Neste momento de greve de fome de mais de 1.600 prisoneiros palestinos, dentre eles os lideres mais importantes dos partidos que compoem a OLP (Organizacao pela Libertacao da Palestina), Israel, em vez de acatar as demandas mais do que razoaveis dos grevistas, resolveu celebrar os 50 anos de ocupacao da Palestina com festas e discursos tonitruantes.Nesse interim, nos EUA, em uma demonstracao deploravel de subserviencia a AIPAC, os cem senadores enviaram uma carta aberta a ONU criticando o movimento BDS e o alto comissariado para refugiados e solicitando que Israel seja tratado do mesmo jeito que os demais membros. Como se ha decadas nao fosse privilegiado.Em defesa de sua assinatura, o democrata Bernie Sanders recorreu a um antigo refrao da AIPAC de apontar paises infratores de direitos humanos, tipo tirar lixo de sua porta e por na do vizinho.Esse subterfugio e usado frequentement para desviar a atencao do fato irrefutavel que o problema e que Israel e uma potencia militar que ocupa e oprime um pais desarmado e nao um problema domestico.Enquanto isso, Mahmoud Abbas e Donald Trump se reuniam para nada. E os torcedores do Celtic da Escocia, mais uma vez, demonstraram que futebol pode rimar com ativismo e solidariedade.The Glasgow Celtic football club supported the Palestinian prisoners on junger strike with large banners and Palestinian flags at a football match on Saturday 6 May.

It is the turn of Amnesty International Events Copenhagen to challenge you to the salt water challenge in support of and in solidarity with the Palestinian hunger strikers. Anistia Internacional de Copenhagen desafia voce ao #SaltWaterChallenge Before getting to the point of the hunger striking prisoners, I must mention last week's useless meeting between Palestinian unpopular president Mahmoud Abbas and Binyamin Netanyahu's buddy Donald Trump, in Washington. Abbas ambassador to the United States, Husam Zomlot, recently said, When you have a president who from day one commits himself to peace, and invests time and effort in reaching a solution, thats the definition of a historic opportunity. President Trump has the political capital, the relationships with all the parties involved, and the will to actually achieve this goal.It is desperate to believe there is hope with Trump. But whether one agrees with the Palestinian ambassadors assessment or not, Trump certainly does have more political space to arbitrate this conflict than his predecessor, Barack Obama did. Trump is not likely to face the kind of attacks from the Right Obama did. And if he makes any credible progress, it would be difficult for Democrats and even pro-Israel lobbying groups to stand against him.But few, aside from Abbas government, seem to believe that is what Trump actually intends. His close relationship with Netanyahu and
