"How much longer until hollow words of condemnation will translate into action to lift the siege, resume a ceasefire & save whatever is left of humanity?"
"It’s been 5️⃣0️⃣ days of siege on Gaza imposed by the Israeli authorities. Hunger is spreading & deepening, deliberate & manmade. Gaza has become a land of desperation."
"Two million people: a majority of women & children are undergoing collective punishment. The wounded, sick & elderly are deprived of medical supplies & care."
"Meanwhile, humanitarian organisations have assistance ready to get into Gaza. This includes nearly 3,000 UNRWA trucks of lifesaving aid. Basic supplies meant for people in need are expiring. Humanitarian aid is being used as a bargaining chip + a weapon of war."
"The siege must be lifted, supplies must flow in, the hostages must be released, the ceasefire must resume."
Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General of UNRWA

"Palestinians in Gaza continue to en starved before our eyes. We need urgent action. Palestinian hostages are being tortured in Israeli jails, even tortured to death!This depraved state must not be allowed to operate normally. Sanctions now! No one of conscience can stand by this clear act of genocide - stand up and be counted in all spaces."

"It's clear that the United States has no issue with the mass starvation of civilians to death. It really is in the hands of Europe now, to take action to demand that Israel stop this policy. When this red line is crossed, no other one will ever be relevant again."

"It's difficult to believe that it has only been a month since Israel resumed its full-fledged assault against Gaza. In 30 days, it murdered approximately 2000 Palestinians, assassinated several journalists, forcibly displaced 500,000 more, & bombed the last hospital in the North."
"Israel is killing approximately 70 Palestinians a day at this rate! Do we understand the gravity? That's aside from all the Palestinians dying from Israeli starvation, torture, and trauma. We cannot allow this bloodshed to go on for another month."
Ghada Sasa, PhD Candidate at McMaster University in International Relations

"There could be no Passover seder as usual this year. We could not tell our liberation story while our tradition, our history, our identities, and our tax dollars are being used to wipe Palestinian families off the face of the earth and abduct students who are speaking out for Palestinian freedom."
"Across the country during the eight days of Passover observance, thousands of Jews held Passover liberation seders saying: Stop arming Israel. End Israel's genocide in Gaza. Free political prisoners held by ICE. Stop the attacks on immigrants, trans people, and students."
"Jews have always adapted the Passover Seder to meet urgent political conditions, such as with the Freedom Seder of 1969, on the first anniversary of Dr. King’s murder. Genocide, fascism, and deportations carried out in our name as Jews demand that we adapt our sacred tradition yet again in the pursuit of justice for all."
"Anti-Zionist liberation seders took place in over 25 cities: Asheville, NYC, Detroit, Denver, The Rogue Valley, OR, New Orleans, Albany, Washington DC, New Haven, and more."
"In solidarity and prayer, students, elders, rabbis, and other Jews and people of conscience applied the ancient story of Passover, which describes Jewish exodus from Pharaoh, to the Israeli government’s ongoing occupation and genocide in Palestine and our government’s authoritarian repression."
"Passover teaches that each and every one of us must be part of the story of getting free. Taking seriously the mandate of the Jewish holiday of liberation requires us to show up with everything we have to bring an end to fascism and genocide. Come for one, face us all."

"Will the media finally do their job & ask No.10 who blocked the arrest warrant for Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar during his UK visit? It’s astonishing the PM insists he had no role in blocking a warrant for an unindicted war criminal. So who’s lying? Because someone is."

"Listening to the voices from Gaza, especially the youngest, is truly heart-wrenching. I am committed to amplifying your message, children, and I will."
"Meanwhile, let me recall: in October 2023 I delivered a report that should have shocked the world. This is what I said, as I presented: “Generations of Palestinian children, whether in the besieged Gaza Strip, the West Bank enclaves or annexed east Jerusalem, have seen their lives reduced to the bare minimum and, far too often, cut short as expendable... This is profoundly “unchilding”: it takes away the lightness of childhood and robs children of their future”.
"To give a sense of the targedy: in the nearly 15 years before Oct. 2023, Israel had: killed nearly 1,500 Palestinian children (1,000+ in Gaza alone)
- orphaned
- 100 of thousands
- injured 32,000+, many maimed for life
- arrested an verage 500-700 Palestinian children arrested per yearly."
Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on oPt

"For over 50 days, Israel has fully blocked humanitarian aid to Gaza. This is completely unacceptable. Vital supplies are running out and Palestinians risk facing starvation. With France and Germany, we urge Israel to immediately restart the flow of aid."

"I call bullshit. Israel has released a report into their killing of 15 healthcare workers, blaming it on "professional failures" It wasn't a "professional failure" it was a professional execution. One day our children will ask how we let this happen. How will we answer them?"

"The National Post and Mr. Hopper are once again spreading disinformation. They claim the Vote Palestine campaign calls for sanctions on “everything connected to Israel.” That’s false. The campaign targets Canadian complicity in illegal Israeli settlements."
