Dear Comrades

 

It is a pleasure to participate in this important meeting of communist parties and unions from around the world as a representative of the Israeli Communist Party, the party internationalist Jewish – Arab, that our participation in this meeting comes from the strategic vision of the importance of sharing ideas and attitudes and create a unified strategy for our party to stand in the forefront of the struggle against capitalism and class oppression and for social justice and socialism and peace.

Tomorrow: two big protests in Israel against the massacre in Gaza

 

From Communist Party of Israel
 
The killing in Gaza continues. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed, thousands injured, air-strikes have caused utter devastation and entire families are left homeless. Civilians in the south of Israel are being held captive by a government which lies to them and abuses them. Destruction and death in Gaza will not ensure their future, but rather lead to more violence and killings.
