American embassy does not want to receive directly, face-to-face a letter of objection

LETTERS: On Jan 28, we had to channel a letter of protest through the guardhouse window of the US Embassy, delivering a letter of protest to US President Joe Biden through the US ambassador to Malaysia on the issue of Israeli regime's violence that demolished Sheikh Jarrah's houses in Jerusalem.

This time the delegates were not allowed to enter, they were only asked to deliver the letter in the pigeon hole.

I have stated emphatically that the US is a coward because it does not want letters of protest to be received face-to-face.

The US conspired with Israel to demolish Palestinian houses. We expressed that they cannot be enslaved by Israel by legitimising every criminal act of Israeli Zionists and Jews who seized and destroyed thousands of Palestinian homes.

Israel has an expansionist plan to seize all Palestinian land in violation of all international law.

More than 20 Malaysian NGOs have endorsed the letter of protest. We insist that Israel's actions must be opposed without compromise.

Israel intends to clear all Palestinian occupation of Jerusalem. We will mobilise the entire community at the national and international levels so that Israeli terrorism is continuously opposed.
