Distrurbing video of massacre and more

[For those in the area of Bethlehem today] On the occasion of the anniversary of the Deir Yassin Massacre, the Popular Committee Against the Wall and Settlements in Beit Sahour invite you to see the film "Youm Ilak o Youm Aleik" (English and Arabic) that speaks of the Nakba and villages including Deir Yassin. The film will be shown at 6 PM On Friday 9 April 2010 at the hall of the Peace Park in Ush Ghrab, Beit Sahourhttp://www.deiryassin.org/  

[Truly disturbing video] WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded. Videos (short and long version) at http://collateralmurder.com/

This is pure malice (see the video of how those who support apartheid and racism work):
“How are we going to beat back the anti-Israel divestment resolution at Berkeley? We’re going to make certain that pro-Israel students take over the student government and reverse the vote. That is how AIPAC operates in our nation’s capitol. This is how AIPAC must operate on our nation’s campuses.”

Testimony: Israelis beat, pour boiling water on Palestinian worker

Peace for Israelis and Palestinians? Not without America's tough love. By Jonathan Ben-Arzi
An Israeli student explains why the US should act on moral outrage over Israel’s discriminatory policies before it’s too late. [Ben-Arzi spent a year and a half in military jail for refusing to serve the apartheid army]

Thousands of Palestinian political prisoners in Israeli jails began a hunger strike demanding basic rights like the right to see their families.   And hundreds of children lit “Freedom Candles” in Gaza on child day demanding to see their imprisoned parents.
