Leaders of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), Communist Party of India,
Revolutionary Socialist Party, All India Forward Bloc and Communist Party of
India (Marxist-Leninist)-Liberation have issued the following statement:

 

Protest Against Israeli Genocide of Palestinians

 

In the light of the brazen violations of UN resolution, the ICJ rulings
against the genocide by Israel in Gaza and the escalation of such genocide
against the people of Palestine, the Left Parties in India - CPI(M), CPI,
RSP, AIFB and CPI-ML call upon the Indian people to express their solidarity
with the Palestinian people and against the genocide and atrocities being
carried out by Israel backed by the United States of America. The Left
Parties demand:

.        immediate ceasefire and recognition of Palestinian State with
pre-1967 ceasefire line and East Jerusalem as the capital.

.        Impose immediate military embargo on Israel and on import and
export of weapons and military equipment and stop all forms of military
cooperation.

.        Immediately impose sanctions on cooperation and movement of Indian
labour for industrial activity in Israel.  

.        Impose legal sanctions on Israel including diplomatic financial and
economic sanctions. 

.        Invoke the UN's special committee against apartheid to terminate
the apartheid regime of Israel and hold the perpetrators accountable.

Further, we demand from the Government of India:

1.     To cancel all export licenses and permissions to various Indian
companies for the supply of military arms and ammunition to Israel.

2.     Halt all arms imports from Israel.

3.     End all forms of complicity with Israel's illegal military occupation
and genocide, based on principles of colonial apartheid. 

4.     End all sorts of complicity with Israel's illegal military occupation
and genocide based on principles of colonial apartheid.

The Left Parties also urge the people to ensure political and diplomatic
resistance by the Indian government, in keeping with our legacy since before
independence. The Left Parties believe that the situation in West Asia has
reached a stage where global democratic opinion must assert itself to defend
peace and dignity.

The Left Parties urge all our respective party units across the country to
jointly and independently unite the Indian people effectively on the 3rd of
August.
