Today is #NakbaDay. 75 years ago a catastrophe was visited on the Palestinian people - the violent beginnings of Israel's occupation. It continues today.
@vonderleyen recently described these events as a "dream." That is unacceptable, and must be condemned. #VonDerLies #Nakba

A "tragedy" is a terrible event nobody is really responsible for. It is totally unacceptable for a German politician to use the @EU_Commission to minimise the historic crimes of the Nazi regime as a mere "tragedy," and in the same breath as she downplays the #Nakba. #vonderLies

The calculated insensitivity to Palestinian experience in @vonderleyen's statement implies that the EU does not care about Palestinians.
She does not represent us. Many many people in the EU stand in solidarity with Palestinians & condemn Israel's #apartheid regime. #vonderLies

Israel is not a democracy. Freedom to #Palestine. End apartheid. #vonderLies

It's beyond disgraceful for an @EU_Commission President to allow the propaganda lie "Israel made the desert bloom" to come out of her mouth, denying the prior existence of Palestinians in their homeland. We must oppose apologism for the occupation in #EU institutions. #vonderLies
