In de vrijdagse openingsbijeenkomst klaagde Mustafa Barghouti
Israel aan als
“a country of apartheid”. Internationale solidariteit
daartegen is noodzakelijk om Palestina
te bevrijden van kolonialisme zoals ook andere nationale bevrijdingsbewegingen
als
steun internationaal verkregen. Geschetst werd de desastreuze
Israëlische bezettingspolitiek
en opgeroepen werd tot vier activiteiten
- Zorg voor internationale aanwezigheid in Palestina door bezoeken
te organiseren;
kom zelf kijken zoals de ISM doet; internationale aanwezigheid
is erg belangrijk
- Zorg voor verbreking van de huidige westerse boycot van Palestina
- Stop de westerse wapenhandel met Israel
- Dwing uitvoering af van het advies over de muur van het Internationaal
Gerechtshof
zoals overgenomen door de VN

Onderwerp: Please,send a donation for medicine and food convoy
to Palestinians
Help Israeli coalition of peace groups
bring aide to the Palestinians
-besieged, boycotted, occupied-
At the urgent call of our Palestinian contacts Israel peace groups
got together. Something must be done against the collective punishment
of the Palestinian people for how they voted in their democratically
held elections.
We begin our protest June 3, in Tel-Aviv, in the week that the
occupation enters it's 40th year. A week later, June 10, we will
go with a convoy of food and medicines in the direction of besieged
Nablus. On that same day Physicians for Human Rights will get
medicines to Palestinian hospitals elsewhere.
You can help us by taking part in the effort financially.
In the U.S., Canada, U.K., Holland and Germany tax-exempted donations
can be madeto Gush Shalom - reply to this mail for the details
and don't forget to, earmark it for 'Coalition Campaign Medicines
and Food for Palestinians'. Or make your earmarked donation through
Physicians for Human Rights-Israel - see attachment - but please,
inform us that you did it. Donations to PHR-I are enjoying tax-exemption
in Israel and abroad.
We will soon pass on to you in Hebrew, English and Arabica statement
ofthe new Coalition Against Boycott and Siege, including a list
of participating organizations.

PMRS Responds to Killing of 4 Palestinians During Israeli Military
Incursion into Ramallah
Ramallah, 24-05-06: The Palestinian Medical Relief Society’s
(PMRS) Emergency Response Team were at the scene of an Israeli
military incursion into the heart of Ramallah today, during which
4 Palestinians were killed, and 50 others wounded. A further 5
Palestinians were arrested.
The incursion came as the Israeli military’s undercover
Duvdevan unit entered a building in the city’s Clock Square,
allegedly to make an arrest, but were surrounded by a group of
unarmed Palestinians and prevented from leaving the building.
Six Israeli military jeeps entered the city as backup, and were
met by a barrage of stones, garbage cans, and paint launched by
unarmed Palestinian protestors. At this point, the Israeli military
began shooting live bullets and tear gas at protestors, killing
four Palestinians and injuring up to 50 others.
PMRS ambulances helped ferry the dead and wounded to Ramallah’s
Sheikh Zaid Hospital.
PMRS calls for urgent action by the international community to
condemn the killings, to protest ongoing Israeli escalatory military
actions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and to end the financial
and political embargo against the Palestinian people.
Such actions by Israel come in the context of an already fragile
political situation and an impending humanitarian crisis, as the
ability of the Ministry of Health to maintain service provision
and intervene in emergency situations has been weakened by donor
funding cuts.
Today’s tragic events in Ramallah serve to bring two important
facts to the attention of the international community:
1. The Occupation and its associated ills continues; and
2. Such emergency situations brought about by the Occupation
are intensified by the acute financial crisis currently facing
the Palestinian people.
