Activists trickle to Lebanon to protest Israel war
BEIRUT (Reuters) - International and local activists are planning on
Saturday to bring a civilian convoy to southern Lebanon, worst hit by
Israel's 28-day-old war on Hizbollah, to deliver aid and show
solidarity with suffering residents.
"We hope this will be the first of what will become continuous convoys
to show that there are civilians being killed and affected by this
war," Adam Shapiro, an American documentary filmmaker and human rights
activist, told Reuters.
"If governments are failing to act, we as citizens will."
Shapiro, 34, is among several activists from the International
Solidarity Movement (ISM), a pro-Palestinian group that usually works
to bring attention to Israeli occupation of Palestinian land, who have
traveled to Lebanon seeking non-violent ways to support local groups
protesting the war.
This time, however, the activists will not be facing Israeli soldiers,
tanks or bulldozers but aerial bombardment.
One idea they are considering is to bring large numbers of people,
rather than a few activists, to the Hizbollah strongholds of south
Lebanon or south Beirut to try to protect them or draw attention to the
plight of civilians there.
So far, activists who have shown up in Lebanon from the United States
and Europe are part of an exploratory group, but Shapiro believes they
can attract hundreds more, including from Arab states, once they come
up with a strategy.
"In the United States people were already contacting us, Lebanese and
internationals interested in coming to Lebanon to see how we could
help," Shapiro said.
At least 961 people, mostly civilians, have been killed in Lebanon
since the war began on July 12 with Hizbollah's capture of two Israeli
soldiers. Israel's total death toll is 100.
Lebanon will be the first time the ISM has worked outside the
Palestinian territories, though individual activists have been to other
war zones such as Iraq as human shields.
Israeli authorities view them as trouble makers and sometimes accuse
them of inciting violence.
"I'm not sure we can be as ambitious as to end the war but certainly we
can change the dynamic," Shapiro said. "In the media this has so far
been portrayed as a war between Israel and Hizbollah. Maybe we can
change the dynamic so it is seen as what it is, Israel versus all of
Lebanon."
In 2003, an Israeli soldier shot British ISM activist Tom Hurndall as
he helped Palestinian children cross the road to avoid gunfire in the
Gaza Strip. Hurndall later died. An Israeli military tribunal sentenced
his killer to eight years in jail.
The same year, 23-year-old U.S. activist Rachel Corrie was killed by an
Israeli bulldozer while trying to stop the Israeli military from
demolishing Palestinian homes in the Gaza Strip. An Israel probe
concluded Corrie's death was an accident.

 plight of civilians there.
Ovvero: resistenza non violenta ausiliaria di quella più violenta e razzista in 
circolazione al mondo.
Chiara la speranza di produrre qualche cadavere di giovanotto fanatizzato 
occidentale in modo da "scuotere le coscienze" e riuscire là dove il teatro di 
Qana ha fallito.
Chiunque sia il cadavere, si può scommettere che non sarà di certo quello degli 
orchestratori di questa vicenda, che alla pelle ci tengono, visto che occorre 
essere vivi per strumentalizzare i cadaveri altrui.

Lebanon or south Beirut to try to protect them
Proteggere dei terroristi razzisti.
Cioe' quello che l'ISM ha sempre fatto.
Una ulteriore riprova di che razza di persone siano.

Gia' che ci siamo:  Il padre di Adam Shapiro, insegnante di Talmud in
una scuola Ebraica-ortodossa, e' stato cacciato via dal lavoro E dalla
casa dove abitava a causa
delle opinioni politiche del figlio.   Commento per questo caso
eclatante di fascismo?

casa dove abitava a causa delle opinioni politiche del figlio.
Se lo dici tu.... :)

 eclatante di fascismo?
I razzisti sono razzisti.
Vorrai dire mica che č colpa loro?
Ci sono nati cosě.
