'Israel 2015: A government of extremists in charge of an-out-of control military' – New briefing paper
THE Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign has distributed a new briefing paper to members of the Oireachtas, the European Parliament and local Irish councils called Israel 2015: A government of extremists in charge of an-out-of control military.
The IPSC says:
“The paper is an in-depth investigation of the extremist nature of the new Israeli Government, the shocking views of its leading members, and the appalling recent record of the Israeli occupation forces in Gaza.”
Finally the document makes a series of recommendations that the IPSC believes the Irish Government must take “to help ensure that Israel is held to account for its actions and that the Palestinian people receive the justice they so richly deserve”.
The Israeli officials’ words and soldiers’ testimonies contained in the document reinforce the immediate need for arms embargo and other sanctions against Israel, the IPSC says.
