Israel strongly opposed President Lula’s comments. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Lula’s comments were “anti-Semitic, belittling the Holocaust, and an attempt to attack the Jewish and Israeli right to self-defense” and “cross a red line.”

Meanwhile, Israel held a cabinet meeting on this day and adopted a resolution rejecting any measure to recognize Palestine as a state. This makes it clear that he will reject the ‘two state solution’ of the international community, including the United States.

“The Israeli occupation of Palestine is one of the longest and deadliest military occupations in the world,” said Agnes Callamar, Secretary-General of Amnesty International. “The decades-long occupation has committed widespread and systematic human rights violations against the Palestinian people.” It further enabled and deepened Israel’s apartheid policy imposed on all Palestinians,” he said, claiming that Israel had been violating international law.

He said, “The current situation in the occupied Gaza Strip, as seen in the judgment of the International Court of Justice that the risk of genocide is real and imminent, shows that Israel has allowed international crimes to continue with impunity in the occupied Palestinian territories. “The international community must recognize that ending Israel’s illegal occupation is a prerequisite for stopping repeated human rights violations in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories,” he said.

Secretary General Kalamar then said, “All countries must re-examine their relationship with Israel to ensure that they do not contribute to Israel’s occupation or maintain the apartheid system,” adding, “We clearly call with one voice for an end to Israeli occupation. ” “This is more urgent than ever,” he added.
