Solidarity with Palestine
Brighton Demonstration
Saturday 24th October
Meet 1.00 – 1.30pm: Brighton Clock Tower
Join us on Saturday to demonstrate in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Activities have been planned and will be explained at the Clock Tower.
Since the beginning of 2015, 80* Palestinians have been killed by both Israeli forces and settlers. Since the beginning of October alone, Israel has killed 50* Palestinians, including 9 children. Israel has also injured thousands of Palestinians, including at least 1,850 by live ammunition across the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
In the last few weeks the extraordinary brutality of the Israeli state has been met by a new wave of mass resistance and popular protest throughout Palestine. There have been united mass demonstrations throughout Palestine – in the West Bank, Gaza and inside the Israeli state. [click here for more details]
Palestinians are uniting in their struggle against the vicious and murderous Israeli regime that is intent on wiping them out of history.
They are appealing to people of conscience around the world to mobilize in solidarity with this resistance and join the movement for Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions.
We are supporting this call with our 2nd demonstration this Saturday. We urge you to join us!
