While we were busy with election - Hizbullah was demonstrating

Hizbullah demonstrated over "Israel" Gaza genocide

Source: Agencies, 03-03-2008

Hundreds of Hizbullah supporters gathered Sunday at a border fence separating Lebanon and "Israel" to protest ongoing "Israeli" attacks in the Gaza Strip that have killed nearly 70 Palestinians in two days and more than 100 in less than a week. Up to 1,000 supporters carrying Lebanese and Palestinian flags took part in the demonstration at the Fatima Gate border point in the Southern village of Kfar Kila across from "Israeli" outposts on the other side.

"Death to 'Israel'," some of them shouted. Others carried banners that read in Arabic: "The blood of our sons in Palestine will not be in vain."

Nearly 70 Palestinian, roughly half of them civilians, were killed in two days of "Israeli" attacks against Gaza. At least 54 Palestinians were killed in fighting Saturday, the highest single-day death toll in more than seven years of violence. Two "Israeli" soldiers also were killed.

The attacks have caused fury in the Arab street, with demonstrations Saturday in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria, Jordan and Lebanon.

The attacks have been denounced by many Arab governments, including Lebanon, the Gulf countries, Egypt and Jordan, while Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has described them as a "holocaust" against the Palestinian people.

Also Sunday, hundreds of students held protests near the headquarters of the Arab League in Beirut, calling on Arab leaders to stop "Israeli" aggression and support the Palestinians. Some of the protesters burned "Israeli" and American flags and chanted slogans against the two nations.

Thousands of Palestinian refugees in South Lebanon also protested against "Israel's" assault on Gaza. Women and children took part in the protest at the Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp in Sidon on Saturday.

"Death to 'Israel'," shouted the angry protesters, carrying black flags and pictures of Palestinian children killed in the latest "Israeli" attack.

The protesters also burned "Israeli" and American flags.

They called on Hizbullah's leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, to avenge the killing of Palestinian children.

Facts :
1. “Gaza is on the threshold of becoming the first territory to be intentionally reduced to a state of abject destitution, with the knowledge and encouragement of the international community.”

2.A human rights coalition said the humanitarian situation in Gaza has reached its worst point since Israel captured the territory in 1967.

3.Is Israel using ‘thermobarbaric’ weapons?
"One might think they were burnt, but they are not, only their colour is dark, they're inflated & they smell terrible ..."
