CIPOML stands by the Palestinian resistance, we support the Resistance  

October 10, 2023  

The apartheid state of Israel has raised its attacks on the Palestinian people to a new level following the “operation” Al Aqsa Flood against Israel, launched on the morning of October 7 by Hamas and other Palestinian Liberation Organizations.  

The “operation” that involved the firing of rockets from Gaza, several groups of guerrillas entering Israel from different points, capturing a border crossing and a police station, as well as taking some Israeli soldiers and civilians hostage, was responded to by the usual aggression of Israeli Zionism, including mass killings, and the attacks continue.  

Israel, backed by the imperialists, has been constantly attacking the Palestinian people, occupying their land, and denying at gunpoint the Palestinian nation’s right to self-determination.  

The Israeli bourgeoisie and the Zionism it advocates hardly recognize the right to life, let alone equal national rights, for the Palestinians. The racist Israeli government, which is building a reckless lawlessness inside the country, continues its attacks on the Palestinian people without interruption. Israeli artillery and airplanes bombard the Gaza Strip, leaving no stone unturned, without any need for justification. From time to time, it enters Gaza with its tanks and never stops its cruelty.  

In the West Bank, the tyranny against the Palestinian people is limitless. In Jenin, which it attacked in the recent past, it has killed many sons and daughters of the Palestinian people. Zionist Israel, which declared Jerusalem, the holy place where three religions are located, as its capital, did not just ignore the special status of the city, but also targeted Al Aqsa and thus the faith of the Palestinians.  

The Israeli reactionary bourgeoisie has expelled the Palestinian people from their land, shrinking their living space day by day, and has continuously expanded the occupied territories. It constantly opens space for new settlers and increases these settlements to the detriment of the Palestinian people. The number of Palestinians expelled from their country has long exceeded those who continue to live in Palestine. And the latter are struggling to exercise the most basic human rights, the right to life, let alone exercising the right to freely determining their destiny.  

The question “who attacked first?” is meaningless under the conditions of Israel’s continuous aggression and persecution of the Palestinian nation! The main thing is that the resistance of the Palestinian people for their national rights and the resistance against the occupier is justified and legitimate. The aggressor is not the resisting Palestinians, but the unjust Zionist state of Israel.  

Resistance against Israeli apartheid and the aggression against Palestine and the Palestinian people can only be supported. Condemning Israel and its aggression and massacres, CIPOML supports the just resistance of the Palestinian people to the end.  

By condemning Hamas, the US and the European imperialists and their imperialist unions openly supported Israel and its aggression. Supporting aggression against the people, disregarding the principle of equal rights, is the character of the imperialists who themselves attack the peoples. And already in the Middle East, Israel, as an “outpost” of imperialism and relying on the imperialists and getting strength from them and their support, continues its occupation, denial of rights, and attacks against the Palestinian people. Those imperialists have military bases and troops in the region, support their collaborators and fight among themselves for the redivision of the region.  

What seems to be different is the position of the reactionary regional countries, including Turkey and the Arab countries, which call for restraint on all sides. With this position, the reactionary countries of the region, which are in the process of improving their relations with Israel, with the exception of Iran, which has declared that it stands by the Palestinians’ struggle for their rights, are patting the back of Israeli Zionism, which has increased the dose of its aggression since the morning of October 7.  

No! Clarity is essential. Neutrality or a position of “mediation” cannot be developed in the face of Israeli Zionism’s inhumanity. The Palestinian Resistance demanding national political equality of rights and the right to statehood is just and must be supported. Any “solution” that does not recognize the equality of rights of the Palestinians cannot be a solution and cannot put an end to national conflicts.  

The idea that the imperialist confrontation is shifting to regions other than the Middle East and that conflicts in the region are subsiding is wrong. The imperialists and their collaborators are active in the region. In addition to the ongoing Israeli oppression and tyranny, Syria and the renewed Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, and Turkey is bombing the Kurdish habitats in Iraq and Syria. The Kurdish question, along with the Palestinian question, is an ancient problem of the region, and the fights of imperialists and the involvement of their collaborators for the redivision of the region and the lack of a solution to these two problems makes the region a bubbling “witches’ cauldron.”  

Israel must stop all attacks immediately!  

The occupation must end and Israel must withdraw from all occupied territories!  

Israel must stop its policy of opening new settlements!  

Jerusalem’s status as capital must end and the city must be restored to its former status!  

Full equality of national rights for the Palestinian nation – the right to self-determination, including the right to statehood!
