No Peace without a Free Palestine
Summary
A statement by Friends of the Earth International asserting that a lasting peace requires Palestinian sovereignty, liberation, and accountability for crimes committed over the last 48 months, while highlighting ongoing humanitarian and environmental crises in Gaza and the West Bank.
Key insights
- Friends of the Earth International argues that current ceasefire efforts have not stopped the violence, noting that Israel continues to break peace agreements and ignore international and humanitarian law. The organization states that despite some aid entry and returns to homes, killings and bombings have not ceased, and the humanitarian situation remains catastrophic.
- The document reports severe environmental and humanitarian degradation in Gaza, including contaminated water, polluted air, and toxic debris. It notes that settlers are deliberately blocking aid trucks, and thousands of people remain displaced without access to electricity, water, or food.
- In the West Bank, the document reports escalating settler and military violence. Specifically, since early October 2025, there have been 158 attacks against olive harvesters by settlers and occupation forces, involving the burning of crops and theft of harvests.
- The organization demands a peace plan based on justice, equality, and freedom rather than the decisions of the occupying power. This includes a complete cessation of attacks from both sides, accountability for crimes committed over the last 48 months in Gaza and the West Bank, and full recognition of Palestinian sovereignty.
- The statement identifies the role of global citizens' protests and boycotts in pressuring the United States to take steps to end the slaughter of the Palestinian people.
