience at the European al-Wafaa Conference for the Relief of Gaza, held in the Dutch city of Rotterdam, professor of political science at the University of Amsterdam, Ana Tung, urged the pro-Palestine activists and politicians based in the Netherlands to immediately step in so as to make sure Israel’s terrorism against Palestinians would not re-occur in any form.
Having personally been to Gaza a few years ago, Tung said the situation in Palestine needs serious efforts to work out the tragic state of affairs.
Fridz Idlingz, in charge of the Arab-Austrian Relations Committee, raised alarm bells over the countless hindrances lying ahead of the Gaza reconstruction process particularly Israel’s potential infringement of ceasefire accords during the reconstruction or post-reconstruction phases.
Danish activist Tomi Nelson said the very meaning of a peace process can only see the day when Palestinians restore their rights and freedoms and when the notorious Gaza siege and the Israeli illegal settlement expansion are brought to a standstill.
Jewish-French activist Olivia Zemor drew attention to the need to step up pressure on the Israeli occupation via the so-called Boycott-of-Israel campaigns and the crossing out of all cooperation accords with Israel.
Two Danish female participants, speaking on behalf of a pro-Palestine organization based in Denmark, said they received pledges to donate 15 ambulances and called for urgent intervention to ensure the package be dispatched to the Gaza Strip as soon as possible.
