Cathays Park (opposite City Hall/National Museum)
Cardiff
Last week, Bush and Blair prevented world leaders from calling for a ceasefire in the Middle East, instead they have allowed Israel to inflict collective punishment on the people of Gaza & Lebanon and commit crimes against humanity.
In Lebanon, a whole country torn to shreds:
* More than 300 civilians killed
* 500,000 people have fled their homes
* All major roads, 55 bridges and 7 airports destroyed, no supplies reaching many areas
* Hospitals, apartment buildings, churches, mosques, factories, petrol stations bombed,
* Lebanon's largest dairy farm, pharmaceutical factories, food supply depots destoryed
* Desperate need for water, medicines and sanitation for those fleeing Israel's bombardment.

Israel says that all this is justified because 2 Israeli soldiers have been taken prisoner, willfully forgeting that over 9,000 Palestinians & Lebanese are held captive in Israeli prisons, many without any criminal charges being made.
