#PROSECUTE GENOCIDE
The UK has a legal and moral obligation to prosecute its nationals who travel abroad to participate in, support, or profit from war crimes. Prosecute Israeli war crimes!
SEND A LETTER TO THE METROPOLIS COMMISSIONER!
October 7th marks one year since the Israeli government initiated its genocidal campaign against the people of Gaza and occupied Palestine, leading to widespread destruction, immense suffering, and severe disruptions to the delivery of humanitarian aid. These actions have crippled Gaza's ability to recover and rebuild.
Israel’s actions in the occupied Palestinian territories have been condemned by human rights organizations and the international community as violations of international law. These include illegal settlements, forced displacement, indiscriminate bombings of civilian areas, and the systemic oppression of Palestinians, constituting ethnic cleansing and genocide.
The UK has a legal and moral obligation to prosecute its nationals who travel abroad to participate in, support, or profit from such atrocities. As with other war crimes, the principle of universal jurisdiction allows states to prosecute individuals for heinous crimes committed beyond their borders. By failing to investigate and prosecute those involved, the UK becomes complicit in these violations of human rights.
To mark this day, Human Aid & Advocacy is launching the 'Prosecute Genocide' campaign, aimed at pressuring UK lawmakers to hold accountable those responsible for facilitating, participating in, or contributing to war crimes and violations of international law that have not only harmed Palestinians but also obstructed vital aid effort

Humanitarian Aid in conflict zones is just a plaster over a deep wound, while immediate aid is a completely necessary component of humanitarianism, it does not work to stop the deep wound in the first place. An analogy that can be drawn is that we see the oppressed laying on the floor, subdued due to the foot of the oppressor on his neck. Aid is brought to the oppressed feeding him and then he is left in his situation, ignoring the elephant in the room, the foot of the oppressor on his neck.
Aid must go hand in hand with Advocacy. Aid is the immediate response while Advocacy is the long term effort to remove the need for aid in the first place. The focus of our Advocacy will be two fold:
We aim to do this via awareness campaigns and telling stories that are often missed or ignored.
