U.N. Day in
Solidarity with the Palestinian People (Nov. 29, 9 a.m. PT/12 p.m. ET/7 p.m.
Palestine): Last month, Israel declared key Palestinian human
rights and civil society groups “terrorist organizations.” AFSC’s partner in
the No Way to Treat a Child campaign, Defense for Children
International-Palestine, is one of the groups criminalized by this effort to
silence critical work. AFSC and partners will discuss recent developments in
a special Facebook Live event. Join

Letter from George Paulson, 5-27-21
And for some more really good news—a judge just overturned the
state of Georgia’s anti-BDS law. Georgia, like a disappointingly large
number of other states, enacted a law that required you, if you want to work
for that state in any capacity or to have a business contract with that state,
to sign on to not boycott Israel. In other words, good bye free speech,
hello a loyalty oath to a foreign power (and Democrats worry about Russia!).
The lawsuit was brought by the fantastic journalist Abby Martin. If
you’re not familiar with her, you are in for a real treat. She is a brave,
even fierce critic of the American Empire (her show is called “Empire Files”)
and its two Middle East Proxies.
Here is a link to an interview she just did with Miko Peled from
Jerusalem. Miko, if you’re not familiar with him, is an Israeli, the son
of a famous general, who, after his niece was killed in a suicide bus bombing
in Jerusalem, rejected Zionism and became a vocal advocate for Palestinian
human rights. One of the most informative interviews I’ve heard on this
subject.
Here is his interview with Abby Martin:

Also, Abby is the one who made the great documentary film, “Gaza
Fights for Freedom.” We’ve watched it, gut wrenching, but jaw dropping.
It’s a couple of years old, which is truly stunning, because all the
death and destruction we’ve witnessed in Gaza in recent days is ON TOP of what
is shown in this film.

Ok, be well my friends, please share, I look forward to seeing
you live soon!
Peace,
George

“Support
a Free Democratic Palestine.” FREE PALESTINE MOVEMENT (FPM)
|

The 1st Anniversary of
the 'Great March of Return'
is March 30. This is also the commemoration known as Land
Day to Palestinians. Land Day commemorates a massacre of
6 Palestinian 'citizens' of Israel who were protesting the Israeli
government's appropriation of thousands of donums of Palestinian land in
1976.
Today, more than 40 years later, Israel is murdering
Palestinian protesters in the Great March of Return on a daily basis.
While claiming that others threaten the state of Israel, the Israeli
occupation of the ancient land of Palestine (and parts of Lebanon and Syria
as well) is increasingly genocidal.
What follows is a statement by the One State Assembly in support of One
Democratic State of Palestine. Please sign and endorse the
statement to support
the Palestinian right of return and a future for an open democratic state in
historic Palestine rather than an ethno-religious encampment. Sign
before March 30th and stand with the Palestinian people and Palestine on Land
Day.
Call for A Palestine Liberation Movement and One Democratic
State of Palestine [I could find no contact more recent than
2019. –D]
