Protests across the globe
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7809656.stm


Tens of thousands of Israeli Arabs earlier staged a protest in the northern Israeli town of Sakhnin about the bombing raids on Gaza.

The protest in Sakhnin was one of the biggest by Israeli Arabs in 10 years

Demonstrators waved Palestinian flags, and chanted slogans denouncing Israeli leaders, including "Gaza will not surrender to the tanks and bulldozers" and "Don't fear, Gaza, we are with you".

Following a minute's silence, Sakhnin mayor Mazen Ghanaim said the Israeli military was "committing crimes in Gaza before the eyes of the international community", but also called on militants to stop firing rockets into Israel.

1. How about "If the People of the Gaza don't have a 'Right to Life,' do you?
I'll go get some new foam-core board today and have this sign for use tomorrow during our usual Sunday gathering at our street-corner.

"'We' killed >7,000 Iraqis in Shock 'n' Awe."
