An Appeal By Palestinian Women and Mothers
Dear Friends,
The untold stories coming out of Ramallah about atrocities committed in Hospitals (including the women's Hospital where a friend and family member is working there as a doctor); war crimes against innocent young and old men; murders of police and security men AFTER BEING DISARMED; starvation of thousands of children; looting of Palestinian grocery stores by Israeli soldiers (themselves in need of food); shooting on ambulances and preventing them from reaching hospitals (the latter under siege); cutting off electricity, water and phone lines from a large section of the population in Ramallah; taking university students and young men (as young as 16) into undisclosed places; AND many more internationally illegal acts TOTALLY PROHIBITED UNDER ALL INTERNATIONAL LAWS AND IN STARK VIOLATION OF THE IV GENEVA CONVENTION, must be stopped now!
You should call your MPs, the media and all political figures (including our Prime Minister) and demand an immediate halt to the genocide against the Palestinian
children, women and men NOW.
Demand an immediate and unconditional withdrawal of all Israeli tanks and troops from the occupied territories.
Demand the immediate deployment of an International Force of Protection under the UN auspices with Canada leading the way.
Demand an immediate British position of boycotting Israeli goods and severing diplomatic relations with Israel, a`la the position of the Brussels's Parliament until
Israel abides by international laws.
We need to stop Israeli Crimes Against Humanity Now!
We have no time to wait. We must not allow another NAKBA!
Please ACT AND ACT NOW!
Your solidarity with Palestinians now will save more killings, more sufferings and more bloodshed.
If you are concerned about Palestinian and Israeli lives You Must Act Now!.
In solidarity,
Nahla Abdo
We can sit around asking why don't Arab governments do something to help the Palestinian people" for as long as we wish. What are each of us doing to help the
Palestinian people?
Have we called our Governments and demanded that the take action? Have we written phoned or faxed the Israeli Government to demand that they stop these
attack in occupied Palatine.
It is our responsibility, to get our Governments involved.
Perhaps in 20 years time we will all be sitting around watching a movie about the Palestinian Holocaust. Weeping as we eat our popcorn, asking how did it happen.
This is not an ARAB problem, it is a problem deserving the effort of every human being regardless of whether he is Arab or not.
Sharon is a madman. He is going to try and drive the Palestinian people into Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon and Syria to cleanse and prepare for his ideal of greater Israel.
Now is the time to prove our love for democracy and human rights. Let us not say in the future I did nothing to prevent a Palestinian Massacre.
We have a responsibility to support the Palestinian people and act to prevent further violence.
The lives of Israeli citizens and Palestinians are been sacrificed on behalf of the illegal Israeli settlers in occupied Palatine. We have a voice, so we must call out to our
governments and the press. Let us not look back on this time and have to tell our grandchildren that we did nothing while Imperialist, Zionist powers massacred a
Nation and its people.
