A special Media program for this Always Debout event on October 7, 2024, presented by Nadiya Lazzouni, accompanied by Amina Kalache.
It was October 7, 2023. Several Palestinian organizations, mainly Hamas, launched a deadly attack on Israeli soil. An attack which left 1,200 dead and led to just over 200 hostage-takings. This tragic event was the trigger for a terrible and indiscriminate war by the Israeli army against the Palestinian people, in the name of the fight against terrorism. The toll is heavy: more than 40,000 deaths, including 14 to 17,000 children, the relentless destruction of buildings, 80% of the population displaced, 60% of buildings destroyed. The International Court of Justice speaks of the risk of genocide, and many observers say that the genocide of the Palestinian people is already here.
This Monday, October 7, at 6:30 p.m., we are organizing an evening dedicated to 366 terrible days. To this bloody butchery perpetrated in the name of the fight against terrorism. At the Media, we have tried to offer you the most faithful media coverage of this war which today extends to Lebanon and Iran through broadcasts, reports and investigations provided. How was Gaza crushed amid international indifference? How did October 7 change and divide the world, but also France? Today’s evening is organized around three stages:
- First, we will focus on the reality of the ongoing war and carnage. On the reaction of Israeli society to the shock it suffered, on the endless martyrdom of the Palestinians, of Gaza but also of the West Bank. With Yoav Shemer Kunzassociate professor-researcher at the University of Strasbourg, and Israeli citizen involved in the “European Jews for Palestine” coordination, Xavier Guignardresearcher specializing in Palestine at the Noria Reseach center, Pascal Andréhumanitarian doctor member of the NGO Palmed, Nesreen MrouehLebanese-Canadian chef
- We will also discuss the political, legal, judicial and media battle around the word “genocide” applied to what is happening today in the Gaza Strip, with our regular columnist Paul Elek, lawyer Gilles Devers et Michèle Sibonymember of the French Jewish Union for Peace.
- How Gaza divided France and tore the world apart… We will talk in particular about the repression that pro-Palestinian activists suffered with Julien Théryhistorian, as well as with the researcher Adlene Mohammedi.
