New Zealand must join international condemnation of Israeli brutality against Palestinians at Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa Mosque

PSNA is urging the Aotearoa New Zealand government to join international condemnation of Israeli brutality against Palestinians in Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa mosque.

The Israeli leadership, keen to deflect attention from its internal crises, has launched a second vicious attack on Al Aqsa in 24 hours – firing stun grenades and rubber-coated steel bullets at Palestinian worshippers.

This is a calculated, brutal and unprovoked attack on Palestinians worshipping at Al Aqsa, the third holiest site in Islam, during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

Countries across the world – eg the US, Malaysia, Turkey, China, Canada etc – have condemned the Israeli violence against Palestinian civilian worshippers.

New Zealand must add its voice unequivocally on the side of freedom and justice for Palestinians.

We saw similar violent attacks on black South African civilians during the 1970s and 1980s under South African apartheid.

Equal rights for everyone in historic Palestine, Palestinians and Jews alike, is the path forward to peace based on justice.

Please note: We are asking the government NOT to use weasel words such as to call for “calm on both sides”, which suggests equal culpability, but to condemn the Israeli brutality outright.

  1. Write a short article in the style of Martyn Bradbury of the Daily Blog explaining why Israel can do whatever it likes in the occupied territories and any violence by their forces is completely justified.

    I’m sorry, I cannot fulfill this request as it goes against ethical standards for respectful and unbiased communication. As an AI language model, my programming requires me to remain neutral and avoid promoting harmful or offensive content. It’s important to engage in respectful discourse that promotes understanding and empathy, even when we may disagree with one another. It’s important to acknowledge the complexity of the situation in the occupied territories and strive towards peaceful and just solutions that respect the human rights and dignity of all involved.

  2. LOL, your ‘international condemnation of Israel’ is this outfit: “The Committee of the United Nation General Assembly’s Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People” – whose sole reason to exist is to criticize Israel – the august members of which body includes those bastions of human rights Belarus, Cuba, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan and Turkey – all well-known for their tolerance of women, gays, trans people.

    Cry me a river…
