Oggetto: Re: [Palsem09] réso Gaza

Hereby its English translation, made by Marijke this morning, to be
discussed at the IC this afternoon:

Resolution from the International Committee on the Israeli offensive
against Gaza
(February 2009)

The recent offensive conducted by the Israeli army against the Gaza
Strip is set in the continuity of the Zionist politics of destruction
of the Palestinian resistance. The dramatic balance sheet of three
weeks of intensive bombing (more than 1300 deaths and more than 5000
wounded) shows the violence of the Israeli army, who used devastating
weapons and are guilty of many war crimes.

The offensive, planned long ahead, was not intended to "stop the
rocket firings" or "impose respect of the cease fire''. The rocket
firings caused fewer than 20 victims in 10 years while the cease fire
signed between Israel and Hamas in June 2008 was never respected by
Israel, who maintained the blockade against Gaza and killed Hamas
militants last November.

Israel's objectives are different. Once more, they want to show the
Palestinian population and the resistance movements that Israel is the
only master of the game: the only "peace" possible will be the one
imposed on the conditions fixed by the Zionist State, which means
denial of the Palestinians' national rights, and anyone who tries to
oppose to this logic will be subjected unlimited repression by the
Israeli army.

Recent events confirm it: the Zionist state will not tolerate
Palestinians unless they renounce their national rights and accept
living in isolated parts of Palestine or in refugee camps outside.
Israel only wants to negotiate with Palestinian representatives if
they are prepared to surrender to "peace" conditions that do not
contradict Zionist objectives and interests.

The imperialist countries, first of all the European Union, have
openly or implicitly supported Israel. The United States, in the
transition period between two administrations, didn't put any pressure
on the Israeli army to stop its offensive. The Arab League States were
divided and unable to adopt a common position whilst Egypt again
played its role as a partner of Israel and of the imperialist powers.

There where nevertheless many reactions condemning Israel and
supporting the Palestinian people. All over the world, demonstrations
rallied tens and even hundreds of thousands of people. Some states,
such as Venezuela and Bolivia, expelled the Israeli ambassador.
Everywhere, even at the General Assembly of the United Nations,
appeals for a boycott and sanctions against Israel were put forward.

The Fourth International reaffirms its unconditional support of the
Palestinian people and the struggle for its rights: the right to
self-determination without any external interference; the right of
return for the refugees or compensation for those who demand it; equal
rights for the Palestinians of 1948. Furthermore, we reaffirm the
necessity of the emancipation of the Arab peoples, of the destruction
of the Zionist state, which represents a racist and colonialist
project at the service of imperialism.

In order to achieve this objective, we must urgently reinforce the
solidarity movement with the Palestinian people, concentrating on four
central and unifying demands on which everyone agrees also within the
Palestinian national movement: unconditional, immediate and total
retreat by the Israeli army from the territories occupied since 1967,
including East Jerusalem; the dismantling of all colonies built since
1967; destruction of the separation wall; liberation of the 11 000
political prisoners held by Israel.

We should also be especially concerned for the demands by the
Palestinians from 1948; they demand full equal rights and as a
consequence ask that Israel should not remain a "Jewish State" but
become a "State of all its citizens". The recent Israeli elections and
the high score obtained by Lieberman, who strongly advocated the
expulsion of the Palestinians from 1948, constitutes a major risk for
this population, to which the solidarity movement has the duty to
respond.

Finally, its seems essential for us to step up the
Boycott-Divestment-Sanction (BDS) campaign, initiated in 2003 by more
than 170 NGOs, associations and Palestinian parties. The demand for
BDS provides the opportunity to develop the solidarity movement with
the aim to denounce the complicity of the governments and the major
capitalist groups. The recent and coming successes of the BDS campaign
can play a part in weakening the Zionist State and create the
conditions to strengthen the Palestinian and anti-imperialist camp.
