Hi, we are a team, Wisha, Meg, Paul and Alicia. We are tired, broken, and furious — watching the Palestinian people being exterminated before our eyes, day after day, while those with real power do nothing to stop it.

First came the bombs.
Then hunger.
Then the total lack of medical care for the severely injured, amputees, the sick (many of them children), and pregnant women.

Now we are watching entire families drown, fall ill from living among sewage, and freeze to death — forced to survive winter storms and floods while crammed into tents, without electricity, without drinking water, without shelter… while the world looks away.

When an earthquake or a natural disaster strikes elsewhere in the world, the international community responds with immediate solidarity.
But in Gaza — where the catastrophe is deliberately inflicted by a State — the media and political silence is deafening.
A silence that, by action or omission, enables and protects Israel’s ethnic cleansing plans.

PALESTINE BELONGS TO THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE.

The majority of Palestinians do not want to leave.
They want to live on their land, rebuild their homes, and fight to reclaim what is rightfully theirs.
That is just, legitimate, and protected under international law.

But Israel is not willing to allow this.
It continues its colonial project and territorial expansion toward the so-called “Greater Israel,” advancing through forced displacement, mass destruction, and indiscriminate killings.

On December 3rd, COGAT — the Israeli military body responsible for civilian affairs in the occupied Palestinian territories — announced that:

“In accordance with the ceasefire agreement and a directive from the political leadership, the Rafah Crossing will be opened in the coming days exclusively for the exit of Gaza residents to Egypt.”
In this context — and nearly a month later — this announcement is deeply incoherent and dangerous for the following reasons:

It is vague.
It offers no guarantees.
It establishes no transparent or internationally supervised mechanism.
And it would be managed by the same actor carrying out the annihilation of the Palestinian people.
This is not a solution.
It may be another deadly trap, a propaganda maneuver to buy time, or yet another form of psychological torture inflicted on a desperate population.

 
INTERNATIONAL HYPOCRISY
The international community watches as a people are cornered, pushed to the brink, and exterminated — without real sanctions, without diplomatic isolation, without trade or arms embargoes.

Meanwhile, the United States fuels the global far right with xenophobic rhetoric while simultaneously creating forced displacement through imperialist policies and unconditional support for Netanyahu’s government.

This hypocrisy is obscene.

 
MORE CONSEQUENCES
Due to the total absence of safe and official evacuation channels, criminal networks are already exploiting desperation.
Entire families are being forced to pay $10,000 or more per person, with no guarantees, no safety, and no certainty they won’t be scammed, abandoned, or handed over to criminal networks.

The risk of human trafficking is real.
The risk of death is real.

And yet many are willing to take it — because the alternative is waiting under bombs, hunger, and disease.
No one should have to choose between dying today or dying tomorrow.

This is why real, safe, and internationally supervised humanitarian corridors are urgently needed.
Never have we witnessed such extreme brutality combined with such total institutional abandonment.

WHAT WE DEMAND
1. Immediate and genuine opening of the Rafah Crossing in both directions, under independent international supervision, with transparency and security guarantees.

2. Permanent humanitarian corridors — not empty announcements.

3. Safe evacuation for those who wish to leave, especially the wounded, the sick, pregnant women,      children, and infants.

4. Immediate entry of medical convoys and humanitarian aid, food, fuel, and medicines.

5. Permission for caravans, mobile homes, and reconstruction materials to enter Gaza so that those who wish to stay can rebuild their homes and live with dignity.

6. SANCTIONS ON ISRAEL NOW — WITHOUT CONDITIONS:

• Full arms embargo
• Diplomatic isolation
• Economic and trade sanctions

7. Immediate withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza and the West Bank.

8. Enforcement of the rulings and mandates of the International Criminal Court, which has already determined the commission of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.

9. Criminal accountability for those responsible — without exceptions or privileges.

No more weak statements.
No more “concern.”
No more complicity.

REAL DIPLOMATIC PRESSURE — NOW.

Signing this petition is refusing to be complicit.
It is demanding an end to an ongoing massacre.
It is a reminder that international law exists to protect people — not to be ignored when it becomes inconvenient.

Palestine cannot wait any longer.

Let us take to the streets en masse at every demonstration and pressure our governments with daily emails.
Let us do what we would want others to do for us if we were in their place.

We need everyone to join this cause — to stand up and demand action.
Please sign and share this petition to show that we refuse to be complicit in the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Sign this petition and raise your voice for a free and safe Palestine.
