Media campaign demands freedom for Lebanese prisoners in Zionist jails | Samidoun: Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network

In support of Lebanese prisoners held captive in Zionist prisons, and in solidarity with their steadfastness and confrontation of the jailers, Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, in collaboration with the International Campaign to Free Lebanese Prisoners, launched a media campaign to highlight the prisoners and their stories with large billboards on the Old Airport Road (Imam Khomeini Boulevard) in Beirut, Lebanon.

This initiative is part of a number of popular efforts aimed at highlighting the situation of Lebanese prisoners in “Israeli” prisons and exposing the ongoing violations against them, amidst continued international silence regarding their suffering. The Zionist entity has refused to acknowledge it is holding these abducted Lebanese in multiple cases, continues to deny them access to lawyers and even the International Committee of the Red Cross, and has imprisoned many of the at least 29 Lebanese captives in the infamous underground “Rakevet” wing of Ayalon prison. They are held alongside over 9600 Palestinian prisoners in Zionist jails — subject to torture, abuse, medical neglect and mistreatment and starvation, at the hands of an illegitimate occupying entity.

The imprisonment of these Lebanese prisoners is part and parcel of the ongoing Zionist attacks and overt violations of the “ceasefire” in Lebanon, accompanied by ongoing bombings, assassinations, and attempts to occupy and erase the villages and population of South Lebanon, which has already displaced over a million Lebanese. Hezbollah, the Lebanese Resistance, continues its battle to defend Lebanon, its people, and the South from these genocidal Zionist forces. It continues this Resistance as the United States is attempting to coerce Lebanon into “direct negotiations” with the same Zionist enemy daily murdering and imprisoning Lebanese citizens and occupying Lebanese land, while the U.S. provides intelligence information, military aid and support, and direct weaponry for the Zionist war against Lebanon and its people.

The Resistance has clearly enumerated five points for a real ceasefire, including the liberation of the prisoners from Zionist jails, as well as a permanent end to the aggression in all of Lebanon, by air, land, and sea; withdrawal of the “israeli” enemy from the occupied territories up to the border; the return of all displaced people and families to their villages and towns up to the border; and reconstruction with international and Arab support and national responsibility.

This media campaign aims to express an ongoing and intensified public commitment to the prisoners’ cause and the steadfastness of their honorable and patient families, as a matter of liberation and human dignity. The revolutionary struggle for their freedom will remain present in the field, on the streets, and at all levels, until their liberation.

The media initiative is part of a broader campaign of popular and media activities at both the national and international levels, aimed at keeping the issue of the Lebanese and Palestinian prisoners alive in the public consciousness and strengthening popular solidarity with their steadfastness inside the occupation’s prisons.

Only Empire’s fascists refuse to budge, but even Israelis have had enough! Endless wars are not sustainable. Apartheid Nations = genocide for billions and ecocide for all.

>> The war doesn't start when they inevitably retaliate against your invasion of their home.

It wasn't an #invasion. It was #UnitedNations vote to partition #BritishPalestine into #TwoStates#Israel & #Palestine for the 2 major ethnicities in the region.

Months earlier in 1947, #India and #Pakistan accepted another #UNGA vote to partition #BritishIndia into 2 states.

Palestinians never fought #Ottomans or #British for freedom. THEY REJECTED compromise and chose war against Israel

Yesterday, we were delighted to have a chat with #DovKhenin, Israeli politician and activist, after a screening of the documentary "Comrade Dov" by Barak Heymann.

#Separatists worldwide, please note:
It is ok to harbor #secession dreams if you can get the #UN to support your cause.

The UN envoy to Western #Sahara suggested dividing the territory between #Morocco and #Polisario Front as a way to settle the decades-long conflict and give residents a chance to decide under who they want to live.

But just because UN says so doesn't mean all parties accept it. Remember the UN #TwoStates Solution for #Israel and #Palestine from 1947?

UN envoy proposes partitioning Western Sahara

The U.N. envoy to Western Sahara is suggesting that dividing the territory between Morocco and the pro-independence Polisario Front could be one way to settle the decades-long conflict. Staffan de Mistura has during his tenure proposed partition as one potential solution, according to a briefing provided to a closed meeting of the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday, which was obtained by The Associated Press. Though some countries involved expressed interest, both Morocco and Polisario showed no sign of willingness to consider partition. The Western Sahara is a former Spanish colony in northwest Africa that the United Nations considers “non-self-governing.”

Thanks for posting this quote & link to the Freedland article.

Jonathan Freedland is a voice worth listening to, on all subjects. Perceptive, fearless, empathetic. One of the people who can make you change your mind, by virtue of their own ability to question their own position.

This Freedland piece on Israel and Palestine is no exception. It makes us think.

"We’re debating […] dead moral questions, and for the same reason we always do: because that debate allows us to ignore the ones that might lead us to a different place than the celebration of our own liberal righteousness."

Ich vermute mal damit hat sich die #TwoStates Lösung für #Israel und #Palästina endgültig erledigt. Egal wie es dazu gekommen ist, es ist einfach nur traurig. Dieser Angriff wird den Palästinensern nicht helfen. Er besiegelt vermutlich ihren Untergang. Und ggf. auch den aller Sympathisanten mit dem Angriff.
