[Public Event][The People for the People] Demonstration for Palestine
Helvetiaplatz, 8004 Zürich, CHThis acts as an announcement to the public event of the Palestine demonstration at Helvetiaplatz hosted by Palestine Committee Zurich.
The Palestinians currently in Gaza are living horrors one can't imagine in their worst nightmare, and it is an ongoing nightmare, the bombarements, the shootings even at aid points, the starvation of the people effecting the weakest first has become so unbearable.
In Gaza if not murdered through bombing or being shot, then what is left of a so-called life happens on the rubble of bombed homes with barely any civil infrastructure left and an outlook of plans by Israel to be pushed away forever from their home place Gaza, while in the meantime Palestinians in the West bank are getting brutally attacked daily by settlers pushing them off their homelands too, settlers that are supported by the Israeli goverment which is in its turn also intensifying the oppression and undignifying treatment of Palestinians in the West bank with ongoing night home raids, detentions of even the youth, infracstructure bulldozering, electricity and water service limitations, and an intenser restriction of movement by closing the many checkpoints effecting Palestinians daily life, weather it is a checkpoint blocking the route to work or back or even for the sick or pregnant woman blocking the route to a hospital.
What is the crime of a Palestinian? That he was born there?
Don't Palestinians deserve to be treated with the same human dignity like the rest of us?
We want to gather our voices to stand for the dignity and rights of Palestinians, the murdered and the living, we call for their rights and freedom of Palestine.
