The Filipino migrant workers in Rome condemns in strongest words
the US-backed Israeli bombing in Gaza City that has killed at least 1,700
Palestinians, including 398 children and 74 aged persons, and injured some
9,000 people, more than 3,000 children and encroach upon the Palestinian
people’s national sovereignty and right to self-determination and continue to
endanger the lives of Palestinian nationals and thousands of migrants.
We stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people in their
defense of their homes, livelihood and citizens. We join peoples of the world
in condemning the US-backed genocidal war being waged by Israel. Israel is the
biggest recipient of US military aid.
Wer also call for a stop to the
bombings and killings, fearing also for the lives of overseas Filipino in Gaza.
There are about 120 Filipinos in Gaza, and around 36, 000 Filipinos in the West
Bank.
We also vehemently criticize the
BS Aquino administration’s continued support for the US despite its
war-mongering in Gaza and elsewhere in the world. The BS Aquino government’s blind
support for US interventionist wars endangers the lives of hundreds of
thousands of Filipinos in Gaza, Israel, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and
wherever the US plans to strike.
