“Israel’s crimes are so heinous, their depravity so disturbing, Palestinian suffering so intolerable, and the UN so paralysed that people around the world are increasingly rising in outrage. This level of global solidarity – students on hundreds of university campuses demanding divestment; workers refusing to handle goods and arms to and from Israel; cultural workers and sportspeople condemning and boycotting events with Israeli participation; communities declaring apartheid-free areas and even countries taking tentative steps to impose sanctions on Israel – was last witnessed during the struggle against apartheid South Africa”(Global Anti-Apartheid Conference, 2024).
