In about 500 they challenged the Plumbeo sky and the clouds full of rain this morning in Pontasserchio, the Municipality of San Giuliano Terme, in the Pisan, to participate in the funeral of Marah Abu Zhuri, the twenty year old from Palestinian Denutrita who died in recent days at the hospital of Pisa two days after arriving from Gaza in a condition, they ruled the doctors, of “serious organic deterioration”.
And without any symptom of leukemia, as instead leded by Israel. “My daughter and her death – the girl’s mother synthesized with simple and direct words – represent the symbol of the suffering of Palestine and all the Palestinians. She will now stay here, I will return to my land, to Gazà. Concepts also resounded in the intervention of the spokesman for the Palestinian ambassador to Italy, Mona Abusmara, during the farewell ceremony open with the Islamic prayer led by the IMAM of Pisa, Mohammad Khalil.
Marah’s death underlined is proof that “Israel uses the hunger for the civilian population as a weapon of war”. And for this reason “Marah represents all the Palestinians who are suffering, also of silence and indifference in the face of the genocide of many greats in the world: a genocide that has been going on for two years live in all TVs on the planet”.
The words of the IMAM of Florence Izzedin Elzir, who is also president of Ucoii, are also hard: «We are not anti -Semites. We are against the illegal occupation of Gaza by the Government of Israel and we ask that weapons are no longer provided to Tel Aviv. International law is asserted and Israel stops, because he cannot do what he wants and where he wants ». The funeral ceremony was desired by the mayor of San Giuliano Matteo Cecchelli, who offered a place in one of the cemeteries of the country to rest the remains of the girl forever.
“Marah’s death is not an exception – he said – as he tried to make believe by attacking our good doctors. His death is the consequence of the genocide of the Palestinian people carried out by the Israeli government. In Gaza you die every day in the deafening silence of the world government. We decided to make noise in the face of a humanitarian and political catastrophe of this reach ». Even the governor of Tuscany, Eugenio Giani, who during his intervention was contested by a drape of Pro Pal, recalled “that Tuscany recognizes the state of Palestine: I hope our government does the same, as France and England are doing”. “I am here – he added – also to defend our excellent doctors who ended up in the sights of a reckless attack by the Israeli health authorities. Our doctors have done everything possible for Marah, as they are doing it for the three children hospitalized in the Meyer in Florence and for the others who are at the Pisa hospital and the Tuscany region is doing everything possible and necessary for the Palestinian people, after the serious events of Gaza, where the Netanyahu government is militarily occupying that territory and making war crimes “.
