On Saturday, Zainab Soleimani, the daughter of the former leader of IRGC al-Quds Force and famed Iranian freedom fighter, martyr Qassem Soleimani, who was assassinated by the US in January 2020, sent out a letter to Aleida Guevara (daughter of Che Guevara), Tushar Gandhi (the great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi), and Zwelivelile Mandla Mandela (the grandson of Nelson Mandela), calling for unity in the fight against the unprecedented acts of violence being perpetrated by "Israel" against Palestinians.

In the letter addressed to these freedom fighters, Soleimani said there have been "no comparable examples of such cruelty" in the history of humanity, amid the bombing of "places of worship, hospitals, schools, parks, and the killing of innocent children, teenagers, and women."

Soleimani further reminded them in the letter of how their forefathers fought against oppression and injustice to rescue "those who were oppressed and vulnerable from the clutches of colonialism, exploitation, tyranny, and racial discrimination," which are all forms of injustice that have converged in the "Zionist regime".

Had "our courageous forefathers" been alive, surely, she reminded them, they would have united against the "inhumane and criminal" Israeli occupation and would have brought together "the people of the world and those with a sense of justice to fight against it."

But in their absence, "it is now our responsibility," she said, to "follow in their footsteps."

"We must keep the spirit of struggle and resistance alive worldwide and become the voice for the oppressed and the children of Palestine."
