“We stand here, in front of the American Embassy, condemning America’s hypocrisy as a benefactor of Israel’s colonization of Palestine,” he stressed.

The AWG Presidium also demands that international institutions, especially the UN, take responsibility for the suffering of the Palestinian people. Because it was the UN that became the legitimator for Zionist Israel to carry out colonization through Resolution 181 of 1947.

This responsibility includes taking firm steps against Israel’s various human violations against the Palestinian people and the Al Aqsa Mosque and urging the UN to expel Israel from UN membership.

Hundreds of Muslims from various regions of Indonesia, such as Jakarta, Bogor, Bekasi, Depok, Medan and others attended Solidarity Action with Palestine at the US Embassy in Jakarta.
