We, Palestinians, Jews, citizens of Israel, join the Palestinian call for a BDS campaign against Israel, inspired by the struggle of South Africans against apartheid. We also call on others to do the same.
We are devoted to the promotion of just peace and true democracy in this region. We are particularly opposed to Western governments' decision to boycott the Palestinians in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, most especially in besieged Gaza. This is particularly outrageous given the same Western governments' prolonged support of Israel's apartheid and other daily violations of international law.

From Israeli citizens - The Thessaloniki Book Fair Should Not Honor Israeli Occupation and Apartheid
We are Israeli citizens active against our country's policies of occupation, colonialism and apartheid. We are appalled to hear of the decision by the Thessaloniki Book Fair to make Israel its “guest of honor”.

Statement
We are Israeli citizens who are active against our government’s policies of colonialism, occupation and apartheid. Following the Palestinian civil society call for BDS we have had the opportunity to take a stand against Israel's criminal policies and support the international campaign, which includes divestment from companies that are complicit in such policies and profit from them. Insisting on socially responsible investments in this region is a crucial step in bringing about peace and justice to the people living in Israel/Palestine.

We also have great respect for your stance on Canadian indigenous issues and recognition of Canada's colonial past. We would like to ask you to express solidarity with a similar important campaign for the rights of another indigenous people, the Palestinian people living under Israel's apartheid and Palestinian refugees around the world.

We have come to the conclusion that an international campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS), as called for by Palestinian civil society, is a crucial and necessary step in bringing about peace and justice for the people of Israel/Palestine.
