UP Muslim students call for boycott of Israel products, and Palestine freedom
Cotabato City– Muslim students from the state-run University of the
Philippines (UP) urged a boycott of Israeli goods as they called for the
freedom of Palestine from the “unlawful, unrighteous, and unjust
occupation” by Israel, said a report by Rappler.com on October 21.
“We strongly condemn the unconscionable injustices and pure
evil being inflicted upon the Palestinian people.” They said they “do
not condone any attacks made against innocent civilians, regardless of
their religion, nationality, and political affiliation,” , the UP Muslim
Students’ Association (UP MSA) and the UP Association of Muslim
Students (UP AMS) they said in a statement.
They noted
that “The State of Israel, under its extremist Zionist regime, is not
the ancient Kingdom of Israel that King Solomon,” also known as Sulaiman
bin Dawud in Islam, “once righteously and wisely ruled.” They said
Israel “runs an apartheid regime where Palestinians are second-class
people.”
“The Filipino people and the people of the
West should also know that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. We
recognize the Jews who bravely object and reject the Zionist State of
Israel’s occupation of Palestine and call for freedom of the Palestinian
people. What Zionist Israel is doing to Palestinians now is what Nazi
Germany did to the Jews then,” the students said.
“It
is hate and dehumanization of the ‘other’ that exacerbates these
issues,” they continued. “Let our generation not make the same mistake.”
UP
MSA and UP AMS then issued a 10-point call to action, which seeks to
“condemn Zionist Israel’s siege of Gaza – virtually a plan to ‘sink
Gaza’ and its two million inhabitants, 800,000 of which are children,
‘into the sea,’’ the Rappler report said.
The Muslim
students also called for “a boycott of all Israeli-made products and
services as a way to cut off the State of Israel from revenues that fund
their war machine and their unlawful, unrighteous, and unjust
occupation.”
The UP MSA and UP MSA statement echoes
the calls for protesters worldwide demanding an end to Israel’s
bombardment of Gaza. This narrow strip of land has seen nearly two weeks
of intense air and artillery strikes, which, according to authorities,
have killed at least 4,100 people.
