While the truce agreement signed on January 19 between the Palestinian
resistance and the Israeli government had already been violated numeroustimes by the latter from the very first days, the massive bombing of the
Gaza Strip on March 18 has completely shattered it, and hundreds of
Palestinian deaths have already been reported. Once again, what remains
of the hospital system is under systematic attack, and journalists are
also prime targets in an effort to silence the ongoing massacres (more
than 200 journalists have been killed since October 2023). Since March
2, Israel has once again blocked all humanitarian aid into Gaza: water,
fuel, food, etc. The resumption of mass bombings in an already destroyed
Gaza Strip signals the entry of a new genocidal phase for the Israeli state.
This unleashing of violence is motivated, among other things, by the
Netanyahu government's desire to divert attention at a time when it is
increasingly under attack, particularly following the dismissal of the
head of domestic intelligence and the no-confidence proceedings against
the public prosecutor, not to mention his corruption scandals. While we
will not mourn their fate, his desire to remove obstacles to his power
in order to further consolidate it has rekindled internal tensions in
Israel, and numerous demonstrations have erupted, even though none of
them challenge Zionist logic. Netanyahu hopes that by resuming the
bombing, he will be able to restore the sacred union, by attracting,
among others, the most radical far-right parties.
The Israeli government, firmly determined to implement the Zionist
project of destroying Palestine, is going as far as it can. As long as
it receives full support from Western imperialism, it will not stop on
its own. The United States bears an overwhelming responsibility for the
destruction of Gaza. American imperialism's hands are drenched in blood,
both through its economic, political, and diplomatic support for Israel,
and through its direct military support through the bombing of Yemen and
the supply of weapons. While France plays a less important role on the
global stage, it is no exception when it comes to complicity. The
villainous visit of a French delegation to Israel, including the cream
of the far right like Marion Maréchal-Le Pen, has reconfirmed this.
Imperialist support ensures the Zionist state not only complete
impunity, but also the achievement of its political objectives: thus,
Trump's plan to deport Palestinians from Gaza is a godsend for Israel,
which will attempt to implement its plan to destroy the Palestinian
people and completely expel them from their own land. The Palestinian
people's resistance to colonialist expulsions and ethnic cleansing,
manifested after the truce by the mass return of Palestinians from
northern Gaza to their lands, is a first obstacle to the criminal plans
of Trump and Netanyahu. But in the face of this emergency, international
solidarity is essential. We, who live in a state complicit in genocide,
have a key role to play in stopping the cogs of Israel's death machine.
The growth and strengthening of a massive movement of solidarity with
Palestine must be a priority for all those who refuse to resign
themselves to witnessing genocide before their eyes. We must exert
significant pressure on the political and economic complicity enjoyed by
Israel. We call for strengthening the Stop Arming Israel campaign, an
essential key to solidarity with Palestine, and for using all the levers
at our disposal to fight against the arming and economic support of
genocidaires: union action, boycotts, and the fight in universities and
schools against partnerships with arms companies.
