"There is no war in Gaza. There is a Holocaust in Gaza. Israel is facilitating a holocaust in Gaza", says Cassif and calls for a peaceful, yet unyielding resistance against the genocidal Netanyahu regime.
The recent mass demonstrations held in Israel against the heinous plans of the Netanyahu Government to takeover Gaza remind us that societies aren't monolithic entities; they contain conflicting forces within them.
Anyone with a fundamental perception of dialectics can understand the massive contradictions that exist in modern capitalist societies, including the Israeli one.

“Last night (Thursday) the Israeli cabinet approved the beginning of a full-scale occupation of the Gaza Strip. We warn of the continuation of ethnic cleansing, the war of extermination and the further destruction of Gaza,” Hazan says and continues:
Some argue that the war can be stopped or prevented from escalating. For example, Israel may back down under pressure from international solidarity or from actions such as boycotting Israeli products and companies.

The brutal war of annihilation raging in Gaza raises many questions about the solution to the problem that is the basis for instability and many conflicts in the Middle East – namely, the Palestinian issue. But in light of the results of the war and the systematic destruction of more than 75% of the territory of the Gaza Strip, the path to resolving the conflict has become more difficult and complex.
The Palestinian People’s Party, in the name of our people, political forces, civil actors, and all segments of our society, addresses you—and through you, all those concerned—calling for immediate intervention and the exertion of maximum pressure through all available means to halt the genocidal war being waged against our people, especially in the Gaza Strip, by the fascist Israeli government and occupation forces, with explicit American support and cover, alongside European inaction and disgraceful international silence.
According to the "Jerusalem Post", although police forces were present at the scene, no arrests were made. Eyewitnesses reported that the officers took minimal action, choosing instead to "contain" the situation rather than intervene forcefully.

Hadash MK Ayman Odeh was the main speaker at the weekly demonstration in the Jewish-Arab city of Haifa, he asserts that the “real struggle” in Israel is “between fascism and democracy” and “between occupation and freedom.”
While committing genocide in Gaza, the far-right government of Benjamin Netanyahu is simultaneously waging another war. This time within Israel, against the "internal enemy" who condemns and exposes the vile, genocidal acts against the Palestinian people.
These “enemies from within”, who have not stopped denouncing Netanyahu's leadership since the beginning of the war, have been fighting for years in extremely difficult conditions, in favor of peace and against the occupation.
The ongoing struggle of the KKE and the mass mobilizations currently taking place in Greece, in which the KKE and KNE are playing a leading role, have placed all kinds of anti-communists in a very difficult position. Supporters of Greece’s greater involvement in the war, alongside Israel and the USA, accuse the KKE of supporting ‘the mullahs’, the ‘theocratic regime’ of Iran, ‘terrorists’ and even ‘conservatism’ through its stance. They also claim that it it ‘fosters anti-Semitism’ because it supports the just struggle of the Palestinian people, who are being massacred by the murderous state of Israel.
Following the unilateral and undeclared military attack unleashed against Iran on Friday 13 June 2025 by the criminal Netanyahu government, we witnessed on Sunday 22 June the military aggression of US imperialism against Iran, bombing the nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
The statement reads:
The escalating conflict in the Middle East with the US attack on Iran entails nightmarish dangers to the peace and security not only of the region but also of the entire world.
