APK: Condemn Israel's criminal attack on Jenin!

 Condemn Israel's criminal attack on Jenin!  

Solidarity with the struggle of the Palestinian people  

 

APK expresses its full solidarity with the heroic struggles of the Palestinian people. We strongly condemn and abhor apartheid Israel's latest criminal attack against Jenin and the refugee camp [at the north end of the West Bank]. It is a violent military attack and massacre in the long series of Israel's crimes against the Palestinian people with continued ethnic cleansing and subjugation of ever larger areas of land.  

Israel has not been able to eliminate the growing Palestinian resistance to Israel's occupation and theft of Palestinian land. A new combative youth, despite repeated invasions, is taking up the struggle against the occupation. Therefore, on Monday morning the 3rd of July, Israel carried out a new military assault on the Jenin refugee camp, unprecedented in more than 20 years.  

The refugee camp was surrounded with over 100 armored vehicles, so that no one could escape.  Bulldozers [see below] were driven in along with military jeeps and 1000 Israeli soldiers. From the air, airplanes and drones bombed streets and houses. This resulted in the killing of more than 9 Palestinians and the arrest of dozens of others.  

The Israeli government is driven by its need to satisfy the bloodlust of illegal settlers and driven by revenge for Palestinians resisting occupation and land theft, not the least in the Jenin refugee camp.  

In Denmark, we see a Danish government that unconditionally supports apartheid Israel without consequences for the apartheid state's long-standing illegal and criminal actions. On the contrary, the government and parliamentary majority undermine the international movement for a boycott of apartheid Israel in the worst way by purchasing Israeli Elbit military equipment.  

The latest Israeli attack will increase Palestinian anger even more against the Israeli occupation. We and the freedom-loving people of the world will raise their voice in even greater international solidarity with the struggling Palestinian people for their legitimate national rights for a Free Palestine.

There is a long-standing campaign against Caterpillar for selling heavy equipment to the Israeli, such as the massive D9 armored bulldozers the Israeli military uses to demolish Palestinian homes (it was a D9 that killed American International Solidarity Movement activist Rachel Corrie in 2003), and now there is a campaign targeting Hyundai CE, which apparently stopped its involvement in illegal gold mining on indigenous land in the Amazon but has yet to stop abetting Israel's crimes:  actions.eko.org/a/hyundai-ce-separate-your-brand-from-oppression  The Israeli military tore up roads, claiming that there were hidden explosive devices, but this apparently also cut off the refugee camp's water and electricity and made it difficult or impossible for ambulances to enter.  There is such a contrast between the over the top statements broadcast by the media after an alleged intentional or accidental Russian attack that harms western Ukrainian civilians and the value the "West" places on the lives of Palestinians and even the lives of Palestinians with citizenship in a "Western" country (and the lives of eastern Ukrainian civilians and dissenters in Ukraine, neither of which exist, according to the mainstream media).  The US government, through the Trump administration, claimed to be even-handed and working for peace, but the Biden administration doesn't even pretend to have a peace plan and backed Israel's actions.]
