On January 11, an estimated 10,000 people rallied in front of the Israeli consulate in midtown New York in support of Israel’s attack on the Gaza Strip. The rally, which was organized by UJA-Federation of New York and the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York in cooperation with the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, featured speeches by New York’s most senior lawmakers. While the crowd was riled to righteous anger by speeches about Hamas evildoers, the event was a festive affair that began and ended with singing and joyous dancing.

Ógra Shinn Féin in Strabane have called on people of conscience in the local community to boycott Israeli goods and companies, in protest at Israel’s murderous onslaught on the people of Gaza.

The youth movement has said that this is a practical action in which people who feel disgusted at Israeli terror can take to support the beleaguered people of the Gaza strip.

The manifest deficiencies of the economic system that has dominated the world in recent decades make this an opportune time to consider alternatives. Where better to start than with an examination of the unconventional ideas espoused by radical Irish men and women of the past? An ‘Irish Socialist Lives’ symposium offers an opportunity to do just that. read full story / add a comment

I am sitting in the olive groves at the little hut of a friend whose land is in the South of Jayyous. The fire is burning telling me that the family has been here this morning lovingly tending to the land.

The sun is shining; it rays restoring some of the hope and energy taken from the community after yesterday’s demonstration. Walking here, I passed a family sitting under the shade of their olive trees having their lunch replenishing their bodies after working hard on their land. The land and the people are at ease.

It is Shabbat and so the machinery of occupation, hydraulic excavators, multi terrain loaders and compactors “destroyers and usurpers, gnawing, biting, breaking, hacking and burning” their way through the land working to clear the area of the olive tress that are on the land of the farmers of Jayyus, are quiet and still.

Thought me and my friends were the only ones until you came on 5Live the other day. Never thought my generation would ever come with such a creative group. So long as you are not anti-Muslim, I'm with you.

Standing up against faith based "justice" is brave and necessary. Thank you for your campaign.

You have to win this for our children.

These are only some of the thousands of messages we have received from people in Britain and across the world in support of One Law for All Campaign against Sharia Law in Britain since our launch on December 10, 2008 – International Human Rights Day. In less than a month, the campaign has mobilised the support of many well known personalities and organisations and gathered over 5,000 signatures. Since then, we have been busy organising for International Women's Day.
