Plus de 120 ONG palestiniennes dénoncent le “message spécial” de la présidente de la Commission européenne célébrant les “75 ans d’indépendance d’Israël et d’amitié avec l’Europe”

PNGO Portal, 30/4/2023

Les organisations de la société civile palestinienne soussignées dénoncent et rejettent avec véhémence la déclaration honteuse faite par la présidente de la Commission européenne, dans laquelle elle a célébré le jour de l’“ indépendance ” d’Israël en utilisant des tropes racistes anti-palestiniens et en niant l’histoire palestinienne et les atrocités de la Nakba. Ces remarques s’écartent des principes politiques et diplomatiques de base et favorisent sans vergogne l’État occupant, qui se livre à la persécution, à l’agression et au terrorisme d’État dans le cadre du régime israélien contre le peuple palestinien.

Dans son discours, Ursula von der Leyen a affirmé qu’Israël avait fait “fleurir le désert”, utilisant un cliché colonial qui repeint en vert le projet colonial d’Israël, son déplacement du peuple palestinien autochtone et la confiscation illégale de ses terres.  Nous rejetons également l’utilisation par Mme von der Leyen de références bibliques qui s’alignent sur le récit de l’occupant israélien, lequel efface le peuple palestinien et nie ses racines profondes dans la terre et son droit inaliénable à l’autodétermination et à l’indépendance nationale dans son État naturel. Cela constitue le fondement de la tristement fameuse “loi sur l’État-nation” raciste qu’Israël utilise aujourd’hui pour asseoir la colonisation et l’annexion complète du territoire palestinien occupé depuis 1967, Jérusalem inclus.

Les horribles événements de la Nakba palestinienne qui ont ouvert la voie à la fondation d’Israël, notamment le déplacement de plus de 750 000 Palestiniens, qui restent à ce jour des réfugiés, la destruction de centaines de villages et de villes palestiniens et des dizaines de massacres, continuent de se manifester aujourd’hui de différentes manières, mais avec le même objectif global de déplacer le peuple palestinien autochtone et de le remplacer par des Israéliens juifs dans toute la Palestine historique, par le biais d’un nettoyage ethnique.

L’incapacité de l’Union européenne à demander des comptes à Israël pour ses innombrables crimes et violations des droits humains, y compris le crime contre l’humanité qu’est l’apartheid, alimente la culture de l’impunité dont jouit Israël dans l’escalade de son agression contre le peuple palestinien et sa terre, en particulier sous l’égide du nouveau gouvernement israélien extrémiste. Au lieu de contribuer à mettre fin aux violations israéliennes et à rendre la justice tant attendue à la Palestine, l’UE continue de récompenser Israël, la puissance occupante, en lui apportant davantage de soutien et de coopération sur les plans politique, économique et technologique.

Nous demandons instamment à l’Union européenne d’assumer ses responsabilités en s’abstenant de tenir des propos aussi incendiaires et répréhensibles et d’appliquer une politique de deux poids, deux mesures dans le traitement des questions liées aux droits légitimes du peuple palestinien, tels qu’ils sont garantis par toutes les lois et tous les accords internationaux pertinents. Nous appelons les élus européens à rassembler le courage et la volonté politique nécessaires pour faire pression sur Israël afin qu’il respecte le droit international en le tenant pour responsable par des mesures concrètes et efficaces qui s’alignent sur les lois existantes de l’Union européenne et sur les obligations et principes internationaux.

Enfin, nous remercions nos amis et alliés à travers l’Europe de s’être exprimés et d’avoir rejeté ce racisme anti-palestinien manifeste, et nous les exhortons à demander des comptes à leurs représentants. Comme toutes les autres formes de haine et de discrimination, la palestinophobie ne doit pas être tolérée.

More than 120 Palestinian NGOs denounce EU Commission President “Special message” celebrating “75 years of Israel’s independence and friendship with Europe”

PNGO Portal, 30/4/2023

The undersigned Palestinian civil society organizations vehemently denounce and reject the shameful statement made by the EU Commission President, in which she celebrated Israel’s “Independence” day by using racist anti-Palestinian tropes and denying Palestinian history and the atrocities of the Nakba. These remarks depart from basic political and diplomatic principles and shamelessly favor the occupying state, which engages in persecution, aggression, and state terrorism as part of Israel’s regime against the Palestinian people.

In her speech, Ursula von der Leyen claimed that Israel has made “the desert bloom”, utilizing a colonial remark that greenwashes Israel’s settler-colonial project, and its displacement of the indigenous Palestinian people and the illegal confiscation of their land.  We further reject Ms. von der Leyen’s use of biblical references that align with the Israeli occupier’s narrative that erases the Palestinian people and denies their deep roots in the land and their inalienable right to self-determination and national independence in their natural state. This forms the foundation for the racist so-called “Nation State Law” that Israel is now using to entrench colonization and complete annexation of the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including Jerusalem.

The horrific events of the Palestinian Nakba which paved the way for the foundation of Israel; including displacing over 750,000 Palestinians and rendering them refugees to this day, razing hundreds of Palestinian villages and towns, and committing dozens of massacres, continue to manifest today through different ways yet with the same overall aim of displacing the indigenous Palestinian people and replacing them with Jewish Israelis across historical Palestine through ethnic cleansing.

The European Union’s failure to hold Israel accountable for its countless crimes and human rights violations, including the crime against humanity of apartheid, fuels the culture of impunity that Israel enjoys as it escalates its aggression against the Palestinian people and their land, especially in light of the new extremist Israeli government. Instead of contributing to ending Israeli violations and delivering long-awaited justice to Palestine, the EU continues to reward Israel, the occupying power, with more political, economic, and technological support and cooperation.

We urge the European Union to assume its responsibility, by refraining from such inflammatory and objectionable language as well as from employing double standards in dealing with issues related to the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, as guaranteed by all relevant international laws and agreements. We call on elected European officials to muster the courage and political will to pressure Israel into abiding by international law by holding it accountable with concrete and effective measures that align with existing European Union laws and international obligations and principles.

Finally, we thank our friends and allies across Europe for speaking out and rejecting this overt anti-Palestinian racism and urge them to hold their officials accountable. Like all other forms of hate and discrimination, anti-Palestinianism must not be tolerated.
