Cancel Prince William's Visit to Israel

The Issue

There has been widespread condemnation of Israel's deadly attacks on Palestinians - the latest being on 30 March 2018, when 16 people were killed and more than 750 wounded by Israeli fire as thousands of Palestinian protesters marched to Gaza’s border with Israel.

Among the many previous incidents were the 2001 Israeli Nerve Gas Attacks on Palestinian civilian populations in both Gaza and the West Bank. The symptoms reported matched those of tabun, a known anticholinesterase poison belonging to a family of organophosphate nerve agents. There have been many other reports of chemical warfare practised on the Palestinians dating as far back as 1983.

Because Israel has rejected calls by the UN Secretary-General and the EU's foreign affairs chief for "an independent and transparent investigation" into the latest deadly attack, we demand that the British government show its revulsion and cancel Prince William's visit to Israel this summer.
