Action Alert: Complain to Chelsea & Westminster Hospital for removing the artwork of Palestinian children from Gaza
Monday March 06 2023
Put in a COMPLAINT to Chelsea & Westminster Hospital for removing the innocent artwork of Palestinian children from Gaza following pressure from a pro-Israel lobbying group.
The controversial ‘UK Lawyers for Israel’ put in a complaint to the hospital in early February, claiming that Jewish patients felt ‘vulnerable’ at the sight of the artwork made by Palestinian children. The artwork had been made by children at UN-overseen schools.
As a result of the political pressure, the paintings were removed despite the fact that they only expressed hopes for peace & recognition of a Palestinian state.
This is clearly an UNJUSTIFIABLE use of pressure tactics by an infamous pro-Israel lobbying group with a long record of trying to banish Palestinian voices from the public space.
Palestinian children have the right to be treated EXACTLY the same way as those from any other part of the world.
Complain to Chelsea & Westminster hospital by emailing them directly at [email protected].
