In this regard, Al Adl Wal Ihssane’s youth general secretary Abou Bakr Lounghari declared, “This campaign is a rejection of normalization with the Israeli occupation, which is nothing but a colonial institution of violence. The campaign is a message to the state that the Moroccan people do not agree with the decision.

And it is “a message to the anti-Palestinians, to tell them that we are with them in their wars and in their struggle for independence, and to the illegal occupation of the colonial institution.”

“The campaign has begun on social media, which is a continuation of other activities on the ground, following the attempts to deny this action and confuse the Moroccan conscience against the Palestinian cause,” the speaker revealed.
