Israeli lawmakers’ West Bank annexation vote ‘colonial and racist’: Palestinian Foreign Ministry
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has condemned the Israeli parliament’s vote on the non-binding motion to impose sovereignty on the occupied West Bank, calling it “colonial and racist”.
The ministry said the Knesset’s decision highlights how futile it is to bet on the possibility that Israel would pull back from its plans to expand its occupation and implement a two-state solution.
It called for international sanctions to deter Israel from committing crimes against Palestinian people.
This is not a warning.
Famine has already arrived in Gaza. It is not a metaphor, nor is it a prediction. It is a daily reality.
It is the child who wakes up asking for biscuits that no longer exist. The student who studies for exams while faint from hunger.
It is the mother who cannot explain to her son why there is no bread.
And it is the silence of the world that makes this horror possible.
