Há 1.030 meninos e meninas assassinados na Palestina. A barbárie. A cada 15 minutos uma criança é assassinada na terra onde surgiu uma religião baseada no amor. Na Colômbia, 350 crianças foram mortas em bombardeamentos neste século e 6.402 jovens desarmados foram assassinados em apenas alguns anos.
Muitos dos que hoje se consideram membros daquela religião do amor já não defendem as crianças em perigo, mas sim Herodes libertados.
Fui acusado de ser antissemita e de apoiar o Hamas. Ignorantes. Não posso defender uma organização que apoia a fusão entre Religião e Estado porque lutamos contra isso no nosso próprio país, e porque a visão daqueles que acreditam ser o povo eleito e a raça superior leva ao massacre de outros povos.
Nem eu, nem meus pais e avós biológicos ou ideológicos estivemos com Hitler como se a oligarquia e a imprensa que me ataca o fizessem.
Estão ressuscitando Hitler em tempos de crise climática e ele volta idêntico com seus campos de concentração e a destruição total das cidades. Hitler renasce como uma prática de poder político e econômico sobre a própria divisão da humanidade, sobre as suas fraquezas e medos. O medo de ser diferente é o pai de Hitler.
É o medo de ser diferente que faz o poder político da Europa aplaudir a expulsão dos palestinianos para o sul. Ele se oporia com armas nos dentes se a expulsão fosse para o norte.
A democracia ainda tem sua chance. Essa oportunidade se apega à paz, se apega à vida da humanidade e do planeta.
Aquela vida integral do homem e da natureza que não pode ser defendida senão através da unidade das diferenças. A exigência de diferença mata Hitler.
A democracia global é a voz poderosa do sul que se faz ouvir. Os povos condenados da terra estão ao sul e devem gritar hoje porque na tempestade desencadeada por uma atmosfera danificada pelos gases provenientes do enorme consumo do norte e das suas riquezas, eles podem perecer.
O consumo de riqueza de hoje baseia-se na morte de outros e só cresce se aumentar a indiferença e conseguir acabar com a democracia.
A indiferença é o que permite aplaudir aqueles que ordenaram a morte dos nossos 6.402 jovens inocentes sob as armas do Estado e aqueles que assassinaram 1.030 crianças bombardeadas na Palestina.
Hoje, a Colômbia e o mundo escolhem entre a esperança e a barbárie.

The President of #Colombia announced a severance of relations with #Israel and demanded that the Israeli ambassador leave the country as soon as possible.
“The world history of diplomacy is marked by a new milestone in the senseless arrogance of the Israeli ambassador to Colombia in relation to Gustavo Petro, the president of the republic. What a shame. At a minimum, ask for forgiveness and leave” (c) Colombian Foreign Minister Alvaro Leyva
Earlier, the Israeli Foreign Ministry suspended all transactions with Colombia after the Colombian president compared Israel's actions in #Gaza with the actions of the Nazis in #Auschwitz.
The President of Colombia also stated that his country will not support the Israeli #genocide of the Palestinians and if it is necessary, relations with Israel will be suspended.
Spokesperson of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Lior Haiat on Twitter/X:
— "At the instruction of Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, the Deputy Director General for #LatinAmerica at the Israeli Foreign Ministry, Ambassador Jonathan Peled summoned the Colombian ambassador to Israel, Margarita Manjarrez, for a reprimand conversation, following the hostile and anti-Semitic statements of the president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, against the State of Israel, during the last week.
At the meeting it was made clear to the ambassador that her statements were received in Israel with astonishment in the face of the savage terrorist attack by Hamas terrorists who murdered more than 1,300 Israelis and kidnapped more than 150.
Israel condemns the president's statements that reflect support for the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists, fuel anti-Semitism, affect the representatives of the State of Israel and threaten the peace of the Jewish community in #Colombia."
