The statement also cited Mahatma Gandhi’s statement wherein he had said that Palestine belongs to the Arabs and it was “wrong and inhuman to impose the jews on the Arabs.”

Signatories to a statement from around the world have expressed their concern over the fact that India – which had always supported the Palestinian cause – is under its present government supporting Israel by supplying it weaponry.

“India, from its inception, supported the just cause of the Palestinians. However, the present regime is assisting the genocide by exporting rockets, explosives and killer drones to Israel,” said a list of 372 signatories from India and other countries in a statement.

“The ongoing genocide in Gaza is nearing 600 days. According to official records, the death toll has crossed 54,000. Studies done by Lancet and others put the death toll several times more than the official numbers. An estimate by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor is that Israel kills a Palestinian woman every hour in the Gaza Strip, including 7,920 mothers so far. Israel kills a child in Gaza every 45 minutes,” added the statement.

The statement said that despite all these horrors, the world just stands by and watches the genocide, which is perhaps the first live-streamed genocide.

“Even though the world gets real-time updates on this genocide the world powers don’t raise a finger to stop Israel; rather, this genocide is aided by Western powers, especially the United States. Israel has dropped approximately 90, 000 tons of bombs on Gaza, every one of them provided or assisted by the United States. It is almost 4.5 times the tonnage of nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki,” said the statement.

It added that UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher has recently warned that 14,000 babies in Gaza could die soon if aid does not reach communities in Gaza. According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, 60,000 pregnant women are currently enduring severe conditions due to malnutrition, hunger, and inadequate healthcare, said the statement.

“Palestine is not an Arab/Muslim Vs Jews issue. It is the last great anti-colonial struggle against Western colonialism,” said the statement.

It also cited Mahatma Gandhi’s statement wherein he had said that Palestine belongs to the Arabs and it was “wrong and inhuman to impose the jews on the Arabs.”
