🔊 Solidarity vigil outside the Embassy of the United States of America to Malta. (We encourage you to wear black 🖤)We the undersigned groups and individuals, concerned about the growing military escalation in the Mediterranean region, stand here today to deliver our message to the government and people of the United States of America.
⭕️ The catastrophic situation in Gaza, in Lebanon and the Middle East Region today was not inevitable. The failure to prevent this catastrophe is a horrifying failure of global and western diplomacy, and will go down on history as one of humanity's most shameful chapters since the second world war. Further deterioration may still be avoided.
⭕️ Recalling the letter sent on 13 October 2024 by the United States Government, exhorting the Government of Israel to take concrete measures to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza over the following 30 days, or face a reduction in the military support being funded by the United States taxpayer;
⭕️ Recalling the succession of warnings by the UN rapporteur, by international bodies and by the United States Government of the possibility that war crimes were being committed by Israel in Gaza;
⭕️ We note with the deepest concern that the humanitarian situation has continued to deteriorate further, most critically in northern Gaza.
⭕️ We further note that the deadline of 12 November, set by the Government of the United States, has come and gone, however the concerns that were raised repeatedly by the United States Government have not yet been translated into meaningful action.
⭕️ We urge you to take concrete steps to stop facilitating, enabling, and further aggravating the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe through the supply of weapons and military hardware to the region.
