With urgency, the Schiller Institute adds its voice to those of dozens of organizations and thousands of individuals worldwide in support of the demand by Doctors Against Genocide (DAG) that the ongoing genocide being perpetrated in Gaza must stop immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe deliberate bombing of hospitals, the targeting of healthcare workers, and the systematic destruction of medical services must be stopped. Not another child should suffer, starve, be amputated, or lose their life due to this ongoing genocide,\u201d the DAG\u2019s recent urgent appeal states. \u201cWe are sick from genocide,\u201d they state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These doctors and healthcare workers represent the best humanist tradition of the Hippocratic Oath, which by extension prescribes for all<\/em> moral persons who would help heal the human condition that we must \u201cdo no harm or injustice\u201d\u2014but also suggests that we must actively do the Good. While most of the world stands by and watches in horror as another genocide unfolds before our very eyes; while the NATO governments lead us to the very brink of thermonuclear war; those who are standing up and raising their voice against these Nuremburg crimes are keeping the spark of everyone\u2019s humanity alive\u2014and that is a force which, if strengthened and educated, can spread and do incalculable Good in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the founder of the Schiller Institute, on Jan. 3 called for all organizations and individuals to join forces to stop the ongoing genocide, in remarks to the 83rd weekly meeting of the International Peace Coalition, which she initiated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI think that is why we absolutely have to move this, but not stop there: Because think about Sudan, think about Yemen, think about Haiti. There is genocide, and it\u2019s part of this system, which is why we need to have a new security and development architecture which puts a completely new system on the table. I think 2025 is the year when we either will manage to do that, or we will see that the world may be blown up. So, this is a very strong motivation to move with everything we can.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
