Emergency Statement of the Revolutionary Communist International Tendency (RCIT), 13.02.2025 [UTC: 10.30], www.thecommunists.net
The serial killers Netanyahu and Trump want to kill and expel the Palestinian people from their homeland. The devil duo threatens the Palestinians with "all hell" if all Israeli prisoners of war are not released by Saturday midday. They even phantasies obscenely that the U.S. would “own” the enclave and transform it into a real estate project for the super-rich – a “Riviera of the Middle East” as the crazy clown in the White House called it.
In short, after committing one of the worst genocides in modern history – slaughtering at least 61,000 people since 8 October 2023 – the Zionist Zealots and their American ringleader plan an even bigger crime!
The Palestinian people, the Arab and Muslim ummah, in fact the whole world condemns this monstrous massacre! Only in Israel does the large majority of the population support such a genocide but this is hardly surprising as this is a colonial settler state based on the expulsion and oppression of the Palestinian people. Even in the U.S. only 13% of the people support Trump’s vile plan.
However, we are not living in a world where the popular masses make government decisions. This is rather done by a small clique of rulers who are close-knit with the rich and powerful. These potentates either have been elected but ignore the will of the people (as long as they can) or simply act as brutal autocrats.
Hence, we have the bizarre situation where all Arab and Muslim regimes and most governments around the world reject Netanyahu/Trump’s Plan to annihilate Gaza but, still, the gangsters might be able to carry out their monstrous plan!
The same is true for Israel’s ongoing occupation of South Lebanon as well as the Golan Hight which violate all international laws and are opposed by nearly all governments around the world … but still Israeli troops keep these territories under control.
Why is this possible? The reason is that the opposition of these rulers is limited to empty words without any decisive actions. In many cases, they directly or indirectly support the Zionist killers. Several Muslim states have normalised relations with Israel in recent years and continue to trade with this terror state while the Palestinians are slaughtered. Just a few days ago, the Moroccan kingdom made an arms deal with Israel’s Elbit Systems and, according to Trump, it is prepared to take Palestinian refugees as part of the Zionist plan to expel the native population from Gaza.
Military dictatorships like General Sisi’s regime in Egypt or the monarchies in Saudi Arabia and the Emirates brutally suppress any public expression of support for the Palestinian people. While Europe has been rocked by mass demonstrations – more than 30,000 protest events in 619 cities have taken place since 7 October 2023 – governments continue to aid Israel and persecute pro-Palestine solidarity activists.
The Zionist monster and its American master must be stopped! And it can be stopped! How? By mobilising the masses around the world to aid the Palestinian resistance by all available means and to sabotage the Israeli terror state.
1) The biggest fear of Israel and the U.S. is the Arab Revolution. They worry that the Arab masses could threaten and overthrow the autocratic rulers and open the gates for a revolutionary flood which would break the imperialist grip on the Middle East and smash the Zionist state. Let’s be clear: there can be no liberation of the Palestinian people without the victory of Arab Revolution! A successful Arab Revolution is also the precondition to shatter the Israeli society and break a sector of the Jewish workers from poisonous Zionism.
The Arab rulers try to contain revolutionary upheavals by repression, on one hand, and verbal commitment to the Palestinian cause, on the other hand. The Egyptian and Jordanian regime publicly oppose Trump’s plan – despite their dependence on U.S. financial and military aid – because they are scared by their own people. If the Arab masses enter the streets, they could force their rulers to shake off the Zionist-American pressure and to aid the Palestinian resistance by any means necessary. This would immediately help the Palestinian people in this difficult hour, and it could open the road for the revolutionary overthrow of these regimes and the creation of workers and peasant governments.
2) The Palestinians in the Westbank must get rid of Abbas’ so-called “Palestinian Authority”. This is a corrupted body serving the interests not of their own people but those of Israel and the U.S. See how they have collaborated with the Zionist killers in attacking the heroic resistance fighters in Jenin! The masses must rise up, disarm the PA troops and expel the Israeli settlers and occupation forces from their territory!
3) The workers and popular organisations and the pro-Palestine solidarity movement in Europe, America and in all other parts of the world must mobilise in the streets and organise strikes and direct actions against support for the Zionist terror state. They must overcome the reluctant support or even outright hostility by pro-Zionist leaderships in reformist parties and trade unions.
Dockers should boycott arms deliveries for Israel, bank workers should sabotage financial transactions with the monster, Israeli goods should be boycotted and any form of collaboration in science, culture, sport and education must be stopped. The serial killers must feel the clinched fist of global solidarity!
No doubt, the situation is very serious! The bestial clique around Netanyahu and Trump are bent on to carry out one of the worst genocides in modern history. The heroic Palestinian resistance has accomplished superhuman things in the past months and years and that they are determined to fight back the cannibals. The Arab and Muslim masses, the free people of the world – they all must rise up and aid their brothers and sisters in Gaza!
All out on the streets – for Palestine’s freedom and ours!
Down with the Israeli Terror State! Boycott the beast and sabotage the Zealots!
Support the Palestinian resistance with effective support – from aid to arms!
Palestine, red and free – from the River to the Sea! For a socialist federation of the Middle East!
