Wrexham Divided: WPJF on Israel-Wales match tonight

wpjf | 20.06.2012 08:33 | Palestine | Repression | Birmingham

At tonight's Israel-Wales women's Euro qualifier football match, members of Wrexham Peace & Justice Forum will invite matchgoers to put themselves in Palestinian shoes and consider how their lives might be affected by a wall running through their town, cutting them off from family and friends, education, health care, water, their land and livelihoods.

Suppose Wrexham was cut in half by a wall 8 metres high
Suppose Wrexham was cut in half by a wall 8 metres high


Background and call-out for the protest:
 https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2012/06/497067.html

Press release

This is the effect on Palestine of Israel's Separation wall, an atrocity that will be over 400 miles long on completion. Much of the wall illegally encroaches on Palestinian land and prevents the Palestinian people from gaining access to their own land and water supplies as well as vital services.

Israel has no right to enclose the Palestinian people in this way, just as it has no right to prevent Palestinian footballers from taking part in sporting events, nor to hold footballers such as Mahmoud Sarsak and many other Palestinians in indefinite detention without charge or trial.

WPJF members will be supporting the protest at the football match tonight in recognition of the part played by the sporting boycott of South Africa in ending that country's Apartheid regime. We hope that a sporting boycott of Israel can help bring an end to the Israeli Apartheid that has caused so much suffering for the Palestinian people.

We call on the Wales women's football team to refuse to play against Israel tonight. The young Palestinian footballer Mahmoud Sarsak, held for three years by Israel without charge or trial, is at death's door as a result of a three month hunger strike in prison. Palestinians are subject to arbitrary and extra-judicial detention that breaches international law and the victim's human rights. Refusing food is a drastic measure by people in a desperate situation to draw the world's attention to their plight. Israel was reported yesterday to have agreed Sarsak's release but has already reneged on a deal that saw 2000 Palestinian prisoners end a hunger strike last month, according to Amnesty International*.

Israel's sportsmen and women are not welcome here while Israel continues to imprison and restrict Palestinian people in contravention of international law. Until all are free..."

I wonder if the people of Wrexham would welcome a fence through their town if it stopped the people from the next town shooting at them, putting bombs on their buses and sending missiles into their school-yards ?

Gaza sending missiles into Israel, as they did just yesterday? You're not supposed to mention that. This is after all Indymedia. Here you're just supposed to proclaim that Israelis are inherently evil for no other reason than that they're Jew-- er Israelis.

In 1946, 80% of Palestine was granted independence. They went to bed Palestinians and woke up Jordanians.

They immediately ethnically cleansed all Palestinian Jews from that 80% of Palestine.

Israel also exists. It was created by the UN on legal authority
They decided to partition the remaining 20% of Palestine into 2 states with borders and govt based on demographic majority.

I'm sorry to see you fail to understand how the murder of thousands of Israeli women and children is not excused by the ongoing dispute over the creation of Israel.

The fence has been the single largest factor in stopping suicide bombs and attacks on innocent civilians and I assume you are against the killing of people on both sides of this dispute ?
