Message from Freddie KANOUTE – former professional footballer

I would have loved to join you today on this noble cause to demand Israel stop its aggression against a defenceless people.
• Israel has been violating international law for decades, committing war crimes and crimes against humanity – with complete impunity.
• Defenceless women, children even the disabled and the sick in hospitals are massacred everyday – with no consequences for Israel at all.
• This is not a war against Hamas or terrorists – it is the genocide of a people. This is not a conflict between equals – it is brutal aggression by an occupation army against a people living under a total blockade and siege.
• The blockade and siege of Gaza must be lifted now – the blockade is illegal collective punishment by a cruel occupier that is Israel.
• I ask our European and world leaders, how many more war crimes must
Israel commit; and how many more women and children must it kill with the bombs you sold Israel; before you condemn them as war crimes?
• I ask the UN Secretary General Mr Ban Ki Moon – even after Israel bombs your UN school sheltering women and children, why do you not have the courage to condemn it as a war crime?
• I call on our European governments and the UN to impose sanctions on Israel.
Free Palestine!
