About this event
- Gaza has now endured two years of genocidal assault, with the Israeli regime openly pursuing a campaign of extermination and ethnic cleansing. The humanitarian situation is catastrophic, with no obvious end in sight.
- Nevertheless, the Palestinian resistance forces and the people of Gaza continue to stand strong, demonstrating extraordinary resilience and courage. The Axis of Resistance, though battered by US and Israeli assaults, fights on. People the world over are expressing their solidarity with Palestine, and Zionism has been exposed for the racist, colonialist, ethno-supremacist ideology it is. In supporting and arming Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the US and its allies have further discredited themselves at home and abroad, contributing to a major crisis of legitimacy for the imperialist world order.
- This webinar will assess the current situation and attempt to identify the key factors supporting the objectives of peace and national liberation. What are the prospects for a ceasefire? What is the role of Iran, Yemen and Hezbollah? How does the struggle for Palestine connect to the overall multipolar and anti-imperialist struggle? How can the international solidarity movement be most effective?
