**Vigil Today 6pm** for Palestinian killed in Bilin

aaa | 18.04.2009 11:56 | Palestine | Birmingham

Bassem Abu Rahma, who was part of the nonviolent protest at Bilin in the West Bank against the israeli apartheid Wall and racist settlements, was killed by the cowardly Israeli army yesterday.


Bassem, 29, was shot in the abdomen at short range with a new kind of high velocity tear gas canister, the same which critically wounded American solidarity worker Tristan Anderson in the head earlier this year. Bassem is the18th person killed by Israel at the peaceful demonstrations against the Wall.

Come join the solidarity vigil tonight 6pm outside the Israeli embassy in Kensington, and organise other vigils locally.
