Palestinian Civil Society Calls for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel Until it Complies with International Law and Universal Principles of Human Rights July 9, 2005

  • In light of Israel’s persistent violations of international law; and Given that, since 1948, hundreds of UN resolutions have condemned Israel’s colonial and discriminatory policies as illegal and called for immediate, adequate and effective remedies; and
  • Given that all forms of international intervention and peace-making have until now failed to convince or force Israel to comply with humanitarian law, to respect fundamental human rights and to end its occupation and oppression of the people of Palestine; and
  • In view of the fact that people of conscience in the international community have historically shouldered the moral responsibility to fight injustice, as exemplified in the struggle to abolish apartheid in South Africa through diverse forms of boycott, divestment and sanctions; and
  • Inspired by the struggle of South Africans against apartheid and in the spirit of international solidarity, moral consistency and resistance to injustice and oppression;
  • We, representatives of Palestinian civil society, call upon international civil society organizations and people of conscience all over the world to impose broad boycotts and implement divestment initiatives against Israel similar to those applied to South Africa in the apartheid era. We appeal to you to pressure your respective states to impose embargoes and sanctions against Israel. We also invite conscientious Israelis to support this Call, for the sake of justice and genuine peace.
  • These non-violent punitive measures should be maintained until Israel meets its obligation to recognize the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to self-determination and fully complies with the precepts of international law by:
  • 1. Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Wall
  • 2. Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and
  • 3. Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN resolution 194.

Help Doaa and her family rebuild their lives

This is a fundraiser for Doaa and her family. Their new house was targeted in an airstrike, and they were forced to evacuate multiple times to escape death, her and her entire family. All her children have suffered psychological harm due to the war. They had built a new house, and owned a shop but unfortunately, both were targeted and completely destroyed. Now they are displaced in an unsafe place without life necessities. We kindly ask for your assistance to rebuild their lives and their home anew. We would be deeply grateful to you.

Boycott countries that support genocide, no strong economy no power.

Boycotting specific products and services can contribute to the cause, but we must take a broader stance. We should not just boycott McDonald's; we should boycott all the products and services from countries that support the genocide. These countries are considered superpowers because of their strong economies, but once their economies falter, their influence diminishes significantly. By targeting their financial strength, we can weaken their power.

Countries that supports genocide: 1.US 2.All Europe except Ireland&Spain. 3.India 4.UAE 5 Egypt 6. China (because of what happened to uyghur).

What to boycott

  1. All products and services made by these countries.
  2. All products and services that belong to these countries but are manufactured in different countries. For examples; on the bag of lays chips you might see "made in Malaysia", but the company still belong to US.
  3. Tourism
  4. Selling things to them.

*reddit is a US company, we need to look for a social media that doesn't belong to none of these countries.
