International Protests Against Assault on Palestine

Mass protests have swept across the world in protest at Israel’s murderous assault on the Palestinian Authority.

From the Middle East to Asia and Europe, tens of thousands have condemned the Israeli army’s brutal occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip and demanded an end to the siege of Yasser Arafat in Ramallah.

Their anger has been directed in equal measure against the regime of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and the US administration of President George W. Bush, which is held responsible for enabling Israel’s onslaught.

In the Lebanon, protests involving thousands of Palestinian refugees housed in squalid displacement camps have sprung up. Demonstrations took place in Rashidieh refugee camp, Bourj Shamali and Lebanon’s largest camp and Ain Al-Hilweh on the outskirts of Sidon.

Shop owners in Sidon closed their businesses on April 2 in order to join the protests, which were the largest by Palestinians in Lebanon since the 1991 Gulf War. Demonstrators chanted, “We want to blow up embassies if Arafat becomes a martyr. We want to hijack planes if Arafat becomes a martyr.

CMAQ: Vie associative


Collectif à Québec: n'existe plus.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
