On Sunday, dozens of citizens gathered in a vigil in front of the headquarters of the municipality of Settat, supported by the branch of the capital of Chaouia of the Moroccan Front for Supporting Palestine and Against Normalization, to demand an end to normalization and its criminalization by all Arab governments, under the slogan “The Nakba continues.. The resistance continues in memory that refuses to be forgotten and crimes without punishment”.
The participants in the vigil chanted slogans emphasizing the continuation of the struggle until the liberation of Palestine and the overthrow of normalization, and taking responsibility for Arab governments, such as: “Palestine is a trust..normalization is treason,” “a popular salute to the proud Gaza,” and “Morocco and Palestine…one people, nothing.” Two,” and “The people want to drop normalization.”
Hassan al-Idrisi, coordinator of the Moroccan Front for the Defense of Palestine and Anti-Normalization in the Settat region, said in a statement to Hespress that “the stand comes within the framework of commemorating the Nakba, which falls on May 15 of each year,” explaining that “this memory was the main reason for what is happening today in Palestine. Because it is linked to the displacement of the Palestinians at the time, the consequences of which are still continuing with killing and the permissibility of Palestinian blood.”
He added that the vigil “emphasizes condemnation and denunciation of the massacres that the Palestinian people knew,” offering his condolences to the martyrs in Palestine as a result of “the crimes of the Zionist entity against Palestinian families.” He pointed out that “the Moroccan people have always been in solidarity with the Palestinian people within the framework of humanity, considering that the Palestinian cause is a just humanitarian cause,” and invoked the slogan of the stand, which is “No to normalization.”
At the end of his statement, the regional coordinator of the Moroccan Front for the Defense of Palestine and Against Normalization, Settat, asked about “the rapid and standard way in which normalization proceeds in all fields,” stressing that “the Moroccan popular demand is to criminalize normalization and stop it in all fields.”
