International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People
Show your support for Palestine

The United Nations General Assembly, in 1977, announced November 29th as the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The objective of this day is for the International community to focus attention on the fact Palestinian people live under Israeli occupation since 1948.  It is to highlight the fact that the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people continue to be oppressed and suppressed under the current Israeli apartheid system. 

The mission of International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People is to bring attention to the lack of concern exhibited by United Nation members for the indigenous inhabitants of Palestine. United Nation members went along with the preliminary suggestions of the Special Committee on Palestine to partition Palestine based upon the nationalist claims of the Zionist movement and European guilt for the Nazi Holocaust. Unfortunately, members of the United Nations Committee on Palestine did not predict the impractical of their solution to grant eight percent of the Jewish population fifty-six percent of the land, while reserving forty-three per cent of the land for ninety-two percent of the Palestinians.

    There will be no just peace without a stop of ongoing house demolitions.
    There will be no just peace without an end of the blockade of Gaza.
    There will be no just peace without releasing innocent prisoners.
    There will be no just peace without ending and condeming the killing.
    There will be no just peace without a life of dignity for ALL people."
