European Communist Action: The peoples must condemn Israel’s warmongering

The ongoing aggression of the murderous Israeli state—particularly in Palestine—is now spreading to other countries in the region. We strongly condemn the Israeli attack on Iran, which also targeted civilians, and express our solidarity with the people of Iran.

This act of aggression by Israel cannot be seen in isolation. All of its imperialist allies—including the United States, NATO, and the European Union—bear responsibility, whether through direct or indirect support, ongoing military, trade, or political cooperation. 

Regardless of the statements issued by these imperialist centers, this attack draws its justification from the rising tensions with Iran—tensions deliberately escalated step by step by the US, NATO, and the EU. The US President’s attempts to distance himself from the consequences of this attack do not change this reality.

Furthermore, it is disingenuous to look for sincerity in the statements of Israel—a state that has been committing genocide in Palestine for months—or of the United States, a leading imperialist power that has brought nothing but war and destruction wherever it has intervened. Their opposition to nuclear armament is hypocritical, especially as they continue to saturate our region with nuclear weapons for their own strategic interests.

It is the imperialist system itself that continues to wield nuclear power as a threat—ignoring the tragic lessons of human history—and dragging the world toward an unthinkable catastrophe.

We should underline that the governments in our countries also bear responsibility by failing to confront Israel’s aggression and maintaining various forms of relations with it despite this grim reality it perpetuates and the crimes it commits.

We condemn the aggression of the Israeli state, which threatens all of humanity, and we call on the peoples to build strong resistance against this threat and to intensify their struggles and solidarity.

Communists, who have always been in the forefront of the anti-imperialist struggle, continue their explanatory, propaganda and agitation work to prevent further aggression. We call on the world communist movement to intensify mobilization work among workers in their countries to prevent the nuclear war looming over humanity.
