JVP STATEMENT ON STATE OF EMERGENCY IN JERUSALEM AND THE WEST BANK
04 OCTOBER 2015 PRESS RELEASE
Jewish Voice for Peace mourns the lives lost in violent attacks, both Palestinian and Israeli, in the last days and weeks.

We are deeply alarmed by the escalated level of collective punishment being imposed on Palestinians by both settlers and the Israeli Army. In the last 24 hours, the IDF has used live fire in Jenin and elsewhere in the West Bank, wounding over 100 Palestinians. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society has declared a state of emergency after their staff and ambulances were attacked 14 times in the last 72 hours.

The tensions over Al Aqsa/the Temple Mount clearly have been a flashpoint for this wave of violence, but its roots stretch much deeper. Months of incitement by the Israeli government and decades of occupation, institutionalized discrimination, and displacement have led to this point.

What will it take for the status quo to change? For the walls to be demolished, the raids ended, the checkpoints dismantled, the families reunited? These events are an urgent reminder of our responsibility to join hands with those who seek equality and justice for all the people of Palestine and Israel. Nonviolent protest, economic pressure, and an end to unconditional US military and diplomatic aid to Israel are the path towards a long term resolution that ends the occupation and brings about full equality for all people in the region.

「猶太和平之聲」對於耶路撒冷與西岸緊急狀態的聲明

猶太和平之聲對於在過去幾天與數周暴力攻擊裡巴勒斯坦與以色列雙方所逝去的生命，深表哀悼。

對於以色列屯民與軍方升高強加於巴勒斯坦人的集體懲罰，我們深感震驚。在過去24小時裡，以色列占領軍在傑寧與西岸的其他地方開火，造成超過100名巴勒斯坦人受傷。巴勒斯坦紅新月會在雇員與救護車於72小時內受到14次攻擊後，宣佈進入緊急狀態。

關於阿克薩清真寺／聖殿山的緊張態勢固然是這一波暴力事件的引爆點，但其根源並不只僅於此。以色列政府數月來的煽動、數十年的占領、習以為常（制度化）的歧視、以及強迫遷移才是癥結所在。

該如何改變這個狀態？該如何拆除隔離牆、終止襲擊、移除檢查哨、使家人得以重聚？這些事件成為對我們極為迫切的提醒，要與那些為巴勒斯坦與以色列尋求平等與正義的人們共同攜手。透過非暴力抗爭、經濟施壓、終結美國對以色列無條件的軍事與外交援助，作為促成長期決議的途徑，藉此結束占領，迎來這地區所有人的完全平等。
