They said they will be opening an Association very soon.

Following statement was made on the purpose of the foundation of the Initiative during the press conference organised in Istanbul: "Palestine is not only Palestine85 Palestine is a call; a call to the human, to the humanity85 What brings us together is the power of the hope resisting in Palestine. For us, it is an internationalist duty and pride to give support to the Palestinian national cause. The legitimacy and rightness of this cause is accepted by the labouring humanity. We know and we believe that, there are the warmest feelings in the hearts of our country's peoples, just like the peoples of the world. We know and we believe that, our peoples are cursing the brutality of the Zionist occupiers and the imperialist bandits which take place all around Middle East and the world. Our peoples had shown their protests against the Zionist genocide in Palestine and the occupation brutality in Iraq by going to the streets many times. They did not hesitate to give a helping hand to the Palestinian people. Our peoples showed that they want to take place in the ranks of brotherhood and unity against the imperialists, Zionists and their collaborators. The aim of our initiative is, to develop this will for friendship and solidarity, to generalize this political sensitiveness, and embody it with genuine tools. The Zionist brutality is burning and demolishing Palestine, before the eyes of the whole world. The land of Palestine became a ruin. The Palestinians are imprisoned, wounded or ill. The Palestinians are unemployed, hungry and poor. Zionism wants to make Palestine and the IntA6fada surrender by not only massacres but also by poverty, epidemic diseases and economical blockade. We think that it is important to satisfy these needs even with small-scale supplies. We believe that our peoples will give material support for the satisfaction of the needs of the Palestinian people. We believe that our peoples will take place in such a mobilization of help and solidarity. The history had proven that the real friends of the peoples are only other peoples. We want to prove this fact again between our peoples."

At the conference, where the people have also drawn attentions to the medical difficulties in Palestine, the Israeli Doctors' League was also criticised because of approving torture. They point out that Israel is a regional gendarmerie of imperialism and its oppression and violence against Palestinians is not only taking place in the Palestinian lands but also in every place where Palestinian refugees exist.

The foundation of Solidarity Initiative with the Palestinian People has been saluted by many Palestinian organisations such as the Popular Front For The Liberation of Palestine, The Democratic Front For The Liberation Of Palestine, Palestine Writers' League, Palestinian Journalists and Writers League, Association for the Right of Return of the Palestinians in Exile, Addamir (Conscious) Democratic Mass Organisation-Palestine, League of Healthy Work Committees, Western Sahara Democratic Initiative and Bahrain Human Rights Organisation.

The Initiative, which aims to organise various support campaigns, has also created an internet site under the name of www.filistindayanisma.org. It has been stated that, through the site, they will try to let the sufferings of the Palestinian people to be heard by the people in our geography by publishing different materials like articles, interviews, photos and caricatures on Palestine.

MLCP salutes such a step that will serve to the development of organisation and solidarity between the peoples, and calls for the strengthening of the effort.
