The Day After Gaza:
How Do We Address the Urgency of the Political Moment?
The conference will assess where we are in the struggle for Palestinian rights & freedom considering the genocide, starvation, ethnic cleansing and pacification of the Palestinian population across historic Palestine. Israel’s facts on the ground including settlements, Israeli-only roads, confiscation of land and natural resources, etc, though done in violation of international law, have been accepted by governments and thus “normalized”. Any plan to declare a Palestinian state that does not fulfil the requirements of statehood will be a move toward Palestinians living under a permanent apartheid regime.
Join Jeff Halper, ICAHD’s director from Jerusalem, and our special guests for:
- Understanding about Israel’s settler colonial agenda
- Palestinian voices on survival during a time of genocide
- Political analysis about where governments are going
- ICAHD’s resistance to ethnic cleansing as it stands with its Palestinian partners
- ICAHD UK’s equipping of campaigners
