mass ethnic cleansing of Palestinians

Francesca Albanese, The Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories: "Israel has already carried out mass ethnic cleansing of Palestinians under the fog of war,” the expert said. “Again, in the name of self-defence, Israel is seeking to justify what would amount to ethnic cleansing.

“Any continued military operations by Israel have gone well beyond the limits of international law. The international community must stop these egregious violations of international law now, before tragic history is repeated. Time is of the essence. Palestinians and Israelis both deserve to live in peace, equality of rights, dignity and freedom."

Ethnic cleansing is built on two pillars: demonizing a group of people and staying silent when they are slaughtered. Wherever you are, don't stay silent; call for your government to ask for an immediate ceasefire.
