800 civil servants across US and Europe demand end to support for Israel
Jerusalem (Quds News Network) – In an unprecedented move, over 800 government employees from the United States and various European nations joined forces on Friday to call for an immediate halt to the diplomatic and military support provided to Israel by their respective countries.
The civil servants articulated their opposition in a joint statement, denouncing their nations’ backing of the Israeli government in its ongoing war of genocide on the Gaza Strip.
The joint statement underscores the employees’ concerns that their governments’ policies pose a “plausible risk” of contributing to severe transgressions of international humanitarian law, potentially involving war crimes, ethnic cleansing, or genocide.
The New York Times reported on the conviction of the civil servants that the current stance of their governments weakens their moral authority and diminishes their capacity to advocate for freedom, justice, and human rights on a global scale.
The document garnered signatures from government employees spanning 12 countries and the European Union, signifying a broad-based and coordinated effort to challenge the status quo.
