“We condemn criminal genocidal policy and the warlike actions of the Government of Israel against the Palestinian people, treacherously murdering civilians including women and children…..we demand the suspension of the bombing, occupation and the blockade of the Palestinian territory!  Moreover, we call on the governments of MERCOSUR to adopt the measure of immediate suspension of the Free Trade Agreement with the State of Israel.”-MERCOSUR/MERCOSUL 29 July 2014

At this point almost half a dozen Central and South American countries have recalled their ambassadors from Israel, to protest the war on Gaza Strip: El Salvador, Ecuador, Chile, Peru and economic powerhouse Brazil.

To show you how arrogant the Israelis are, Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor called Brazil a “diplomatic dwarf” adding that by recalling their ambassador Brazil is now “irrelevant”!

Argentina openly condemned Israel at the recent UN Security Council meeting.

Bolivia’s President Evo Morales is demanding sanctions against Israel.

MERCOSUR/MERCOSUL (Southern Common Market) held a meeting on 29 July 2014, and Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and Venezuela condemned the “disproportionate use of force” by Israel against civilians.

The Caribbean country Cuba ended ties with Israel in 1973.
