* Radio Tadamon! Popular Protest in Gaza
http://tadamon.resist.ca/index.php/post/1232

Listen to an interview with Sam Hadeeb from the Popular Committee Against 
the Siege in Gaza. In the face of ongoing Israeli military actions 
directed at the Gaza Strip, which have taken the lives of over one-hundred 
Palestinians within the past week -- including children -- a popular 
committee has formed in Gaza, which has been coordinating a series of 
popular direct actions and appealing for protests lead by social justice 
movements throughout the world.

On Monday, February 25th, the Popular Committee Against the Siege in Gaza, 
organize a major protest, bringing tens-of-thousands of Palestinians on 
the streets of Gaza, to protest the ongoing Israeli closure enforced on 
Gaza, which has left the 1.5 million Palestinians of Gaza without basic 
supplies, without regular electricity and often without clean water. The 
protest aimed to highlight the realities of the ongoing Israeli siege on 
Gaza, which Amnesty International recently deemed a violation of 
international law.

This interview with organized Sam Hadeeb provides a direct perspective on 
popular, or grassroots organizing taking place in Gaza in opposition to 
the ongoing Israeli siege on Gaza, which has been maintained in the 
context of ongoing Israeli military operations throughout the Gaza Strip, 
that have drawn international condemnation, including from the Secretary 
General of the U.N.
