By Jabulani Charlie|  We would like to unreservedly condemn the bloodbath in Palestine yesterday, 14 May, by Zionist Israeli Occupying Forces that killed 58 Palestinians and injured more than 2,700.
It is shocking that nearly 60 unarmed people were killed by the lethal force of the Israeli occupying forces while protesting the relocation of the American Embassy from Tel Aviv in Israeli teritory to Jerusalem, in what the US President Donald Trump calls the unified capital of Israel. The innocent Palestunian peoole were also commemorating the 70th anniversary of the Nakba.
The Nakba saw 750,000 Palestinians, under the watchful eye of British authority , expelled from their homeland by mid-May 1948. The British Army played an active role alongside the Zionist in mastermiding the tragedy that befell the Palestinians which Britain was the author, architect and butcher in Palestine 70 years ago.
Today, another butcher – Donald Trump – joins the murderous Netanyahau in their quest to annihilate the people of Palestine. The murderous Zionist Israeli government celebrates the opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, whilst Palestinians are being murdered in Gaza. Peacefully protesting for their right to live as human beings. How much more suffering are Palestinians going to endure before the world wakes up with a solution?
The Zimbabwe Palestine Solidarity and Friends of Palestine Solidarity Movement join the United Nations Human Rights Commission, Amnesty International, other global civic society groups for human rights, progressive countries of the world and the peace loving peoples of Zimbabwe in condemning these latest murders by the Israeli apartheid regime. There is no justification for the killing of unarmed protestors resisting armed occupation empty handedly.
In the past six weeks, the Zionists Israelis have killed over 90 Palestinians. These included 3 members of the press. More than 11 000 people have been injured and many have been left with life altering disabilities. Since the beginning of April, Palestinians have been non-violently protesting in what has been termed the #GreatReturnMarch along the fence that separates the Gaza Strip ghetto from Israel.
We also applaud the move by South Africa and Turkey to withdraw their Ambassadors from Israel in protest. The international community must take decisive steps to bring the perpetrators of this crime to justice.
