Boycott US Israel Statement

MAHATMA GHANDI
"Palestine
belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the
English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the
Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be
justified by any code of conduct. The Mandates have no sanction but
that of the last War. Surely it would be a crime against humanity to
reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews
partly or wholly as their national home. I am not defending the Arab
excesses. I wish they had chosen the way of non-violence in resisting
what they rightly regarded as an unwarranted encroachment upon their
country. But according to the accepted canons of right and wrong,
nothing can be said against the Arab resistance in the face of
overwhelming odds."

certain that these generations to come will have lessons to learn from
the extraordinary life of Mohandas Gandhi"

Perhaps one of the most appropriate for remembering this great soul of
Ghandi, is the tribute from one of Israel's most intelligent sons,
Albert Einstein; "Generations to come will scarce believe that such a
one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood." It is however
certain that these generations to come will have lessons to learn from
the extraordinary life of Mohandas Gandhi"
Palestine for the sake of peace and the children of the middle-east,
will need to make a sacrifice and go a step further than what Mahatma
Gandhi suggested and recognize the state of Israel. Israel needs to
start a GENUINE dialogue and stop the blame game and delaying game of
pre-conditions. The solution itself is really simple., every child on
the street knows that a return to the '67 borders is the solution.
In Ireland we understand what the word (Shoah) Holocaust, (The Great
Hunger) means. Believe me, we understand, its in our blood and our
genes. Between 1845 - 1847 our population, was reduced from 9 million
to 3 million by ethnic cleansing, by systematic, calculated,
heartless, engineered famine. The revisionist historians have tried to
re-write our history but this is fact. Our country too, lost 6 million
people. It is so difficult, to forgive this but we must forgive and
move on, for the future and for our children's sake.
The publication
 http://www.engageonline.org.uk/ressources/funny/index.html explains
this committee's compassion for the Jewish dilemma in this matter but
the Palestinian and Arab positions must be respected too.
As an Irish people overseas, who are outraged by the systematic ethnic
cleansing, being carried out currently in Gaza Concentration Camp, we
have found the above, a most informative source, thus far, in trying
to understand Israel and these war crimes. Our only reservation, is
the author's analysis of Leon Trotsky.
At this point, the only further obsevation we would make, is that we
are in danger of allowing cerebral masturbation, to become a
substitute for genuine human compassion and action, for the victims of
the victims of genocidal war crimes. Currently monstrous war crimes
are being committed by the US and Israel.
We believe our first action, must be a well organized, International
Boycott of all countries currently guilty of war crimes. A simple
majority of nations voting at the UN, should decide this matter
immediately. In the meantime, we are currently boycotting all American
and Israeli goods, music labels, film corporations, media
corporations, sport franchises, airlines, banking and services. There
are alternatives, we urge all intelligent people of goodwill, to be
ethical shoppers worldwide, including compassionate Americans and Jews
to do the same.
We need help with organizing this in Ireland, in an effective peaceful
international way. We also need to find effective united ways, to deal
with the considerable dis-information in the media, from very powerful
agencies. This campaign to be effective and not fall foul, to black
propaganda, must dis-associate itself entirely, from all violence,
justified or not, to be effective.
The propaganda and lies will come, so please, keep it peaceful, keep
it simple and stay
united.
To stay United, again, we must keep it simple, division and those who
promote it,
is a friend of the enemy.
United we stand, Divided we fall.
BOYCOTT THE USA AND ISRAEL NOW !
Anyone who would like to build this movement in Ireland organize and
spread the word, please contact.
