Agnes Callamard (secretary general of Amnesty International)

Democracy Now, June 21, 2024, interview ([link removed]) with Kavitha Chekuru, a journalist and the director of The Night Won’t End, and Sharif Abdel Kouddous, the correspondent on the film.

Democracy Now writes: “The film follows three Palestinian families as they recount the horrific experiences they have endured under relentless Israeli assault, including the family of 6-year-old Hind Rajab, the young Palestinian girl who made headlines when it emerged in January that she had been trapped in a car with family members killed by Israeli ground troops, and the Salem family, who first lost dozens of family members in an Israeli airstrike and then additional family members who were executed by Israeli soldiers.”

Invisibilization & normalization of genocide as foreign policy, from Guatemala to Palestine

Rights Action recalls the US and Western-backed (including Israel) genocides and scorched earth massacres in Guatemala, late 1970s, early 1980s. As the US-led West provided next to unconditional support for the atrocities, the western media, for the most part, invisibilized the vast majority of the death and destruction.

These are our issues

In our funding and activism work related to systemic human rights violations, repression and violence, corruption and impunity in Honduras and Guatemala (primarily), Rights Action always tries to document and denounce how the US and Canadian governments and militaries, our companies and banks, and entities like the World Bank and InterAmerican Development Bank, oftentimes enable, cause and benefit from the human rights violations, repression and violence, corruption and impunity in both countries.

We understand things no differently in the case of US and Canada’s military, economic and political support for and legitimization of what Israel is doing in Palestine since October 7, 2023, and what it has been doing for decades, going back to Nakba in 1948.

Rights Action supports calls for
* Immediate and permanent ceasefire.
* Immediate delivery of massive amounts of comprehensive humanitarian relief, and reconstruction and rebuilding support.
* Release of all political prisoners and illegally detained people.
* And then support, for as long as it takes, a comprehensive negotiation process that deals with the extreme death, suffering and destruction happening right now (beginning on October 7), and that addresses the historic root causes, going back to 1948, including the establishment of the Israeli Apartheid system, the violent, illegal occupation and on-going illegal settler expansionism.

Accountability for Western complicity

Rights Action supports activism and work to hold the US, Canada, EU and Australia legally and politically accountable for supporting and legitimizing Israel’s systematic crimes against humanity and war crimes against Palestine and the Palestinian people.

Need to diversify media sources

Rights Action urges everyone to diversify their news sources. As a necessary antidote to the oftentimes harmful, misleading reporting coming from much of the mainstream government and corporate media in the US, EU, and Canada, we suggest the daily news coverage provided by Al Jazeera news ([link removed]; @AJEnglish) and Democracy Now (www.democracynow.org; @democracynow).
