Cycling for Discrimination: Giro d’Italia’s Launch in Jerusalem Whitewashes Israel’s Occupation
The report criticizes the Giro d’Italia's 2018 launch in Jerusalem, highlighting its implicit support for Israel's illegal occupation and annexation of East Jerusalem. It condemns the event for normalizing Israel's actions, which include targeting Palestinian residency rights, altering the city's demographics, and violating international law. The report also connects the event's timing with the ongoing protests in Gaza and Israel’s excessive use of force against Palestinian protesters, marking a broader condemnation of Israel's policies and international complicity in these violations.
