Statement LIS: the Zionist state will be destroyed and a socialist Middle East will rise from its ashes

The Palestinian people resist a new offensive by the genocidal State of Israel since the beginning of Ramadan in April. The Zionist advance intensified with police repressions from this 7 of May, a brutal attack on the Al Aqsa mosque on Monday 10 and the beginning of bombings of the Gaza Strip in the early hours of 11, which has so far caused the death of dozens of Palestinians, 9 of them boys and girls.

Behind the offensive is the Zionist attempt to evict Palestinian families from their homes in the Sheik Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem. Israel accelerates its steps in line with its plans to not leave even the slightest living space for the Palestinians. Now it is moving forward trying to disrupt the population structure of the city of Jerusalem.

Nevertheless, His efforts to expel the Palestinians from Sheik Jarrah and replace them with Zionist settlers were met with fierce resistance from tens of thousands of Palestinians.. The fight against the expulsion of Palestinian families from their homes has continued for weeks despite attacks by Israeli police and far-right settlers.

Since the beginning of the holy month of Ramadan, Israel blocked access to the central square of Jerusalem where Palestinians gather at the end of daily fasts, starting two weeks of clashes that lasted until the Zionist police had to retreat with the measure.

He 7 of May, Israeli forces returned to the fray, repressing thousands of Palestinian families who were praying in the vicinity of the Esplanade of the Mosques; attack that repeated the next two days, wounding hundreds of Palestinians who resisted as best they could.

The repression was intended to clear the area for the “Jerusalem Day” march to pass., in which the Zionists celebrate their invasion of East Jerusalem 1967. But the Palestinians resisted the onslaught and, despite the repression, prevented the eviction of the esplanade., forcing the Netanyahu government to divert the Zionist march.

On Monday morning 10, The violence perpetrated by the Israeli police continued brutally at the Al Aqsa Mosque, the spiritual center of the Muslim community in Palestine. They shot indiscriminately, even inside the mosque with rubber bullets, tear gas and stun bombs.

And this Tuesday 11, The criminal action continued with an intense bombing in the Gaza Strip that has left dozens dead and that the racist and murderer Netanyahu threatens to intensify..

Many Muslim states symbolically condemned Israel's attacks. Among them are puppet Arab states that have made friendship agreements with Israel., and Türkiye under Erdogan, who is working hard to establish relations with Israel.

From the International Socialist League we repudiate this new criminal aggression by Israel and call for the broadest mobilization and international solidarity in support of the Palestinian people..

Once again it is demonstrated that no solution is possible without the destruction of the genocidal State of Israel. Until Israel collapses and imperialism and its collaborators, local despots, be defeated, neither workers nor oppressed nations like the Palestinians can be liberated.

The International Socialist League defends the right to a single Palestine, Democratic, secular and non-racist, with its capital in Jerusalem. The only reinsurance for oppressed peoples is socialism.

That is why we have to light the fire of revolution in the Middle East and around the world. Yes workers, young boys, women and oppressed peoples unite and fight against imperialist capitalism, then we can enjoy a free life, happy and equal.

Long live the heroic resistance of the Palestinian people!!
