Join World-Wide Demonstrations on May 15, 2011, Protesting the Israeli Occupation of Palestine, Demanding Expulsion of Israeli Ambassadors

Al-Jazeerah, CCUN, May 9, 2011


Dear friends all over the world:

You who reject injustice and oppression,

The People's Committees in Palestine invites you to participate in mass demonstrations at the Israeli embassies in Europe, the United States, and Arab countries.

Israel has blatantly disregarded all the international and human rights laws.

It is time to say no to oppression. No to occupation - and yes to a just and fair peace.

We must be aware that the two main purposes of the demonstrations are:

1 - We are demanding the expulsion of the Israeli ambassadors and to cut off relations with the occupying power. We are not to be partners in the killing of the innocent children of Palestine.

2 - We are standing in solidarity to support the third popular uprising to end the occupation.

Abduction of a boy and wounding of another in a unity march in Bil'in

http://www.bilin-ffj.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=357&Itemid=1


One boy abducted by Israeli soldiers and another injured in addition of dozens of cases of severe asphyxia by inhaling tear gas during the clashes that took place in the village of Bil'in. This happens to be the result of the Israeli's repression of the weekly protest organized by the Popular Committee Against the Wall and the Settlements that takes place every Friday after the midday prayer in the village. The march celebrating the end of the division between Hamas and Fatah started from the center of the village and tried to reach the separation wall.

The Protesters, raised Palestinian flags and banners of all  factions, especially Fatah and Hamas, while chanting the national anthem as a message of welcoming to the signing of the reconciliation agreement and calling for unity and rejection of differences.

Two Bil'in's citizens, dressed as President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen and the head of the political office of Hamas, Khaled Meshaal, carried the coffin of the " Division" and protestors burnt it at the gate of the wall as a message of the permanent end of the division. 

As soon as the protestors reached the fence, Israeli soldiers started firing tear gas, rubber, tutu and live bullets and stink water causing the injuring of 17 years old Mohammad Abu Rahma  who twisted his knee not to mention dozens of cases of asphyxia due to the tear gas.

In the same time soldiers, hiding behind olive trees captured Iyad Al Khatib, 15 years old, beat him and took him away in an unknown place. 

Nevertheless the Popular Committee Against the Wall in Bil'in renew his blessing of the agreement signed in Cairo between Fatah and Hamas in order to keep the Palestinian people together and make a united stand against the occupation
