Nilin youth dies following shooting by Israeli army in Gaza solidarity demo

01-01-2009 20:08

Dear members,

I'm writing you this message with the very sad news that tonight also Mohammad Khawajah (20 yrs old) died in Ramallah Hospital as a direct result of his severe injury.

Mohammad and Arafat were both shot (with live ammunition) by Israeli soldiers last sunday during a demonstration in solidarity with Gaza in Ni'lin. Arafat was shot in his heart (through his back) and died shortly after. Mohammad was shot in the back of his head and was brought to Ramallah Hospital. His injury was too severe to treat and this resulted in his death tonight.

Mohammad's funeral will be in Ni'lin tomorrow.

For more information, you can contact (tomorrow):
Hindi Mesleh: 0599 83 9843
Ahmad Mesleh: 0599 858 739

with respect,

From Dachau to Gaza

01-01-2009 09:34

Today, the United States and Israel are striving to consummate a Middle East version of the Munich Pact that will sell out of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and a real independent state of their own. Only history will tell if the consequences shall be as tragic for the fate of the Arab and Jewish peoples in the Middle East , if not the rest of the world. I fear that there is a high probability that history will repeat itself.

Israel’s Lie Machine is Working Flat Out

31-12-2008 23:19

While the murderous assault on Gaza continues, I notice there's a briefing document on the website of the Israeli Embassy in London which has a lie in every line. The West's mainstream media repeat them, and even the most senior TV and radio interviewers don’t bother to challenge them.

Lemma, Haya and Iman

31-12-2008 19:21

It happened at 9am this morning. We were speaking to Sabrine Naim at the time, standing and talking in the Naim family home which had been wrecked this morning. Chunks of debris – one a meter long and a foot wide - glass, and sharp slices of their own broken roof, had smashed onto beds, chairs, their kitchen and living room. Only two of their family of 12 had been home at the time. They were expecting an attack. And it came at 4am – a missile strike by an F16 on the local police station and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine offices. Smouldering rubble and rocks and dust were strewn across the heart of Beit Hanoon – the market, taxi rank and main streat littered with debris.

If The Economy Doesn't Shrink, We're Finished!

31-12-2008 18:22

The graph that says so much
Credit crunch; economic crisis; financial meltdown…2008 became the year of monetary superlatives – and for good reason because, as far as most objective economic observers can tell, this is one event that is going to stretch well into the future, leaving no national or regional economy untouched.
