Statement of the International Expert Team of the Institute for Research of Genocide Canada regarding the crime against the Palestinians.
Members of the Canadian Parliament asked the Institute for Research of Genocide Canada for an expert opinion on the crime against the Palestinians in Gaza. The Institute for Research of Genocide Canada submitted to Members of the Canadian Parliament this opinion that they used in them speech in the Parliament of Canada.
To whom it may concern,
According to the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, the crimes committed by the State of Israel publicly and openly, in front of TV cameras and other media sources, against innocent, powerless, harmless, and unprotected civilians in Gaza constitute genocide – the most severe and complex crime against humanity and international law in the history of mankind which the entire civilized world follows and observes and the world’s leading countries support.
The genocide in Gaza is directed against the Palestinians, members of a national, ethical, and religious group whose goal is the complete extermination of the Palestinians – the victims of extermination. This massive and brutal crime fulfilled both elements of genocide – the intent and acts of genocide.
Israel’s state leadership publicly and openly states and repeats its intention to carry out the genocide and extermination of the Palestinians.
All acts of genocide defined by the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, the State of Israel openly and publicly has violated.
We call on the civilized world, above all Holocaust and genocide researchers, to raise their voices against the genocide of Palestinians.
Humanity must not remain silent or stay neutral in the face of evidence of genocide. With the crime of genocide against civilians in Gaza, the entire humanity is dying.
‘Never again’ has happened over and over again. We must take action to prevent genocide.’
