In 1982, Israel and it’s allies killed thousands of Palestinians. 27 years later, the killing continues. “But there were women lying in houses with their skirts torn up… children with their throats cut and rows of young men shot in the back after being lined up against an execution wall… their bodies were tossed into rubbish heaps alongside discarded US army ration tins, Israeli army equipment and empty bottles of whiskey.” – Acclaimed journalist, Robert Fisk, describing what he found in the aftermath of the Sabra and Shatila refugee camp massacres, carried out by Lebanese Phalangists with the support of the Israeli army, during the 16-18th of September 1982. In 2009, Israel continues to pursue a policy of systematic cruelty and brutality towards the Palestinians: following the December/January invasion, Gaza is still in rubble and the West Bank is more fragmented than ever. Now, more than ever, Palestine needs our solidarity.
