Israel Attacks NGO's, Schools, Human Rights Offices Throughout W. Bank

09-07-2008 23:56

Israel has always wanted an excuse to attack any institutions whose purpose is to help the Palestinians, or minimize their suffering, since Israel's ruling Extremists WANT the Palestinians to suffer, and abandon their legal and moral rights.

Israel's ruling Extremists have also planned a massive reinvasion of Gaza for over a year, and were on their way to achieving it, aided by the International Community's silence on their deliberately-engineered crisis in Gaza, when certain players demanded a cease-fire to halt Israeli aggression, and the Palestinians' responses.

Now, Israel is desperately attempting to goad the Palestinians into responding to its actions, in a fashion which will be big enough to hold out to the world as "proof" that the Palestinians don't want peace - in order to appear the victim, as it always does when it wants to attack the Palestinians.

It should be noted that several of the organizations affected were instrumental in the recording and reporting of several acts of racism and violence against Palestinian civilians - many of them children - by the IDF, Shin Bet, and Settler-Extremists.

Make your stand against the vivisection industry and animal abusers with us at the Carnival Against Vivisection at Sequani Labs on Saturday September 6th it starts at 12 noon meeting opposite the Ledbury Train Station on the grass verge. This protest is in solidarity with Sean Kirtley who was imprisoned by the state for supposedly organising protests against Sequani. Even though he has never broken the law himself at Sequani (and the police agree) he was sent to prison under new SOCPA legislation which shatters the right to organise and protest in a free democracy.
