On the 71st anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba, the Palestinian Forum of Britain calls on all Palestinians - within Palestine and in the diaspora, the Arab and Muslim nations and all those who believe in the sanctity of Freedom around the world, to stand in unity and solidarity against the present attempt to annihilate our cause

For over a century, the Palestinian people have successfully confronted dozens of plots and campaigns to kill the Palestinian cause, and will succeed too in defeating this latest one.

71 years on from the Palestinian Nakba, it has become public knowledge that the US administration has finalized the details to end the Palestinian cause, in what is known as the ‘Deal of the Century’ which, according to numerous official US sources, will be announced after the month of Ramadan. Regardless of whether the plan will be announced in its final version, or whether it will represent a phase within a gradual plan, this constitutes a great threat to the Palestinian cause unless the world’s free people agree on a stand to confront and defeat it.

From the excerpts that have been leaked along with previous decisions related to Jerusalem and Palestinian refugees, it is clear that the Palestinian people are being told to accept the legitimacy of Zionist occupation over all of Palestine, in what resembles a mere commercial transaction from which Palestinians get the right to live in exchange for relinquishing their rights, their lands and their holy sites.

Therefore, the Palestinian Forum of Britain calls on the all those who support the right of every Palestinian to return to their homes, who reject Trump’s plans and policies, and who empathized with the Palestinian babies killed by the latest Israeli missiles including Saba Abu Arrar, along with scores of innocent civilians, to attend the demonstration held in commemoration of the Palestinian Nakba. This demonstration which will be held on Saturday 11th of May will sound out an unequivocal condemnation of Trump’s policies and a resounding support for rights of the Palestinian people, regardless of the 71 years of a horrific Israeli occupation.

The PFB also renews its calls on the British government to issue an apology to the Palestinian people for its historic crime which manifested in the infamous Balfour Declaration, and to support its efforts to see Palestinians attain their freedom and right to return to their rightful homes and lands.

PFB prays for those who paid with their lives defending Palestine over a hundred years, salutes the countless detainees who spent their youth and best years locked up inside Israeli prison cells and declares its solidarity with all those who resist attempts and confront plots to eliminate the Palestinian cause.
