Sit-in in Beirut to Condemn Judaizing al-Quds
Condemning "the Zionist entity's decision of Judaizing Occupied al-Quds," the "Coalition of Lebanese national parties and Palestinian forces" performed a sit-in outside the ESCWA headquarters in downtown Beirut.
Raising the Palestinian flags as well as banners calling for the protection of Arabic identity of al-Quds and denouncing the Zionist plot, the protesters handed United Nations Secretary-General Representative a memorandum of protest concerning the Judaization of al-Quds and the expansion of settlements.
"The risks of jeudaizing attempts that al-Quds is facing and the dissemination of colonies of settlement around it falls in the context of a scheme of colonization to destroy the Palestinian cause and the abolition of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people guaranteed and approved by international law," the memorandum stressed.
The memo also urged Ki- Moon to "implement international resolutions on al-Quds and the rest of the relevant resolutions so that the Zionist entity stop building settlements inside and around the holy city, stop digging under al-Aqsa Mosque, and desist from violating the sanctity of mosques and worship houses."
In the same context, the memo called the UN to "stop the expulsion of al-Quds people after the confiscation of their land and properties and allowing the return of the expelled to their land."
The member of Hizbullah's Political Council Mahmoud Komati viewed that "the decision of the Judaization of al-Quds, is a blow to the Palestinian project of resistance."
"It is also a blow to the two-state project and an attempt to close the road in front of all facts that al-Quds is the capital of Palestine," he added stressing that "this step will not work because the Palestinian people will resist it as they did in the past."
