Petición de 300 académicos británicos de boicot, desinversión y sanciones a Israel

Indignación creciente ante a la matanza en Gaza

Fuentes: The Guardian

Traducido del inglés para Rebelión por Beatriz Morales Bastos

Las masacres en Gaza son la última fase de una guerra que Israel he estado manteniendo contra el pueblo palestino durante más de 60 años. El objetivo de esta guerra siempre ha sido el mismo: utilizar un abrumador poder militar para erradicar a los palestinos como fuerza política, capaz de resistir a la continua apropiación de su tierra y de sus recursos. La guerra de Israel contra los palestinos ha convertido Gaza y Cisjordania en dos gigantescas cárceles políticas. En esta guerra no hay simetría alguna en términos de principios, tácticas o consecuencias. Israel es responsable de emprenderla y de intensificarla, y de poner fin al más reciente periodo de hostilidades.

Israel tienen que perder. No basta con pedir otro alto el fuego o más ayuda humanitaria. No basta con urgir a que se reanude el diálogo y a que se reconozcan las preocupaciones y sufrimientos de ambas partes. Si creemos en el principio de autodeterminación democrática, si ratificamos el derecho a resistir a una agresión militar y a una ocupación colonial, entonces estamos obligados a tomar partido … contra Israel y con el pueblo de Gaza y Cisjordania.

Tenemos que hacer cuanto podamos para impedir a Israel ganar esta guerra. Israel tiene que aceptar que su seguridad depende de la justicia y de la coexistencia pacífica con sus vecinos y no del criminal uso de la fuerza.

Creemos que Israel debería parar inmediata e incondicionalmente su agresión a Gaza y la ocupación de Cisjordania, y renunciar a todo derecho a poseer o controlar territorio más allá de sus fronteras de 1967. Hacemos un llamamiento al gobierno británico y al pueblo británico a que den todos los pasos que sean factibles para obligar a Israel a cumplir estas exigencias, empezando por un programa de boicot, desinversión y sanciones [a Israel].
