Alert From the The Palestinian American Congress http://www.pac-national.org
Since the Israeli “redeployment” from Gaza on August 20, 2005, Israeli occupation troops killed 694 Palestinians and wounded four thousand and is literally starving the Gaza strip. Israel also took advantage of media preoccupation with midterm elections to commit new war crimes including large scale home demolitions and indiscriminate firing on peaceful demonstrators. : The atrocities of the last few days could intensify unless we focus attention on them and insist they be covered by the media and stopped immediately.
Palestinians have also called for an international week of action against apartheid, against the wall, and against the ghettoization of Palestine for November 9-16
