Photo-story from the EI: commemoration of Gaza assault all over the globe

Local Editor, 6-1-2010

The electronic intifada (a not-for-profit, independent publication committed to comprehensive public education on the question of Palestine, the "Israeli"-Palestinian conflict, and the economic, political, legal, and human dimensions of "Israel's" 40-year occupation of Palestinian territories) presented yesterday a photo-story on its site bringing a global image of solidarity with Palestine.

This comes among a bouquet of reports, features and articles that commemorate the "Israeli" onslaught on Gaza.

Approximately one year ago, "Israel" unleashed its assault on the Gaza Strip -- amidst its ongoing siege and occupation -- killing more than 1,400 Palestinians, the majority of them civilians.

Thirteen "Israelis" were killed during the attacks, most of them soldiers. "Israel" has since been accused of war crimes by numerous international human rights organizations as well as in a UN-commissioned inquiry led by South African Judge Richard Goldstone.

The attacks sparked mass demonstrations around the world in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Solidarity actions have continued, and a number of groups have attempted to travel to Gaza and break the siege. The below images are from around the one year anniversary, when many groups around the world again led demonstrations to show their continued solidarity with Palestine.
