IRSCNA: Solidarity With Palestinian Hunger Strikers

Statement of solidarity and support for Palestinian hunger strikers

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

27 September 2011
Irish Republican Socialist Committees of North America

Solidarity With Palestinian Hunger Strikers

On behalf of the Irish Republican Socialist Movement, the Irish
Republican Socialist Committees of North America send our solidarity
and support to Palestinian political prisoners as they embark on a
hunger strike.

On 25 September 2011, the Popular Front for the Liberation of
Palestine announced that prisoners belonging to it will begin an open-
ended hunger strike on Tuesday, 27 September, in response to the
oppressive policies of the Israeli government and its prison
administration. They demand their rights and their dignity as they
struggle for victory.

Their stated demands: An end the solitary confinement and isolation of
PFLP General Secretary Ahmad Sa'adat, an end the policy of isolation
for all prisoners, an end the policy of systematic humiliation by the
occupation army against the Palestinian people at checkpoints and
crossings (particularly targeting visitors to prisons), an end to the
arbitrary denial of visits to the prisoners (especially the prisoners
from the Gaza Strip), and an end to the humiliation and abuse of
prisoners during transfer.

This year marks the 30th anniversary of the deaths of ten Irish
prisoners belonging to the Provisional Irish Republican Army and the
Irish National Liberation Army (the latter a section of the IRSM) on
hunger strike for their rights as prisoners of war within British
occupation prisons.

As fellow revolutionaries in the struggle for socialism and against
imperialism, we send our full support to the PFLP prisoners as they
embark on this hunger strike. Our strength is your strength as you
commence your hunger strike, and your victory will also be our
victory. As Che Guevara once said: "We cannot be indifferent to what
happens anywhere in the world, because a victory by any country over
imperialism is our victory, just as any country's defeat is a defeat
for all of us."

We also call on the International Committee of the Red Cross and other
human rights organizations to exercise their responsibilities and act
swiftly to demand that Israel ensures that Ahmad Sa'adat and all
Palestinian prisoners are freed from punitive isolation.

Onward to victory, comrades!

Personally I think the analysis makes sense. The problem would seem to be the time-scale as there is no sign of an outbreak of sanity or intelligence in Washington as it escalates its NATO-led WW lll. I suspect the coming presidential election may well bring in someone that will make us think Bush/Cheyney&Co were moderates.
