Vigils, sit-ins, red lines. People have repeatedly and collectively expressed their concern for the fate of Palestinians in Gaza. But even though the government seems to be sensing some urgency thanks to the swelling protest, it’s still failing to take concrete and effective measures to stop the genocidal violence against Palestinians. The Netherlands can and must do more: the Dutch state is legally obligated to prevent genocide. By continuing to stall and delay this government is making us all complicit.
And we will not be complicit.

On Monday, September 1st, we will let this message resound throughout the Netherlands via the following action:
Shortly before noon, temporarily lay down your work - whether you’re employed or not, whether you’re a student, a freelancer, or retired. Do this together with others: colleagues, friends or neighbours.
When the air raid alert sounds at 12:00, step outside your office, classroom, or home. Once the siren falls silent, use pots, pans, or claxons to sound the alarm for Gaza - and extend the alert to at least 5 minutes.
Wear red on this day, so like-minded people can recognise you.
Take images of the action, and share them on social media under the hashtag #wijwerkenhiernietaanmee.
Are you unable to join this action but do you support our message? Then post the hourglass graphic on social media at noon, out of solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza. Again under the hashtag: #wijwerkenhiernietaanmee.

Our demands to the government are clear:
Stop the arms trading (direct or indirect) with Israel.
Cancel the trade agreement with Israel.
Stop the import of products from illegal settlements.
Stop the control over the distribution of UN aid to Palestinians by the Israeli-controlled Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
Recognize Palestine as a state.
Do you want our government to take serious action to stop the genocide in Gaza? Then join us in calling on everyone to wear red on the 1st of September, and to make clear that business-as-usual is not an option: we will not be complicit.
