The above video is part of a campaign to pressure the Catalan and Spanish governments to end military and security cooperation with Israel. The website naqba.org explains:
This year, the Palestine solidarity movement in Catalonia, formed by the platform “Amb Palestina al Cor”, “BDS Catalunya”, “Plataforma: Aturem la Guerra”, “Rumb a Gaza” and “Dones en Rebel·lia”, denounce the role that Israel plays in the dessign, research, implementation and global sale of different security and repression systems.
We have proves that Catalonia and Spain are their customers. Specifically, the catalan government has commercial agreements in the security field, most of them, haven’t made them public. Catalonia buys part of the anti-riot equipment from Israel, which are used by mossos d’esquadra, the catalan forces, as the bulletproof vests.
The close relationship from our government and Israel make us complicit of the systematic violation of the Human Rights in the Occupied Territories in Palestine. Therefore, we demand the interruption of any commercial and / or academic relation.
The palestinian population is not alone. We don’t forget them. One more time, we show our solidarity. more
