As if the people of Gaza have not suffered enough, Israel has escalated its brutal assault on Gaza in the last 24 hours.
Last Saturday a fantastic 100,000 marched to the Israeli embassy – this Saturday’s demonstration is even more important.
Over the weekend more than 150 Palestinians have been killed, 67 in one attack alone last night including 17 children and 14 women. The media continues to accept the rhetoric of ‘limiting casualty levels’ and ‘targeting militants’ and the politicians refuse to condemn Israel and call their action what it is, a massacre of innocents.
Why? Because Israel remains the West’s main ally in the Middle East.
That is why we have called a national demonstration this Saturday starting at the Israeli Embassy and marching to Parliament. Last week 100,000 of us descended on the Israeli Embassy, this Saturday we are taking our anger to the centre of political power in Britain.
National demonstrations are the best way to show the government that the majority in Britain oppose their disgraceful support for the Israeli assault.
We are asking all our supporters around the country to organise transport to get the maximum numbers to London next Saturday.
Check for details as they emerge on the Stop the War web site. We will email further details later in the week.
National Demonstration: Saturday 26th July.
Meet 12 noon at Israeli Embassy. Nearest tube: High Street Kensington. March to Parliament.
Organised by Stop the War, PSC, Friends of Al-Aqsa, CND, BMI, MAB and Palestine Forum in Britain.
