Following the massacre aboard the Mavi Marmara, there was no attenuation of Israeli Occupation Forces violence in suppressing the ongoing resistance to the Occupation. At last Friday's peaceful protest in the village of Nabi Saleh violence erupted after Israeli Occupation Forces blocked the marchers from progressing further at the edge of the village and doused them with copious amounts of tear gas, local shabab responded with flurries of thrown rocks and unusual for the Nabi Saleh protests there were no reported injuries. read full story / add a comment

The IPSC has been in contact with the MV Rachel Corrie in the past few minutes. The siege breaking ship is currently 80 miles from Gaza, and they expect to arrive in Gazan territorial waters at around 9 or 10am local time. All on board on the ship were in good spirits, but very anxious as to the actions the Israelis might take. It is currently pitch black at their location and they cannot see very far - there are no lights of other ships on the horizon. At the time of the call, there had been no communication with the Israeli navy. read full story / add a comment

From a Kurdish point of view I salute the brave peace activists and I sympathize with the situation of the Palestinian people in the face of oppression by the Israeli state. Yet we cannot forget that both Turkey and Iran continue to commit atrocities against the Kurdish population. read full story / add a comment |
