30 MARCH 2009 PRESS PLATFORM PER PALESTINIAN
The March 30, 1976 the Palestinian population starred all kinds of protests, including a general strike against the confiscation of 21,000 donums of agricultural land in the Galilee region in the Jewishness of the territory plan driven by the state of Israel since its creation. The Israeli government imposed a curfew and sent thousands of soldiers and heavy artillery to suppress with great violence to those protesters who were claiming their inalienable right to live in peace in their own land.
international social organizations adhere to the commemoration of Earth Day (Yaum-al-ard) in Palestine as a sign of rejection to one of military occupation, colonial, economic, social cultural and bloodiest of modern times. We call
the Palestinian people's inalienable right, recognized by successive UN resolutions, to live in their own land.
denounce the expropriation of land in all of historic Palestine, complemented by a continued expansion of Israeli settlements, restrictions on freedom of movement of people and their subjection to a system of racial apartheid, especially significant in the occupied territories in 1967, indiscriminate killings, destruction of houses and agricultural land cultivated for centuries and are the way of life for many Palestinian families. We denounce the massive felling of olive trees, seeking to (though unsuccessfully) remove the symbolic Palestinian consciousness.
We extend to the Palestinian people, who suffer daily violence of the brutal Israeli occupation and living in the diaspora for generations to defend their right to return, our commitment to their just cause and our tribute to their resilience. And we want to make special mention of the population in Gaza forced to live for 3 weeks on one of the bloodiest episodes, terrible and cruel committed by the state of Israel in all these years of illegal occupation and despicable with the necessary cooperation from the Egyptian government .
Achieving a just and lasting peace in the Middle East can only be achieved through the implementation of Legality International demands unconditional withdrawal of Israel from Arab territories occupied in 1967 and the creation of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. Also, demand compliance with UN Resolution 194 which recognizes the right of return of 6 million Palestinian refugees make up the release of all political prisoners and compliance with the advisory opinion of the Court Hague declaring the wall built in the West Bank as illegal, calling for its demolition.
remind our governments and therefore the European Union that there will be a just and lasting peace until Israel is obliged to comply current international law, signed by their continued failure. Also, based on the continuing violation of human rights by Israel, we urge the EU to break the EU's preferential trade agreement, Israel, the cessation of all arms and military trade with the Zionist state and the failure to incorporate Israel to European bodies such as the OECD
Finally, we encourage civil society to join the international BDS campaign, carrying out any action to boycott cultural, sporting and economic against the state of Israel while it continues to apply the current policies of apartheid and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian population.
