Israel’s latest massacre upon Gaza cemented a worldwide outcry of protests in solidarity with the people of GAZA and Palestine. Much of the state controlled media failed to provide reasonable coverage of events and went further by way of propagating Israeli apologist propaganda. Established global networks between Palestinians and solidarity campaigners ensured that active news was shared.

PALESTINIAN AS ONE is a short film inspired by the resilience and courage of Palestinians and images of global solidarity protests taking place in November 2012. The film evidences the unity of humanity on the issue of Palestine and features a song, ‘Palestinian As One’ by Jeremy Karodia and Ravi Naidoo. The words are set out below and the song is available for free download by THE MAVRIX from the album, 'PURA VIDA’ which is in support of Palestine and its people's struggle for freedom.  http://soundcloud.com/the-mavrix/palestinian-as-one-the-mavrix

‘Palestinian As One

stand down soldier your time is up
the will for our freedom is mightier than your gun
we will rise from the ashes with the wretched of the earth
we will stake our claim and stand our ground Palestinian as one
there’s a howling in the wind there’s a whisper in the trees
when a baby dies and a mother cries we’ll stand as one
we will die on our feet than live on our knees
standing proud shout out loud Palestinian for life

CHORUS

ooooh so much history in the land of the olive tree
ooooh such an irony war in the name of peace
oooh i'm a refugee the right to return is a guarantee
ooooh it’s our destiny we will set me free
step aside convict the day has come
as sure as the sun comes out victory is ours
there’s a rumble in the ground the wall must come down
you can take our land you can take our food Palestinian as one

there’s a howling in the wind there’s a whisper in the trees
when a baby dies and a mother cries we’ll stand as one
we will die on our feet than live on our knees
standing proud shout out loud Palestinian for life

CHORUS
BRIDGE

been a long time coming on a long and winding road
there’s a flicker just ahead that feeds this hungry soul
freedom is close freedom in near
we rise to the challenge without any fear
bow down soldier your time is gone
the night is darkest just before the dawn
resistance in our veins freedom in our hearts
cast in stone etched in our bones freedom for life’

Assalamu’alaikum, Peace be upon you

Other films

Are other films going to be made perhaps covering the uprisingings in Iran or the people's resistence in Bharain ? Maybe there will be extensive coverage of the revolution in Syria ?

No of course there will not be because this is Indymedia uk where as usual the focus is Israel and Palestine. The daily obsession with Jews by some posters here tells new people exactly what they need to know about Indymedia uk and is one of the reasons for its decline.

Good morning

What a load of un-informed tripe. Perhaps you aught to include images of the Israeli victims of Hamas bombings too? Oh wait, that's not savvy is it?

The farce at the UN

28.11.2012 18:57

Most of you will be aware that the Palestinian people are about to be given an upgraded status at the UN. They are to be upgraded from third-rate citizens to second-rate, in a program that has been carefully planned and executed by Tony Blair and his team. Meanwhile, the zionist mainstream media is telling its idiot audience that this move is opposed by the US and Israel- a complete falsehood. Yes, these two states will vote against Palestine in the UN, but only to create the illusion that the 'victorious' Palestinians are actually going to win something.

The Palestinian people have been constantly controlled, and gradually dis-empowered by the same tactic. Namely, key powerful and profoundly corrupt Palestinian families are given massive financial incentives to sell Palestinians down the river. The UN is the ultimate pigs' trough or gravy train.

Meanwhile, we get to see the true face of the game. The Liberals that run the UK (if you think the Conservatives have the whip hand, you really are an idiot) have stated that their main concern is that the ICC never gets to rule on Israel's continuous and sickening Crimes Against Humanity. Only yesterday, an Israeli terrorist spokeswoman boasted that the women and children butchered by Israeli bombs in Gaza were actually deliberately targeted.

However, within a short time, the ICC will claim jurisdiction over Palestine. Don't cheer just yet. This will be accompanied by a clear statement that zionist terrorists will ALWAYS be excluded from prosecution, just as the Liberal and Labour party modified the law in the UK recently to prohibit the arrest and prosecution of war criminals, if those criminals were Israeli.

