Statement on Israeli Murder of Gaza – January 11 2009

We the members of the reorganized Socialist Party of Jackson County,
Oregon, show our solidarity with, and support of, the people of Gaza and ask for the solidarity and endorsement of the people of our county, state and nation. As well we express outrage and horror at the killing machine that has been unleashed on the people of Gaza, killing children, women and men. Israel can say what they please about “only terrorist targets” being hit, but the fact is civilians are being hit continuously and it must Stop Now! Of course we understand there are complexities with the region and know that no one statement, protest or dead child, whether it be Gazan or Israeli, will bring peace any time soon.

Whereas this latest military invasion of Gaza is public and is creating
an international outcry for an immediate halt. We feel strongly and not
alone when we demand the following.

• An immediate end to the violence being delivered upon the people of Gaza.

• For humanitarian aid to be let in immediately and for U.N. as well
as independent observers and members of the media be let in to monitor the efforts.

• We call for a war crimes investigation to be opened and the Israeli army’s total disregard for Gazan dead and injured be brought before international law.

• We call for the USA to stop funding Israel’s war machine and to
stop selling, or in any way supplying, military equipment to Israel or
any other country in the region.

It is time we not only demand these things but it is time that Israel
know the world does not agree, the people of this county do not agree, the people of our state and nation do not agree. Let Israel know they will one day stand alone if their policies do not change now!

    Eric,

    Give us the third-party angle, and we would cover it. But I see none.

    Hummm, I thought most Jews were pro-communists.
    The world is learning Israel’s gov’t has no problem killing babies. Like totalitarian communists and fascists have done for centuries !
    Most pro-warriors are closet-FASCIST.

    Give peace a chance,
    make love not war,
    etc., etc….

    The NeoNazis in Calgary, Canada joined in with Radical Muslims and Communists in an Anti-Israel demonstration over the weekend. The Radical Muslims welcomed them with open arms. They all joined hands and chanted Death to the Jews.

    Wonder if IPR will cover this?

    And the Anti-War Libertarians said there was “no such thing as Islamo-Fascism.”
