Around the Campaigns Friday 6th June 2008

06-06-2008 13:45

"As it stands Amdani is now due to be deported on Tuesday evening 10th June. Liam Byrne called Amdani's MP Alan Simpson in for a meeting. Simpson reported that Byrne is going to look into the case again. In the meantime there was one of the biggest demonstrations Nottingham has seen in recent years in the town centre on Saturday 31st May. Around 300 people gathered to make known our message that Amdani must stay. Even though the Simpson/Byrne meeting gives a ray of hope we are still calling on people to contact the Home Office etc. For frequent updates, model letters etc.

Israeli Soldiers Who Tortured Palestinian Teens Receive Light Sentence, No Demot

05-06-2008 15:30

The IDF court obviously couldn't bring itself to mete out a harsher sentence, because this is what their soldiers do all the time when it comes to Palestinians- and worse.

What happened is that this case became public knowledge, so they had to do at least a little something to these men.

Barack Obama’s Pernicious Refusal to Defend the Causes of Black/Brown People

05-06-2008 07:37

Obama's "fierce" critiques of Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Father Michael Pfleger puts him in opposition to the sentiments of "millions of black people" and puts him in the camp of those "who view the majority of black pain as illegitimate." By pursuing an agenda that refuses to recognize "black" or "white" issues, Obama is playing with a 400-year-old fire.

Italy’s leap into the dark: Smells, signals and symptoms of fascism

05-06-2008 06:33

Corporatism implies the merging of state and business leadership, together with belligerent nationalism and militarism, in effect a dictatorship of the extreme right. In practice corporatism and fascism are one and the same. As in Cold War years, so in the Berlusconi era, the fear of leftist communists and the desire of many Italians to be a normal nation has led to today’s unconscious toleration of the rise of a nascent form of authoritarian government with many characteristics of fascism.

Another TCAR member snatched, protest this Friday and fax request

04-06-2008 23:00

This is the third asylum seeker we know of being detained in Newcastle in the last few weeks, all scheduled for flights with Ethiopian Airways. If you are at risk of deportation or know anyone who is, please spread the word to be alert, especially if Ethiopian Airways flies to your country. If you have somewhere else you can stay temporarily it may be a good idea to not sleep at your usual address.

When Will Israel Pretend It Wants Peace?

04-06-2008 17:41

Never, because so long as the media and governments throughout the world are willing to accept this facade and take no action to stop Zionism's war, they will continue to use it to hide their aggression and racism from the world's apathetic, un(mis)informed majority.

As Predicted: Israel Delays Vote on Gaza Cease-Fire

02-06-2008 18:35

This delay has nothing to do with the "...the "vagueness" of Hamas' position", and everything to do with the fact that Olmert is fighting for his political life, in view of the corruption scandal which has emerged around him recently, and the Extremists demanding his head - because he 'dared' to speak to Palestinians (even though the process was designed to fail) - reject any peace or coexistence with the Palestinians.

Even though he is going to Washington this week, he may well be on his way to be a proverbial lame duck, in light of potential new elections in Israel.

Israel also knows that - as its own defence staff warned - its illegal Collective Punishment provoked the rockets it used to 'justify' military strikes on Gaza which were planned for over a year, and if these criminal policies are ended, so will the rockets, and this will prove Israel was lying all along, aided by a willing media.

Israeli Extremists Approve Even MORE Illegal Settlement Spaces

Starting to get it?

These Extremists reject any 'peace' which would require them to accept their legal and moral obligations, and will continue their war to wipe Palestine off the map (which will perpetuate the threat and misery experienced by all Israelis) until they succeed, or until someone stands up to stop them.
