Re: The horror in gaza!!! This is why they won’t let the cameras in (warning shocking
Over the past 24 hours, Israel has intensified its massacre of the people of Gaza. The attacks continue from the air, navy and ground assaults.
Friends of Al-Aqsa calls upon everyone to intensify protests against this barbarity.
While the Israeli war machine is murdering Palestinians; governments around the world are still failing to condemn Israel and assert international pressure on the aggressive state to stop this war. The media is allowing Israeli narratives to go unchallenged and the Israeli economy is being boosted while Gaza lies in ruins.
TAKE ACTION today and every day until these attacks stop.
1] Politicians
Write to the Prime Minister; Foreign Minister and your local MP demanding they call upon Israel to immediately withdraw from Gaza and stop the bombing. An example letter can be found at the bottom of this message.

Right Hon David Miliband MP

2] Media
Write to the Media and request balanced reporting of this conflict and a challenge to the Israeli government for not allowing foreign journalists into Gaza to report on the humanitarian situation on the ground:
3] Boycott It is now more important than ever to boycott Israeli goods and contact all stores and supermarkets that stock Israeli goods requesting that they remove them from their shelves in protest at Israeli actions. Picket shops like Marks and Spencer who are long time supporters of Israel.
4] Protest
Attend protest rallies in your localities and nationally to make your voice heard.
Attend the next national demonstration:
London
Saturday 10 January 2009

5] Prayer
It is time we prayed as individuals and in congregation for the people of Gaza. Request your mosque and religious institutions to hold collective prayers.
DON’T STOP UNTIL THE KILLING STOPS
Remember to phone/email/write DAILY until the killing stops. We can help bring about a change.

Dear [name of MP]
Re: Massacre of innocent civilians in Gaza
I am writing as your seriously concerned constituent with regard to the latest barbaric actions of Israel. On Saturday 27th alone, the first day of bombing, over 250 individuals lost their lives, many of them children and women. Although Israel has claimed that it attacked military targets in Gaza, the reality is that it attacked one of the most densely-populated regions in the world and destroyed housing as well as police centres.
This relentless attack against innocent Palestinian civilians is yet another example of Israel's violent and inhumane policy towards the occupied territories, in the midst of an enforced siege on Gaza forcing its residents into extreme poverty and misery. Such brutal measures not only show a complete disregard for human life but flaunt all understanding of international law, including the Hague Convention and the Fourth Geneva Convention. Images of the massacre will inevitably send shockwaves throughout the entire world. This will create further hostility towards Israel and, I fear, those who support such horrific actions.
I call upon you to demand that Israel immediately stops its bloody campaign in the Palestinian territories in general and the Gaza Strip in particular. I urge you and your party to condemn such barbarity and put pressure upon the Israeli government to allow vital humanitarian aid to reach the impoverished Gazan population. I also ask you to dissociate yourself from any Friends of Israel group, if indeed you are a member or supporter, until Israel stops committing war crimes and massacres against the Palestinians, and until Israel fulfils the over 100 UN resolutions it is in violation of and abides by International Law.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly regarding the immediate action you have taken in this matter.

CBC News
Video Israel Doesn’t Want You to See
"This video was not actually supposed to be aired. The arrangement is this, all the three Israeli networks agree that if the army doesn`t like what`s filmed, the footage is never broadcast. In this case, the army decided this video is too embarrassing, too damaging so it ordered it shelved. But israel`s Channel 2 decided to break the embargo and the army and the government and a lot of viewers did not like what they saw".
No, It's NOT a mistake. It's the way of life for Palestinians everyday under Occupation. The oppressed are called Terrorists!!! What kind of Justice is this?!!!

Its horrifing to watch the death toll rise and be helpless to stop it. I wish iran/hezbollah would step in. America AGAIN is behind the attacks, i read paper that said bush white house was very pleased with the attack.
May i ask something. Every country is viewed as a whole. So if britian does something wrong, every person gets blamed for its actions, even the ones trying to stop it. Do you think there are people like this in america and israel?
