A PFB spokesperson spoke at the protest asserting that, if the occupation continues and our government continues to support it, generations will know nothing but anger, they will know nothing but war.

He added that the Palestinian flag is a symbol for hope, liberation and peace.

Palestinian ambassador to the UK Husam Zmolot also spoke at the event and called on people to stand up for Palestine and to speak out in this dark time.

He expressed his disappointment with politicians around the world for taking the easy path not the right path. Zmolot also expressed his concern saying what happened to justice, what happened to the law, what happened to humanity, where is the international law.

The Palestinian struggle he affirmed is a people’s struggle for dignity and survival, not to be killed. Ben Jamal, the director of the PSC, thanked the attendees for their solidarity with Palestine and called for another protest next week.

He called for an end to the violence and likewise attacks on civilians should be condemned, no matter who commits them.

Zaher Birawi, head of the Palestinian Forum in Britain said that this huge number of demonstrators in London sends a strong message against the crimes of the occupation in Gaza and against the policy and positions of the British government and all British politicians and parties that are competing to justify these crimes that violate international law.

A press statement from the organizers demanded the British government to end all forms of support for Israel.

They also called on the international community, including the United Nations, to conduct a thorough and impartial investigation into the atrocities in Gaza. Those responsible must be held accountable under international law.

Ben Jamal said we know that violence will not end until you deal with its root causes and the root causes of the violence we are currently seeing is the decades-long Israeli war on the people of Palestine through a system of occupation, colonization and Apartheid.

These animals can no longer live says Israel’s oldest reservist, 95-year-old Israeli army reservist Ezra Yachin was filmed calling on Israeli troops to kill families and children along with Hamas fighters in Gaza.

He was a Lehi terrorist. He should be charged with war crimes for his part in the Nakba.

95 years old and full of hate and blood-lust!
He must’ve been born with that feeling.

Protests are now raging across the globe. The support for Palestine cannot be questioned. Even in the face of mass media propaganda. The good people of the world are taking a stand against the oppressors. Making it very clearly heard the world DOES NOT stand with Israel.
I saw they delayed the ground invasion due to heavy rains. Heavy rains always come before a flood.
The flood is coming.

Mark– Israel has been massacring Palestinians for decades –why don’t you look up real honest-true statistics of the number of Palestinians killed over 40 years alone ?
