& the Palestine Struggle Against Zionism & for Self-Determination

For
 14 days Zionist Israeli forces have been bombarding Palestinians in 
Gaza with indiscriminate air strikes, and for the last five days the 
attacks have intensified with a ground invasion of Israeli tanks, 
weapons and troops. This massacre of Palestinian people has reached 508 
people and rising, with women and children as half of the victims and 
over 3000 injured. Hospitals, homes, mosques, schools and the electrical
 system have all been targeted and have faced complete destruction. 
These horrific, brutal, criminal and vicious attacks against the 
Palestinian people are a repeat of what the Palestinian people have 
faced time and time again in over 66 years of the Zionist Israeli 
occupation of Palestine.

Around the world peace-loving people are
 coming together in defense of Palestine. In cities and towns worldwide 
hundreds of thousands of people have marched and protested on the 
streets to demand an end to the Israeli attacks on Gaza. To bring a true
 end to brutality Palestinians are facing under Israeli attacks, the 
energy and spirit of these protests must continue to demand an end to 
the Zionist Israeli occupation of Palestine. Join this forum to discuss 
Israel’s current attacks on Gaza and the movement for Palestinian 
self-determination.
