Hawzah News Agency- According to The Guardian , In an unprecedented move signaling a departure from the longstanding support of the Board of Deputies of British Jews for Zionist regime, 36 signatories to an open letter published in the FT warned: Israel’s existence is being ripped out.

The letter, signed by about one in eight of the board's members, is highly critical of recent actions by the Israeli regime.

Last month, after a pause in fighting during which dozens of Israelis held hostage in Gaza were released, the Israeli regime “chose to break the ceasefire and return to war in Gaza … Since then, no hostages have returned. Hundreds and hundreds more Palestinians have been killed; food, fuel and medical supplies have once again been blocked from entering Gaza; and we are back in a brutal war where the killing of 15 paramedics and their burial in a mass grave is again possible and risks being normal.

“Such incidents are too painful and shocking to take in, but we know in our hearts we cannot turn a blind eye or remain silent at this renewed loss of life and livelihoods, with hopes dwindling for a peaceful reconciliation and the return of the hostages.

This most extremist of Israeli regime is openly encouraging violence against Palestinians in the West Bank, strangling the Palestinian economy and building more new settlements than ever … Israel’s soul is being ripped out.

The letter adds: “Silence is seen as support for policies and actions that run contrary to our Jewish values. Led by the families of the hostages, hundreds of thousands of Israelis are demonstrating on the streets against the return to war by an Israeli regime that has not prioritised the return of the hostages. We stand with them. We stand against the war … It is our duty, as Jews, to speak out.”
