The Campaign to Sue Britain

by Dr. Abdul-Sattar Kassem

To the brothers and sisters committed to the cause of Palestine, who support the resistance in all its forms, who stand against its enemies, and who work diligently and with vigor to liberate the Arab land from the usurping occupiers: I inform you that a campaign to collect a million signatures to sue Britain for its hideous, brutal crimes has been launched in Palestine, specifically in the West Bank. Some ten thousand signatures were collected in the very first moment the signature document was presented to the public.

Signatures will be collected at various locations where the Palestinian people are present, inside Palestine and outside it. The young people running the campaign appeal to all of you to contribute to this effort. It is true the campaign will not put Britain behind bars, but it certainly contributes to reviving the memory of the generations regarding Britain’s criminal role in displacing the Palestinian people and usurping their homeland. Palestinian generations are being subjected to a broad campaign of enforced ignorance and the suppression of awareness, and we must not surrender to this situation, which grows worse day by day.

This campaign is not factional or partisan. It is a Palestinian campaign that concerns every Palestinian everywhere. The young people running this campaign are Palestinians, and they are working for Palestine without any partisan dimension. They hope every hand will extend to contribute.

On August 1, 2008, I distributed an article explaining this initiative undertaken by the young people of the Watanuna Foundation, and in it I asked for a helping hand to be extended. Very few people were prepared to help these young people. The assistance required includes collecting signatures and financial donations. The campaign does not carry high material costs, and when a person contributes even a single dollar in support, they will have eased these young people’s task.

Below is the contact information for these young people.
