Gaza: Humanitarian Situation

Contribution

Bullets, bombs, drones and starvation—the methods by which Netanyahu and his apartheid regime kills Palestinian children, women and men are varied. When I look through history, I have to say that I have no faith that a different Israeli Prime Minister and a different Israeli Government would actually treat Palestinians like human beings. I welcome much of the Minister’s statement, but yet again we have another statement in this place full of sorrow and condemnation—nothing really changes. The time to do something meaningful that will actually stop the genocide and the killing of Palestinians is long overdue. My question is very simple: when will the Government stop all arms sales to Israel?
