Petition is addressed to: die deutsche Bundesregierung
We demand that the German government:
- take a firmer stand for an immediate ceasefire and insist on the protection of civilians;
- deny all licenses for arms exports when there is a risk that they will be used in violation of international law;
- exert considerably more pressure on Israel to immediately end the illegal blockade and allow unhindered access for humanitarian aid;
- take effective measures in order to end illegal settlement construction by Israel as well as settler violence;
- demand, with a view to the International Court of Justice’s advisory opinion of 19 July 2024, that the illegal occupation be ended as rapidly as possible;
- actively support the international judiciary and the Commission of Inquiry of the United Nations;
- advocate for the release of all hostages and unlawfully detained persons;
- protect the right to freedom of speech and assembly and end the criminalization of constitutionally protected expressions of opinion in the context of Palestine/Israel.
Reason
More than 40,000 people in Palestine and more than 1,200 people in Israel have been killed in the current war. Moreover, there are at least 92,000 wounded and countless missing persons as well as deep traumatization. This escalation of violence must be stopped. Especially the civilian population in Gaza is suffering from the catastrophic situation caused by the repeated displacement of nearly two million people in their own country, with humanitarian aid being blocked, power and water supply being cut off and destruction on a massive scale. The UN speaks of a famine and a medical emergency. The situation in Gaza is not the result of natural disaster, but of indiscriminate violence and a deliberate blockade. The German government’s political reaction to this situation must change fundamentally.

Die Verbrechen des israelischen Staates grausam ohne Vergleich und das fehlen von Kritik und eines Waffenembargos seitens der Bundesregierung ist unhaltbar. Voelkermord und Vertreibung sowie jegliche Bestrebungen fuer ein grosses Israel duerfen nicht gedulded werden !!!
