The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) is an activist organisation in England and Wales that promotes solidarity with the Palestinian people. PSC was founded in 1982 during the build-up to Lebanon war, and was incorporated in the UK in 2004 as Palestine Solidarity Campaign Ltd.[1]
The PSC campaigns for peace and justice for Palestinians, in support of international law and human rights. PSC states that it is "opposed to all forms of racism, including anti-Jewish prejudice and Islamophobia".[2] It has stated that it opposes both "Israel’s occupation and its aggression against neighbouring states"[3] Whilst recognising differences between apartheid-era South Africa and Israel, PSC promotes the boycotting of Israeli goods as a method that it believes was previously successful in achieving political change.[4]
PSC's stated goals include the right of return for Palestinians and Israeli withdrawal from the occupied territories.[5] The PSC has criticised Israel's practices when arresting children.[6]
Activities organised by and statements from the PSC are reported on outlets such as the website The Electronic Intifada.[7]
