"From Balfour to the Nakba, from military occupation to the separation wall, and then the blockade, this land — so soaked in the promises of peace — has long been pierced by violence and injustice. And now, in Gaza, what we are witnessing is not the sudden outbreak of tragedy but the culmination of a slow moral disaster.
To remain silent, to equivocate, is not neutrality. It is complicity. And while diplomatic nuance has its place, so too does moral clarity. Gaza is not simply a headline or a talking point. It is not a symbol to be debated or politicized—it is a living, suffering place." (Dominic McGrattan)
"Where are the apologies for the tens of thousands of others who have been indiscriminately killed since the Israeli bombardment of Gaza began 22 months ago? Where is the honest accounting for the children mutilated, the mothers buried in their kitchens, the fathers killed as they queued for food, the paramedics and aid workers slain while tending to the wounded? What of the journalists and UN staff who, though visibly marked and clearly identified, were nonetheless treated as expendable?" (Mary Robinson, former Irish President)
