WFDY-statement and call for Urgent Action

The World Federation of Democratic Youth (WFDY) condemns in the most vehement way, the recent massacres of the Barak government against Palestinian people, committed against peaceful and unarmed demonstrators, which responded to the provocative visit of  Likud party leader Sharon to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, last Friday, 29th September 2000.
 This escalation of Israeli brutality against the Palestinians, which fight for decades for their just cause, is a new bloody provocation, this time even with rockets and heavy weapons resulting in tens of killed and more than 1000 of injured. It constitutes amongst others also a barbarian insult to the sentiments of all kinds of religious feelings in the world.
 Not only that the Israeli government is not implementing the UN-Security Council resolutions 242,338,181 and 194, but it is extending all these years its settlements inside Palestine, "blocking" the peace negotiations with a clear and cynical intention not to respect international law and principles. In this context, the responsibilities of the big imperialist powers for the unsolved conflict are very big.
WFDY reiterates its full support to the Palestinian positions for the complete withdrawal of the Israeli troops from the occupied territories of 1967, the establishment of the independent state of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital, with the return of all refugees and the release of all political prisoners.
 The Israeli oppression did not stop all these years, but likewise the struggle of the Palestinian youth and people did not stop. This struggle has our full support, till the final victory.
 We call upon the International Community and all member- and friendly organisations of WFDY,  to express their strong and categorical protest against  the brutal oppression of the Palestinians by Israel, to initiate and to participate in protest acts allover the world, declaring at the same time the solidarity with the Palestinian people.
 At the same time and after the withdrawal of Israel from South Lebanon, we demand their unconditional withdrawal from the Golan Heights of Syria.

The resistance of the Palestinian Youth and People will grow and succeed. The International solidarity of the progressive, anti-imperialist movement will contribute to this direction.

The Co-ordinating Council of the
 World Federation of Democratic Youth
