Press
Release
The
Timor-Leste Association of Ex-Political Prisoners and
Klibur
Solidariedade (Solidarity Association)
send
congratulations and solidarity to Palestinian Political Prisoners
Date:
6 June 2017
We
congratulate the 1,500 Palestinian Political Prisoners (men, women and
children) who, through their 40-day collective hunger strike, have secured
basic rights which had been systematically denied them by Israel. We celebrate
the courage and commitment of your collective action; we celebrate your success.
As
we celebrate, we also declare our solidarity and call attention to the long and
continuing struggle for freedom, equality, self-determination and basic human
rights of the Palestinian people. Our national history teaches us that
when faced with occupation, oppression and injustice, there is no choice but to
resist. “To resist is to win.”
Many
of us are ex-political prisoners, jailed by Indonesia because we refused to simply
accept an illegal occupation of our land. During Indonesia’s brutal occupation,
we stood up to military violence and human rights abuses; we stood up against
an international order oriented to U.S. corporate interests and militarism. We
stood up for the dignity of ourselves, our families and our communities. We
stood up for for our vision of peace and justice, now and in the future. We
encourage political prisoners and wish to tell you that many times, our
struggle for a noble cause demands sacrifice and determination. We must believe
that the truth will win and will bring happiness to many people. All of your
sacrifices will be acknowledged; tudo vale a pena (‘everything is worth the
effort’).
Today,
as we celebrate with you, we also stand against the widespread detention of
Palestinians for defending their basic rights. According to the NGO Palestinian
Prisoner’s Club, there are now 6500 Palestinian political prisoners, including
300 children. We stand against the continuing role of the US as a major
supporter of militarism and occupation. We stand for against the denial of
Palestinian’s basic rights by Israel. We stand for Palestinian’s rights to
clear water, safe shelter, food and basic social services, equality before the
law. “A luta continua.” The struggle continues.
