IRSCNA Condemn Israeli Attacks on Gaza

On behalf of the Irish Republican Socialist Movement, the Irish
Republican Socialist Committees of North America strongly condemn
Israel's military attacks on Gaza and the deaths of Palestinians.

The latest attacks on Gaza have left dozens, mostly civilians, dead
from Israeli aerial bombardments, and the possibility of Israel
sending in ground troops remains open. In recent days, the Israeli
government has approved plans to call up 110,000 soldiers, which
suggests a larger Israeli military offensive is coming. The
conditions in Gaza have become even worse for those living there, and
will deteriorate even further should Israel send in ground troops.
More Palestinians will be killed. The infrastructure of Gaza will be
further damaged.

Israel continues to portray itself as an innocent victim and claims
to be acting in self-defense. After six decades of occupation and
ethnic cleansing, and decades of turning two small areas of land into
virtual prison camps for Palestinians in their own land, Israel can't
play the victim card when they come under fire by rockets launched
from Gaza by the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades. If anyone can invoke
the right of self-defense, it's the Palestinian people.

We support the legitimate resistance of the Palestinian people to the
terror and occupation of the Zionist military forces. We condemn
Israel for its occupation and for unleashing new terror on
Palestinians, and we condemn the United States government for
allowing its Middle Eastern attack dog to further shed the blood of
Palestinians.

We reiterate our long-standing support for the Palestinian national
liberation struggle in general, and the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine in particular, as well as for a single non-
sectarian state covering all of historic Palestine. We see a
two-state solution as one that is pro-imperialist in that it allows
an illegal occupation to continue on Palestinian land.

End Zionist violence against the Palestinian people! End Zionist
occupation of Palestine!
