Majed Bamya on Israel Bombing Gaza: ‘Nothing Justifies Collective Punishment’

‘Nothing justifies killing families by the dozens’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BAMYA: "We want all civilians to be safe. And, you know, I have to say, as we saw this release, we are having thousands of Palestinians, civilians, being killed now for 10 days. They need action to save lives. We need to have an immediate cease-fire. We need humanitarian access. No humanitarian aid has entered the Gaza Strip, which is collapsing in front of our eyes. And this is unacceptable under international law, under any principle of humanity. Palestinian lives are also worthy of being saved, of being protected. Nothing justifies collective punishment. Nothing justifies sieges. Nothing justifies killing families by the dozens."
