Kevin J.
started this petition to
Jean-Claude Juncker - EC President

Israel was created to be a sanctuary for persecuted refugees.

But it is killing civilians that it is obligated to protect, and is running a propaganda operation to tell the world it has no responsibility for the people it occupies.

The EU must be clear that Israel has no right to take their lives.

Israel must stop finding pretexts to reduce opposing populations though killing, oppression and apartheid, and move to a genuine solution within the 1967 borders, without spoiling peace talks by increasing land-grabs, illegal settlements, and by provoking violence.

Israel has the right to self defence, but should do this primarily by making peace.
Palestinians also have the right to self defence, and should not be made to live (& die) in an unsustainable way as collective punishment for owning land that Israel wants.

Thank you all for signing. As this petition does not have the momentum now, I close it, in favour of the many other great campaign petitions on this subject. Please consider this one: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/israel_palestine_this_is_how_it_ends_loc/