The law is only the law if people are prosecuted regardless of who they are. However, when people are zionists, or express loyalty to Israel, the rules of 'justice' always seem to change.

Given the recent child-abuse scandals, consider the story of Roman Polanski. This famous director regularly drugged and raped would-be child stars at at series of parties held by his powerful Hollywood friends. When he was caught (he 'proudly' admitted the offenses) he legged it to France, where there is no extradition treaty with the USA. He continued his directing career, and continued boasting about having sex with children.

Recently, this depravity filmed another version of 'Oliver Twist'. Despite being the worst kind of sex offender imaginable, the British government gave full permission for young British children to be shipped over to Polanski to 'appear' in his movie.

Polanski is a zionist, and his friends and supporters include the most important zionists in Hollywood, chief amongst them being Steven Spielberg. It was Spielberg who advised Polanski to make a 'holocaust' move ('The Pianist'- a type of movie Polanski had never shown any interest in making previously). The sole reason for this advice was to allow Spielberg to run a campaign allowing Polanski to safely return to the USA without fear of arrest. At the Oscar ceremony that awarded the film many major Oscars, half the audience present stood up and howled their support for Polanski. Every one of them was fully aware of Polanski's crimes.

Thankfully, even in Hollywood, there are people who would do everything possible to bring a monster like Polanski to justice, so Spielberg's plan ultimately failed, and Polanski will never willing set foot in the USA.

My point is this. For a child raping monster like Polanski, being a powerful zionist is a permanent 'get out of jail free' card. Likewise, the Palestinians will never get justice in the ICC when the criminals they are attempting to prosecute are zionists.

Meanwhile, the depraved zionists get to 'label' anyone they wish to exterminate, in the same way nazis 'labeled' prisoners in the concentration camps with yellow stars and the like. So Hamas is labeled 'terrorist' allowing anyone who works for the government in Gaza in any capacity, and every member of their family, to be murdered by the Israeli government. Of course, the various terror groups that make up the Israeli government and their supporters never have to fear being officially labeled 'terrorist' by the USA or EU, due to the massive zionist power base that controls the USA and EU.

The creation of the state of Israel co-incided with the creation of a plan for the 'Final Solution' of all Palestinian people in the region by the rulers of Israel. Israel's 'Final Solution' means what it says. If Palestinians ever look likely to regain control of their homes and lands, Israel will genocide millions of them, and use their zionist power bases in the EU and USA to protect themselves from punishment.

Do any of you here think for one second that Israel's elites fear any retribution if they detonate small nuclear bombs in each of the main Palestinian population centres? Sure, the usual activists would go crazy on the street of Europe (with many of them receiving lengthy prison sentences as a result). However, the BBC, ITN, and all the newspapers would say the Palestinians were to blame, and the zionist politicians that run every major European and American political party would simply appoint a fellow zionist to write a report on the genocide, equating the murder of millions of Palestinians with the death of a handful of Israelis.

Lets be clear.

Seems on the face of it a scowling critique of Israel but its more the usual slippery propaganda hit piece we have come to expect.

Every media outlet on the web is showing this sort of content at the moment. Especially engineered "articles" and public comments written to indirectly grease certain views and ideas into the public mind, all written within the context of the "house style" so it fits in.

Lift up the petticoat of this effort at freedom of speech and you find the slippery green forked tongue of Israel slipping carefully into place notions of apparent Israeli strength.

Lets be clear.

Israel is not a nuclear armed state. Israel cannot control the PLO from within the United Nations and the Israel/United States "relationship" has never been weaker.

Trying to infer that Israel has the power to do the things you are complaining about amounts to brazen disinformation.

Up with this, we will not put.

freedom of what?

sorry what, I would ask that before you start on the "freedom of speach" bit please look at the HIDDEN (censored) entries in this very item.

The utterly corrupt and complicit nature of the censorship shows that this matter is being skewed to give only one view and thus is both propoganda and rotten to the core.

I want truth, both sides not the biased tripe of the PLO approved media outlet that this news wire has turned into.
