A-Infos (en) Italy, Sicilia, FA: Let's stop the wars. Let's desert the States (Communiqué) (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

The specter of global war is hovering in the Middle East. ---- The 
criminal attack carried out by the Israeli regime which, violating every 
rule of so-called international law, has attacked and heavily hit Iran 
is giving a strong push towards the unleashing of a conflict of greater 
intensity. ---- The targeted assassinations of the military and 
institutional leaders of the Iranian theocratic state, the bombing of 
nuclear sites, industrial plants and oil plants, residential buildings, 
the evacuation of an immense city like Tehran, whose population exceeds 
that of the entire State of Israel (which raises fears of the use of 
atomic bombs in Israel's possession), relegates the pro-Nazi Israeli 
government among the worst criminal regimes in history.

For more than a year and a half now, we have been witnessing the 
extermination of the population and the systematic destruction of every 
building in the Gaza Strip, which makes the Netanyahu government one of 
the closest heirs of those responsible for the Jewish Holocaust during 
the Second World War. Whatever the initial pretext, the disproportionate 
Israeli reaction, the indiscriminate bombings with the massacre of 
civilians, mostly children, the blockade of food aid, the destruction of 
hospitals, the torture and humiliation inflicted on the population, the 
plans for permanent occupation and deportation, the contemporary and 
bandit-like colonization of the West Bank, in reality respond to a 
general plan for the conquest and annexation of Palestinian territories, 
with continuous operations of ethnic cleansing, on which the State of 
Israel was founded from the beginning, the quintessence of the 
nation-state that anarchists have always repudiated, of which it 
uncovers the most deleterious and inhuman aspects.

The State of Israel generates hatred, war and death; it has no limits 
and has long and recklessly struck, in addition to the Palestinian 
territories, also Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Iraq and even Iran. The harsh 
and massive response of the Iranian state, with the launch of hundreds 
of missiles on Israeli territory and in particular on the cities of 
Haifa, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, shows that the ongoing conflict has 
reached such a high level as to induce other states in the region of 
Muslim confession (from Turkey to Pakistan, from Iraq to the former 
Soviet republics), declared themselves in solidarity with Iran, to 
support it militarily, opening up even darker scenarios for the future.

The total impunity enjoyed by Israel has so far been possible only 
because of the unconditional support given by the United States of 
America, the indolence of some Arab regimes and the shameful behavior of 
Europe. The Italian government, in particular, is justifying this latest 
war unleashed by Israeli pro-Nazis with the bifurcated statements of 
Foreign Minister Tajani, aligned with the warmongering theses of the 
Trump administration (the war would force the Iranians to give up the 
nuclear bomb that they do not possess!), and with the broadcasts of 
TeleMeloni (RAI 1), which broadcasts the Israeli government's press 
releases. The US administration, in particular, while reeling off empty 
words about ongoing conflicts, is actually preparing a global war to 
re-establish its imperial control over the planet: it is preparing war 
against China and attacking Iran through Israel.

The evidence of what is happening requires civil society around the 
world, and anarchist militants, to implement immediate actions to oppose 
the triumph of Nazi barbarism and the militaristic ideology that 
supports it. Solidarity between states, which has so far allowed Israel 
to continue to perpetrate its crimes, must be countered by 
internationalist solidarity between oppressed peoples. To this end, the 
many streams of protest that are silenced daily by the regime mass media 
should be unified in a common strategic proposal, creating, by 
distorting reality, that atmosphere of generalized impotence that seems 
to paralyze, or to fold towards exclusively institutional and diplomatic 
sides - which have indeed proven to be truly ineffective - every 
activity of opposition to the wars and Israeli tyranny.

A first broad international mobilization against the policies of 
rearmament, against the wars in progress and support for deserters and 
objectors, will be held on June 21, in conjunction with the NATO summit 
that will meet in The Hague. We call to gather all those in Sicily who 
repudiate armaments and wars.

But the mobilization must continue and become more radical, extend 
across our territories involving the greatest number of people, aim to 
take away space for action and mobility from the Israeli murderers and 
their accomplices, to press them through occupations, boycotts and 
sabotage, to exert pressure to keep all embassies, consular offices, 
diplomatic and commercial agencies linked to the State of Israel closed 
indefinitely, to rescind contracts and agreements for supply and 
economic and military exchange with it, to definitively interrupt the 
circulation of blood-stained Israeli goods and capital.

Alongside this, it is necessary to pose and concretely support the 
hypothesis of the reconstruction from below, without state protection 
and oppression, of strong, secular Middle Eastern societies, free from 
the blackmail of religious fundamentalisms and autocratic apparatuses, 
animated by mutual respect, and confederated among themselves, according 
to an internationalist and libertarian tradition that is laboriously 
re-emerging a bit everywhere in the region, and within Israel itself.
