Panaji : Jamaat-e-Islami Hind Goa (JEIHG) on 19 May 2021 has condemned Israel’s aggression against Palestinians. “The massacre of innocent Palestinians and Israel’s expansionist aggression is a disgrace to humanity. We strongly condemn Israel’s aggression and barbaric atrocities against Palestinian civilians. These violent attacks are now being carried out by Israel almost every year. Israel’s intentions regarding the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the entire Jerusalem have not been sincere since the day it occupied the land of Palestine.” said JEIHG
“It wants to occupy a large area of the West Bank and completely annex Al Quds (Jerusalem) as well. It is working towards changing the historical character, geography and demography of Palestine.”
“The current conflict and Palestinian protests in Jerusalem are due to Israel’s
aggressive expansionist policies and actions on the ground. The current unrest
erupted when the Israeli government, in violation of all international laws and
treaties, launched a campaign to forcibly evict the Palestinians living in Sheikh
Jarrah and other neighbourhoods near Al-Aqsa Mosque. Israel is illegally
occupying Palestinian homes and lands, displacing native Palestinian and new
colonies of Israeli settlers are being established here. The Palestinians responded to these aggressive intentions of the Zionist regime and fought back this new series of forcible evictions and atrocities.”
“The main reason for most of the Palestinian protests and intifadas (resistance
movements) are the unprovoked attacks on Gaza by Israel, its daily atrocities
against Palestinian civilians, and its covert and open diplomatic activities in the
Middle East. Israel has been violating many UN resolutions and the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights.”
“The Government of India has always been against the expansionist ambitions of the colonial powers and under this policy, it has always supported the Palestinian liberation movement and the rights of the oppressed Palestinians.”
JEIHG has welcomed the announcement by Mr. TS Tirumurti, India’s Representative to the UN Security Council, that India fully supports the just cause of Palestine. “We rightfully expect and demand that our government, in keeping with this historic declaration, play a key and effective role in ending Israel’s oppression of Palestine.” Concluded JEIHG
