Anti-genocide activist Strecker asks for ‘quiet show of support’ at ‘terror’ trial next week

Jersey-based anti-genocide activist Natalie Strecker has asked for those who wish to attend her trial in Jersey next week for supposed ‘terrorism’ over posts supporting international law.

Strecker was arrested a year ago, and charged in January, apparently for expressing support for the right of Palestinians to resist occupation. The right to resist “by all available means” is recognised and unequivocally guaranteed under international law, but the Starmer regime has treated it as an expression of support for a ‘proscribed’ terrorist group, which Strecker is adamant that she has never done.

Natalie Strecker asks for moral support

Starmer is waging a ‘lawfare’ war of state terrorism against journalists and activists who expose and oppose Israel’s genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in Gaza, primarily using the Terrorism Act in an attempt to criminalise humanitarians opposing Israel’s mass murder of Palestinians civilians. Strecker has published a video message in which she asks supporters not to protest outside the court when her trial begins on Thursday 27 November, but instead for those able to get to the court to stand outside in a “quiet show of support:

Solidarity with Natalie Strecker and the dozens of activists being persecuted by the Starmer police state – to protect Israel and its interests – who face potential sentences of up to fourteen years in prison for being human beings and, in some cases, have already been held as political prisoners for more than a year awaiting trial.
