Over one million people sign “Palestine Charter” against normalization

More than 1000,000 people, including pro-Palestine activists, media figures and academics, have signed — within less than 20 hours — the "Palestine Charter,” a document rejecting Arab states' normalization of relations with the Israeli occupation state.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): More than 1000,000 people, including pro-Palestine activists, media figures and academics, have signed — within less than 20 hours — the "Palestine Charter,” a document rejecting Arab states' normalization of relations with the Israeli occupation state.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Bahrain's foreign ministers signed on Tuesday a normalization agreement with Israel at the White House on Tuesday, establishing full ties in violation of the Arab Peace Initiative.

The text of the charter — published on “charterofpalestine.com/campaign” — states: "Believing in the justice of the Palestinian cause and following my responsibility towards it, I am honored to sign the Palestine Charter, under which I affirm that Palestine is an occupied Arab state and its liberation is a duty.”

"The Zionist entity is an occupying and racist entity and a usurper of our Aqsa Mosque and the land of Palestine, and all forms of normalization is a betrayal,” the text reads further.

The charter has been endorsed by many pro-Palestine organizations, including the BDS movement, the Gulf Coalition Against Normalization and the Emirati League Against Normalization.

The hashtag #Palestine_Charter in Arabic is also circulating on Twitter, condemning the US-brokered normalization deals.
