[BREAKING] Today, the US dropped its support for the Eastmed Pipeline!!🔥🌊
Their reasons? climate, financial & geopolitical.
Now we need the EU, Italy, Greece, Cyprus & Israel to follow suit - this is just the first domino! Read thread for more ⤵️ & see shorturl.at/bjuyD
[2/3] But the devil’s in the detail; the US still want to build a massive electricity line that could carry electricity powered by gas from the East med region to Europe. This electricity cable would connect Europe with illegal Israeli settlements, normalizing settler colonialism
Full room to discuss how the Israel Apartheid regime is intertwined with the climate crisis at the People’s Summit #cop26
« We will make the apartheid fall down » ✊
Thank you @COP26_Coalition for hosting five powerful women today.
« Palestinians have no sovereignty over their natural resources, making them more vulnerable to climate change.
(…)
We cannot achieve climate justice under occupation. »

“Israeli apartheid is never green - environmentalism is used to emphasise Israeli supremacy and legitimise ethnic cleansing”
