"We strongly condemn the Knesset's decision on the Death Penalty Bill. Such discriminatory legislation must have consequences. We once again call to suspend the Association Agreement and impose sanctions."

Hannah Neumann, Member of the European Parliament

"We need a mass world coalition to stop Israel’s genocidal march throughout the Middle East and the lawless terrorism and apartheid within its own borders. Boycott, Divest, and Sanction is the recipe to stop further violence. It’s Dr Martin Luther King’s strategy of peaceful change. We must deploy it en mass and create a coalition of those who we may not agree with politically on other fronts but find common ground on this rolling justice. It has awoken the moral center in most people."

Mark Ruffalo, American actor and filmmaker

Moroccan international footballer Hakim Ziyech has publicly responded to Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir following threats over his opposition to Israel's execution law of Palestinian prisoners. In an Instagram post directed at the far-right minister, Ziyech wrote: "We don't fear Zionism."

"So, Ben Jamal and I have been convicted for organising a peaceful protest against genocide in a bizarre decision by one judge. This is a big attack on civil liberties. We will appeal. We call for a massive mobilisation in support of the Palestinian people for Nakba on 16 May."

Chris Nineham, British political activist and writer and founder member and vice chair of the Stop the War Coalition

"In Israel, new harsh apartheid laws have been approved, under which death sentences are imposed on Palestinians. Appealing to Netanyahu was futile. We need broad sanctions, an immediate halt to arms trade, and the immediate suspension of the association agreement. The world must respond."

Li Andersson, Member of the European Parliament

"After the right to torture Palestinians, Apartheid Israel claims the right to HANG Palestinians. The shame of the century continues. Ben Gvir belongs in The Hague."

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on oPt

"Israel has agreed state-sanctioned executions, but only for Palestinians. This is blatant racism! Proof that Israel is an apartheid state: one law for Jews & another law for Palestinians. SHAME! Boycott Israel!"

Peter Tatchell, Australian-British activist

"Israel introduces the death penalty. The death penalty is not a solution; it is an act of revenge and violence. It is also a political tool that could lead to mass executions of Palestinians. Criticism of the Netanyahu governments is not antisemitism; it is our duty."

Robert Biedroń, Member of the European Parliament

Demonstrators block a road in Utrecht, Netherlands, in protest against Israeli occupation's ongoing attacks on Gaza and Lebanon.

"Israel is the only UN member State without defined borders. It’s also a state that keeps occupying other country's land to expand its territory. This is a violation of international law and the UN Charter. This illegal land grab is now policy that faces no real challenge."

Nour Odeh, Palestinian political analyst and activist

"Israel is now more dangerous than Nazi germany was. A deep ideological hatred of all around them with a desire to seize lands. Fully armed by the West and with legal impunity. Nuclear armed and a total religious supremacist outlook. The most dangerous entity to ever exist."

Daniel Lambert, Irish Chief Commerical Officer of Bohemian Football Club

"China is not threatening Israel. Israel is threatening the world. Kudos to China for standing up to this global terrorist that will not hesitate to use its illegal nukes, as it prepared to do in 1973 until pressured not to by the US & Moscow."

Dr. Jill Stein, American physician

"Israel is the first government in history to legislate a death penalty that applies only to one ethnic group. Passing the death penalty for only one ethnicity is apartheid."

Mohamad Safa, the main representative at the UN ECOSOC

📍Seen in Melbourne, Australia

"Israel is a Terrorist State thanks to the unconditional support of the US, EU + UK. They are complicit in Israeli War Crimes."

Mick Wallace, former Member of the European Parliament

"What Netanyahu means by "Israel is the only one defending the Christian community": Bombing churches in Gaza and Lebanon, murdering priests, banning Christians from praying in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and launching attacks every week on Christian villages in the West Bank."

Jules El-Khatib, German politician and human rights activist

"The anti-apartheid conscience continues to grow. Outside and inside Israel. Humanity is alive. We must move altogether. And act together in the name of our absolute equal dignity and equal rights. Everywhere. Unity of the people, unity of the struggles."

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on oPt

"It is painful to see what Israelis are doing to the Palestinians -soldiers, settlers, security, police, very tangibly. This is not a war. It is to torture a people: physically and psychologically. And it is part of their erasure."

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on oPt

At a protest in Berlin supporting Lebanon on April 8, 2026, a demonstrator delivered a harrowing account of escalating strikes, describing overwhelmed hospitals and mounting casualties.
