One of our regular fortnightly demos in Covent Garden. The Ahava shop is still there and so we are still demonstrating. Tescos is still helping in Israel's ongoing expansion into Palestinian territories and in its theft of Palestinian resources: primarilly water and natural gas alhough the trucks also never stop extracting and transporting the stone and gravel etc that Israel finds in its illegal West Bank quarries; whatever Palestine has, Israel steals. This only goes to prove who the real owners of the land are. No true landowner would pollute and lay waste his own precious homeland. Israel knows that it has no legal or moral rights to Palestine - that is why we have all the stealth and skullduggery, why Israel grabs all it can before the cops arrive; and unfortunately the only policeman we have at the moment is Barack Obama.

As the conspiracy of silence continues, Gaza is on tre verge of a health crisis

PressTV - Gaza on verge of health crisis:

Yousef al-Helou, Press TV, Gaza

"Palestinian medical sources in Gaza have warned of an imminent health crisis due to lack of medicines, according to the health ministry 180 essential medications and 160 medical items have run out, this will endanger the lives of 100's of patients especially those who suffer from chronic dieses, the officials put some of the blame on the PA for failing to deliver Gaza's monthly share. The Gaza strip and the West Bank are separated geographically by Israeli military checkpoints, and no shipment of medicines and goods can reach Gaza without Israel's supervision.

The severe shortage will further deteriorate the health sector which already has been suffering due to shortage of fuel needed to run electrical generators, most of Gaza hospitals rely on huge generators due to frequent power cuts

Officials stressed on the necessity to find a solution to the root of the problem which started 5 years ago when Israel imposed its siege. The ongoing blockade restricts the delivery of non-food items, including fuel, medicines and construction materials needed to refurbish hospitals and build new facilities.

Restrictions on the movement of people and denying patients permits to seek advanced medical attention abroad has led to the death of over 350 patients so far.

On several occasions, health officials have called on the international community to pressure Israel to put an end to its illegal siege which has had a sever negative impact on Gaza's population

US congressional candidates, the zionist lobby and the “I love Israel more" card

PressTV - Zionist regime backs pro-Israel US congressional candidates:

Sun Jul 31, 2011 9:7AM GMT
Gary Anthony Ramsay, Press TV, New York

"Voters here will decide in seven weeks who will replace NY Congressman Anthony Weiner who resigned in disgrace after a lewd texting scandal.

At first the two candidates appeared to focus on honesty and integrity but now both men have pulled out their “I love Israel cards”

David Weprin a Democrat.. Is opposing President Obama on Israeli foreign policy specifically Obama's call for Israel to honor 1967 pre war borders.

He is an orthodox Jew and has picked the endorsement of Jewish Senator Joe Lieberman. On the other side is Republican Bob Turner. He is not Jewish but addition to his own Obama bashing.

He has also declared his support for a strong Israel in the Middle east. Turner has also pick up endorsements and donations from high profile Jewish leaders.

International human right lawyer Lamis Jamal Deek says this race is an example of the power and reach of Israel and the Israeli lobbing arm AIPAC on US politics.

AIPAC donates billions of dollars to election campaigns every year.. to Democrats and republican. The groups also funds intellectual think tanks like the Brookings institute where Presidents including Barack Obama have sought counsel on foreign and domestic issues. To win in the ninth district you have to win the Jewish vote.

The Jewish representation in the 9th Congressional district is not like others in the country. About one third of this district of more than 600 thousand people is made up of Jews compared to the U.S . population of 300 million people where only 2 percent are Jewish.

While some see AIPAC's role on both parties as a healthy Deek its not only excessive, its dangerous.

Special elections usually draw little attention in the U.S. and fewer people come out to vote. But given the current gridlock of D.C. politics … Every seat counts…. and this election could not only help decide how Middle east policy is molded but also whose fingers are in the clay.

Palestine's economic crisis - Remember Palestine-07-30-2011

Recent reports state that an economic crisis looms and has already taken grip of Palestine.

Workers struggle as they are separated from their farmland by the Apartheid Wall, jobs at UN agencies are limited to one three month contract per person, fishermen suffer attacks and the occupation limits progress leaving people dependent on aid. The US Congress has threatened to cut off aid, which reached $550 million in the fiscal year 2011, if the Palestinians continue with their plans for attaining statehood. In this edition of the show we look at the state of the economy, the factors keeping it depressed and the plans in place to lift it up.
