We call for action to prevent Israel and its imperialist allies from crushing resistance in Gaza and imposing its “two state” solution. Since the cause of the Palestinians is a vital part of the worldwide struggle against imperialism, to let that happen would be a defeat for all of us. It must not happen.

The European and World Social Forums, the antiwar movement and trade unions around the world must demonstrate on the streets and take direct action against their own governments. We must launch an international campaign.

• Force our governments to end the siege of Gaza and send medical supplies, foodstuffs, fuel supplies, and materials to the infrastructure wrecked by Israeli bombardments;
• Organise the shipment of vital supplies directly to Gaza, demanding the unhindered right to deliver it and sending international observers to monitor the actions of Israel and PNA forces;
• Extend the growing trade union boycott of Israeli products and institutions through workers’ action and mass civil disobedience;
• Recognise Hamas as the legitimate elected government.
