In the midst of the commotion over Hamas terrorist attacks in the Middle East, left groups They mobilized this Monday to the headquarters of the Israeli embassy to demand the right of the palestinian people in that region and to denounce the “responsibility” of the Tel Aviv government in the upsurge of violence.
Fortunately there were no incidents to regret nor moments of anxiety in the midst of the tension prevailing since the Islamic guerrilla attacks were recorded in towns bordering the Gaza Strip. In the evening, in fact, there was a march in support of the Israeli government on State of Israel Avenue, in the Almagro neighborhood.
Since after noon there was a strong operational of the City Police that fenced off 700 Mayo Avenue and cut off the rest of the access to the Israeli diplomatic headquarters in Buenos Aires.
Before the astonished gaze of some tourists leaving the traditional Cafe Tortoni, hundreds of members of leftist organizations arrived at the place; Flags of the Polo Obrero, the Teresa Rodríguez Movement among others were seen, which arrived at the scene in support of the Argentine Committee in Solidarity with Palestine. Most banners They demanded the “cessation of bombing” in the Gaza territories.
In the first row you could see the former FIT presidential candidate Gabriel Solanobut also to his colleague from the PO and reference of the Piquetera Unit, Eduardo Belliboni. There were also several young women, dressed in Palestinian clothing, carrying flags of the nation that decades ago had Yasser Arafat as its leader.
Aware of the “unfriendly” nature of the march for the majority of the Jewish community, Solano justified the mobilization to this newspaper “because we want to warn that the Palestinian people are about to suffer a massacre greater than those that have been recorded for years.” and that a bombing is taking place on civilian areas of Gaza that do not have anti-aircraft defenses, added to the fact that the United States announced that it will send an aircraft carrier.”
The leader maintained that an “immense” military device is being put in place against what he considered “a defenseless people.”
In this framework, the PO leader assured that the persistent conflict in the Middle East “has to do with the fact that the Palestinians were expelled from their land 75 years ago. And that is why they leave to return to their land and that has led Zionism to apply repressive measures, has condemned them to an open-air prison in Gaza or an ‘apartheid’ in the West Bank.
When consulted by the bloody massacre perpetrated by Hamas At the weekend, Solano responded that “the Palestinians are subjected to a hopeless, explosive situation. I am a socialist and Hamas is Islamist, we do not have the same program or method of struggle, but we defend the right of the Palestinian people to reveal themselves and fight. And this cannot be defined as anti-Semitism.”
There were no leaders of the Palestinian authority present at the march and for the organizers their absence would be linked to their proximity to Kirchnerism which, they claim, is playing with the Netanyahu administration in this conflict.
Finally, Solano referred to the mobilization in favor of the Israeli government and against Islamic terrorism. “We have participated in events for the attack against the AMIA but we are not going to go today because the Zionist stadium and the aggression against Gaza are being defended. Even moved sectors do not take into account that what was experienced this weekend is what the Palestinians for decades. Hasn’t that moved them?” he asked and then warned that in recent years more than 5,000 Palestinians have died in the disputed region.
