Int'l Gathering of Women in Tehran Urges Comprehensive Boycott of Israeli Regime
The gathering was held at the Parsian Azadi Hotel Monday evening on the sidelines of the 39th International Islamic Unity Conference.
The participants issued a statement at the end of the meeting, which is as follows:
“In the name of the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
It has now been nearly two years since the Zionist regime (started its) brutal aggression against parts of Islamic lands, and with shameless audacity and brutal behavior, it is increasing the depth and scope of its crimes day by day.
Last year, when a group of us women from Islamic countries gathered together in such a meeting, the scope of the Zionist regime’s aggression had not gone much beyond Gaza.
But the Zionists, observing the passive behavior of important parts of the Islamic world and seeing the oppressed people of Gaza being left alone, have found the audacity to expand their brutal aggression to other parts of Islamic lands, such as the West Bank in Palestine, Lebanon, Sanaa in Yemen, and even Tehran and some other cities in Islamic Iran.
Yes, they attack the same countries, nations, and forces that have decided in this world to stand on the right side of history and side with the oppressed, as they learned from the brother and successor to the Prophet - Imam Ali (AS), who said: “Be an enemy to the oppressor and a help to the oppressed”.
In the meantime, it is necessary to mention the resistance of Iranian women in the imposed 12-day war (Israeli war imposed on Iran in June), who truly demonstrated another manifestation of self-sacrifice and dedication with their patience and perseverance in the face of all kinds of calamities and losses caused by the brutal invasion of the Zionist regime.
In conclusion, we, a group of women from Muslim countries, declare in the absence of effective Islamic governments in supporting the oppressed people of Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen;
1- Silence in the face of oppressors will not bring you security, but can only reduce you to more obedient servants of their illegitimate interests.
2- The fate of the oppressed people of Gaza is not separate from the fate of other Islamic nations in this region, and in the event of silence and inaction, what is happening to the Palestinians will sooner or later affect all Muslim nations.
3- Providing safe water and food to the people of Gaza, especially children and women, should be the main demand of Muslim nations and should be a priority for all Islamic governments.

4- A comprehensive boycott of the usurping Zionist regime must also be placed on the agenda of all Islamic governments, and any type of economic activity, commercial relations, etc. must be absolutely prohibited.
5- We also express our gratitude and appreciation to all members of Muslim and non-Muslim nations, especially civil society activists, journalists, and women’s rights activists around the world, who responsibly stood by the oppressed people of Gaza and, by organizing thousands of marches, brought the voice of the Palestinian people's grievances to the attention of the world.
