Tarique Rahman calls for immediate ceasefire, humanitarian aid into Gaza
  Bangla Press Desk:   Tarique Rahman, acting chairman of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), called on the international community to use all economic, political and diplomatic avenues to ensure there is an immediate and lasting ceasefire and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. In a post on his verified Facebook page early Wednesday, Tarique wrote, “Genocide is defined in the 1948 convention, as the 'intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group'.” Citing a new UN commission report concluding that Israel is responsible for this crime against Palestinians in Gaza, he said, “No more excuses or hiding behind propaganda can continue.” The world must now take immediate action to take genuine steps enshrined in international law and human morality against Israel's genocide. I call on the international community to use all economic, political and diplomatic avenues to ensure there is an immediate and lasting ceasefire and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
History teaches us many lessons about acting morally and bravely, even when it may not be the easiest path. We cannot stand by when the very existence of Palestinians is at risk. States have the tools to make a difference. They always do. I hope that Bangladeshis around the world, whether in Bangladesh or abroad, use their collective voices to speak up, take action and ensure their leaders stand with Palestine in the face of brutal destruction by Israel.  This article was originally published on Daily Sun.
